Install strain relief.
Style 1: Power supply cord strain relief
Remove the screws from a 3/4" (19 mm) UL listed strain relief
■
(UL marking on strain relief). Put the tabs of the two clamp
sections (C) into the hole (B) below the terminal block opening
so that one tab is pointing up (A) and the other is pointing
down (D), and hold in place. Tighten strain relief screws just
enough to hold the two clamp sections (C) together.

the wire insulation on the power supply cord is inside the
strain relief. The strain relief should have a tight fit with the
dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position. Do not further
tighten strain relief screws at this point.
Style 2: Direct wire strain relief
Unscrew the removable conduit connector (A) and any
■
screws from a 3/4" (19 mm) UL listed strain relief (UL marking
on strain relief). Put the threaded section of the strain relief
through the hole (B) below the terminal block opening.
Reaching inside the terminal block opening, screw the
removable conduit connector onto the strain relief threads (C).
