H. PREPARATION FOR OPERATION/START-UP
The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer:
1. Read ALL “CAUTION,” “WARNING,” and “DIRECTION” labels attached to the dryer.
2. Check incoming supply voltage to be sure that it is the same as indicated on the dryer data label affixed to
the left sidewall area behind the middle access (control) door. In the case of 208 VAC OR 240 VAC THE
SUPPLY VOLTAGE MUST MATCH THE ELECTRIC SERVICE EXACTLY.
3. Check to assure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer data label.
4. The sail switch damper assemblies are installed and pre-adjusted at the factory prior to shipping. However,
each sail switch adjustment must be checked to assure that this important safety control is functioning.
5. Be sure that ALL gas shutoff valves are in the open position.
6. Be sure ALL back panels (guards) and electric box covers have been replaced.
7. Check ALL service doors to assure that they are closed and secured in place.
8. Be sure the lint drawer is securely in place.
9. Rotate the basket (tumbler/drum) by hand to be sure it moves freely.
10. Check bolts, nuts, screws, terminals, and fittings for security.
11. Check basket (tumbler) bearing setscrews to insure they are ALL tight.
12. Rotate the baskets/tumblers (both top and bottom) by hand to make sure they both move freely.
I. PREOPERATIONAL TEST
ALL dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving the factory. However, a preoperational test
should be performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible that adjustments have changed in transit or
due to marginal location (installation) conditions. Installer must instruct the user on how to correctly operate the
dryer before leaving.
1. Turn on electric power to the dryer.
Open ALL gas shutoff valves.
a. Coin Models Only
1) The light emitting diode (L.E.D.) display(s) will flash back and forth between “FILL” and the
amount needed to start the dryer (i.e., “25”), meaning that the dryer is available and 25¢ is required
to start it.
2) Insert the proper number of coins into coin acceptor. Once the correct amount needed to start the
dryer has been inserted, the L.E.D. display(s) will read “PUSH.”
