e. Secure the 28-inch (71.12 cm) diameter exhaust duct transition piece to the dryers’ rectangular exhaust

duct with the 1/4-20 self-tapping screws (supplied with the dryer).

The exhaust duct exits from the rear of the base.

f. On dryers equipped with automatic (piston operated) load doors, reconnect the two (2) poly-flo air lines

that run from the dryer base up to the door pistons.

g. On dryers equipped with a sprinkler option, a separate power supply 

must be

 connected to the sprinkler

circuit located in the right base electrical box.

1) The optional sprinkler water connection is located in the left side of the dryer base.  A 1-inch M.P.T.

water supply line will be connected to the 1-inch F.P.T. pipe connection of the dryer.
