C. INTERNAL AIR, ELECTRICAL, and WATER CONNECTIONS

1. Air

a. Front Tilt Piston and Sprinkler Lines

This connection is made at the front of the dryer in the area between the lower heat console section and

the tumbler (basket) base section. To connect the sprinkler air line insert the 1/4 aluminum tubing into

the 1/4 brass compression fitting and tighten the fitting nut. To connect the 3/8 poly-flo tubing to the

corresponding brass fittings, match the marked number on the tube with the number on the brass fitting.

After inserting the corresponding tubes into the brass fittings. Tighten the brass fitting nuts.

b. Rear Tilt Piston Lines

This connection is made at the rear of the dryer in the space between the lower heat console section and

the tumbler (basket) base section. Insert the 3/8 poly-flo tube coming from the tumbler (basket) base

section to the 3/8 brass fitting marked with the corresponding number. Do the same to the second tube

and brass fitting. Tighten the brass fitting nuts.
