washers to the 3/4” 11.5 NH hose adapter.
• Screw coupling on by hand until seated on the hose
adapter.
• Using slip-joint pliers, tighten the coupling with an
additional two-thirds turn.
NOTE:
Do not overtighten. Damage to coupling can result.
9. Connect the other end of the new flexible supply line/
coupling with new washers to the water supply valve.
• Screw coupling on by hand until seated on the supply
valve.
• Using slip-joint pliers, tighten the coupling with an
additional two-thirds turn.
NOTE:
Do not overtighten. Damage to coupling can result.
10. Turn water supply to dryer on.
11. Check for leaks.
• Check for leaks at the flexible supply line/coupling, the
3/4”-11.5 NH hose adapter (both ends).
12. Reinstall the rear panel.
13. Reconnect the power.
NOTE:
Do not overtighten. Damage to coupling can result.
Preparation for Operation/Start-Up ___
The following items should be checked before attempting to
operate the dryer:
• Read all “WARNING” and “DIRECTION” labels attached
to the dryer.
• Check incoming supply voltage to ensure that it is the
same as indicated on the data label.
• Ensure that all gas shutoff valves are in the open
position.
• Ensure all back panels (guards) and electric box covers
are in place.
• Ensure the service doors are closed and securely in
place.
• Ensure the lint door/drawer is securely in place.
• Rotate the tumbler (drum) by hand to ensure it moves
freely.
• Check bolts, nuts, screws, terminals, and fittings for
tightness and security.
• Check that the vent is connected to the dryer and is
exhausted to the outdoors.
Preoperational Test ___________________
All dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving
the factory. However, a preoperational test should be
performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible
that adjustments have changed in transit or due to marginal
location (installation) conditions.
Turn on electric power to the dryer.
Refer to the operating instructions for starting your dryer.
Open all shutoff valves.
When a gas dryer is first started (during initial start-up), it
has a tendency not to ignite on the first ignition attempt. This
is because the gas supply piping is filled with air, so it may
take a few minutes for the air to be purged from the lines.
NOTE:
During the purging period, check to ensure that all
gas shutoff valves are open.
Tumbler Coating
The tumbler is treated with an oil coating. To remove this
coating, dampen a good amount of old garments or cloth
material with a solution of water and nonflammable mild
detergent and tumble them in the tumbler without heat to
remove this coating.
Microprocessor Programs/Selections
Each microprocessor controller (computer) has been
preprogrammed by the factory with the most commonly used
parameter (program) selections. If computer program
changes are required, refer to the computer programming
manual, which was shipped with the dryer.
Operating Instructions ________________
Once the load has been put into the dryer and the main door
is closed, start the dryer as follows:
The L.C.D. display reads “SELECT CYCLE” (no cycle in
progress).
Scroll up or down to the desired cycle using the HIGH or
LOW key. Press MED.
The dryer will then start (i.e. blower, tumbler, and heat).
The L.C.D. display will read the name of the selected cycle
and approximate remaining minutes.
NOTE:
The dryer can be stopped at any time by pressing
the “PAUSE” key, at this time the dryer will go into a cycle
pause. If the “STOP/CLEAR” key is pressed again at this
point, the cycle that was in progress will be cancelled and
returned to the “SELECT CYCLE” state.
When the programmed drying time has expired, the non-
coin microprocessor controller (computer) will proceed into
the Cool Down Cycle.
Once the Cool Down Cycle begins at the end of the heat
cycle, the L.C.D. display will read “COOL DOWN”
__/__ MINUTES remaining. At the end of the heat cycle, the
dryer will shut off the heat and continue the fan and tumbler
until the Cool Down Time or temperature is reached.
The dryer tumbler can be stopped at any time by opening
the main door. To restart dryer, shut the main door and press
desired setting.
