GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow all instructions listed may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
AREA OF USE:
• Keep surrounding area clean and well lit. Cluttered areas invite accidents.
• Do NOT operate in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY:
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do NOT modify the
plug in any way.
• Do NOT override the timer switch.
• Do NOT operate in standing water.
• Do NOT overload with garments.
• Do NOT cut-off or restrict air circulation.
• Do NOT expose MaxxDryXL
™
to rain or snow.
• Use of attachments not recommended or sold by MaxxDry
™
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock,
or injury to persons.
• To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting unit.
• Make sure cord is positioned so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
• An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord
could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round jacketed extension
cords should be used and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.). If the
extension cord is to be used outside, it must be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor
use can also be used for indoor use. The letters “W” or “WA” on the cord jacket indicate that the cord
is suitable for outdoor use.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety and to
prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the
capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than
1 extension to make up the total length, be sure each extension contains at least the minimum
wire size.
ANNOUNCEMENT:
• The MaxxDryXL
™
generates a gentle breeze, a light wind that evenly dries garments so as not to harm.
It is not a hair dryer and is not designed to force a powerful current of air through garments.
• The MaxxDryXL
™
only heats to a gentle temperature. It is not designed to generate high heat as this
would damage footwear.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Plug the
Heavy-Duty
into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
2. Install the 2 extension tubes with anvils provided when drying boots up to 16” tall.
The Heavy-Duty
dries
boots and gloves together or 2 pair of boots and other types of shoes simultaneously by
utilizing the
two 14” extension tubes supplied in the box. Remove the 14” extension tubes and
anvils if you wish
to dry athletic shoes or low back boots only or gloves, children’s shoes or
mittens-drying up to 4
garments simultaneously.
3. Carefully slide footwear onto drying tubes or drying nozzles being careful not to restrict air flow at the
bottom or block air flow into the blower assembly.
4. Select the heat or no heat setting by pressing the rocker switch at the bottom of the motor housing.
5. Turn timer knob clockwise to the 180 minute mark to initially activate the timer switch (please note as
this is very important), then turn knob counter-clockwise back to desired drying time.
HELPFUL TIPS:
1. The
Heavy-Duty
creates a gentle breeze to dry garments gently it is not a hair dryer and does not
create a forceful wind.
2. When placing gloves, mittens or children’s boots and shoes onto the drying tubes or drying nozzles, be
sure not to pinch air circulation.
3. Footwear should be dried after every use to help prevent bacteria and fungus growth, the primary
cause of odor.
4. Smaller footwear and garments will dry quicker than larger items.
5. Your energy efficient
Heavy-Duty
heats to a gentle temperature of around 105° Fahrenheit and uses
“Forced Air” technology quietly and quickly dries wet garments, but it does not generate a forceful air
stream that might possibly damage.
6. At first you may suspect the unit is not operating properly. We recommend you place the back of your
hand near the drying nozzles so you will better feel the gently warmed air stream and to experience
the heat, place footwear and garments onto the dying nozzles for a period of 30 minutes then touch
inside the garment to feel the gentle heat.
7. Remove extensions to dry Ski Boots.
OPERATION TIME:
• Timer must turn past 1 hour to activate. For drying time less than 1 hour, turn timer knob clockwise past
1 hour mark and counter clockwise back to desired time.
• 1 to 3 hours, but please avoid over-drying.
• Drying time varies depending upon extent of moisture as well as temperature and humidity.
• We recommend a minimum of 1 hour every time your shoes or boots are used.
• While in operation, the unit although relatively quiet, produces minimal noise. This is a normal condition
and does not indicate a problem.
MAINTENANCE:
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the
Heavy-Duty.
Never let any liquid get inside the
motor. Never immerse any part of the motor into liquid.
