Gas dryers are equipped with a factory installed three-prong 15 Amps ~120
Volts (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be
plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut
or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
7-9. Electrical installation
7-10. Gas connections
NOTE: DO NOT connect the dryer to L.P. gas service without converting the
gas valve. An L.P. Conversion Kit must be installed by a qualified gas
technician.
1. Remove the shipping cap from gas pipe at the rear of the dryer.
Before operating the dryer, make sure the dryer area is clean and free
from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors. Also
see that nothing (such as boxes, clothing, etc.) obstructs the flow of
combustion and ventilation air through the louvered panel located on the
rear of the dryer.
9. Run the dryer through a cycle check for proper operation.
NOTE:
On gas dryers, before the burner will light, it is necessary for the gas line to be
bled of air. If the burner does not light within 45 seconds the first time the dryer
is turned on, the safety switch will shut the burner off. If this happens, turn the
dryer to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before making another attempt to light.
NOTE:
Follow instructons supplied with kit.
CAUTION
2. Connect a 1/2 inch (1.27cm) I.D. semi-rigid or approved pipe from gas supply line to
the 3/8 inch (0.96cm) pipe located on the back of the dryer. Use a 1/2 inch to 3/8
inch (1.27cm to 0.96cm) reducer for a connection. Apply an approved thread sealer
that is resistant to the corrosive action of liquified gases on all pipe connections.
3. Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line.
4. Test all connections by brushing on a soapy water solution.
NEVER TEST FOR GAS
LEAKS WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
5. Connect the exhaust duct to the outside exhaust system. Use duct tape to seal
all joints.
6. With the dryer in its final position, adjust one or more of the legs until the dryer is
resting solid on all four legs. Place a level on top of the dryer.
THE DRYER MUST
BE LEVEL AND RESTING SOLID ON ALL FOUR LEGS.
7. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet. NOTE: check to ensure power is
OFF
at
circuit breaker/fuse box before plugging the power cord into the outlet.
