Service must be performed by a qualified trained technician,
service agency, or gas supplier. If service is required, contact the
Maytag distributor from whom the equipment was purchased. If
the distributor cannot be contacted or is unknown, contact the
Whirlpool Commercial Laundry for a distributor in your area.
NOTE:
When contacting the Whirlpool Commercial Laundry, be
sure to give them the correct model number and serial number
so that your inquiry is handled in an expeditious manner.

Replacement parts should be purchased from the distributor
from whom the Maytag equipment was purchased. If the
distributor cannot be contacted or is unknown, contact the
Maytag Co. for a distributor in your area.
NOTE:
When ordering replacement parts from the Maytag
distributor or the Maytag Co. be sure to give them the correct
model number and serial number so that your parts order can

Routine Maintenance ___________
A program should be established for the inspection and cleaning
of lint in the burner area, exhaust ductwork, and area around the
back of the dryer. The frequency of inspection and cleaning can
best be determined from experience at each location.
Exhaust duct outlet should be checked periodically for
blockages, and if any found, removed.
Cleaning
A program and/or schedule should be established for periodic
inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various areas
of the dryer, as well as throughout the ductwork system. The
frequency of cleaning can best be determined from experience
at each location. Maximum operating efficiency is dependent
upon proper airflow. The accumulation of lint can restrict this
airflow.
NOTE:
Suggested time intervals shown are for average usage,
which is considered 6 to 8 operational (running) hours per day.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to reinstall all parts removed during
cleaning.
Every 6 months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any
lint buildup.
Suggested Cleaning Schedule
Every Third or Fourth Load
Clean the lint screen every third or fourth load. A clogged lint
screen will cause poor dryer performance. The lint door/ drawer
is located just below the loading door of the dryer. Open the lint
door/drawer, brush the lint off the lint screen, and remove the
lint. Inspect lint screen and replace if torn.
NOTE:
To remove the lint drawer from the dryer first pull the
screen out roughly half way and lift the clip on the lower left side
of the lint drawer up. Now you will be able to pull the lint drawer
completely out.
IMPORTANT:
The frequency of cleaning the lint screen can best
be determined from experience at each location.
Weekly
Clean lint accumulation from lint chamber, thermostat, and
microprocessor temperature sensor area.
90 Days
Remove lint from gas valve burner area with a dusting brush or
vacuum cleaner attachment.
Clean any lint accumulation in and around the motor(s) casing
opening.
NOTE:
To prevent damage, avoid cleaning and/or touching
ignitor/flame-probe assembly.
Every 6 Months
Inspect and remove lint accumulation in customer furnished
exhaust ductwork system and from dryer’s internal exhaust
ducting.
NOTE:
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air. Check back draft dampers in the exhaust ductwork. Inspect
and remove any lint accumulation, which can cause the damper
to bind or stick.
A back draft damper that is sticking partially closed can result
in slow drying and shutdown of heat circuit safety switches or
thermostats.
When cleaning the dryer cabinet(s), avoid using harsh
abrasives. A product intended for the cleaning of appliances is
recommended.
Adjustments
7 Days After Installation and Every 6 Months
Thereafter
Inspect thermostats, motors, bolts, nuts, screws, setscrews,
grounding connections and nonpermanent gas connections
(unions, shutoff valves and orifices). Belts should be examined.
Cracked or seriously frayed belts should be replaced. Complete
an operational check of controls and valves. Complete an
operational check of all safety devices (lint door/drawer switch,
door switches and sail switch switch).door switches and sail
switch switch).
