11. GERMICIDAL BULB REPLACEMENT
All Vortex dryers come standard with an exclusive
germicidal bulb. These bulbs
have an expected lifetime of 10,000 hours. We suggest cleaning these bulbs at the same
frequency as the maintenance schedule to obtain maximum performance.
To inspect, clean and replace bulb:
1. Go to the circuit panel to place breaker or fuse in the OFF position, never attempt to
install, clean interior or service the unit without first shutting off its power source.
2. Use the tamper proof key supplied and turn screws counter-clockwise to remove the
cover from the dryer.
3. Use a soft damp cloth to remove any existing lint or dust.
4. Removing and replacing the bulb is easily done by following FIGURE 3 for the VORTEX
ADA HS OR THE VORTEX ULTRA HS HAND DRYERS and figure 4 for the VORTEX
CLASSIC HS HAND DRYER AND VORTEX JYM HS HAIR DRYER. Simply loosen the
two screws as shown, slide bulb upward, hold the plastic bulb recipient with one hand
and pull out bulb upward with other hand. Please dispose of the bulb according to
storage and disposal instructions under item 8a. For replacement bulbs please go to
www.vortexdryers.com
or contact your local distributor. When replacing new bulb in
bulb recipient please handle with care sliding bulb into recipient, lowering holder in
horizontal position and securing holder with the two screws.
5. After cleaning, reassemble the dryer cover using the tamper proof key supplied to turn
the cover mounting screws clockwise and tighten till snug. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.

6. DANGER Failure to properly ground the unit could result in serious injury and/or death
from severe electrical shock. The hand dryer must be properly grounded for safe
operation. An identified ground connection point is supplied on the hand dryer’s wall plate.
A GFCI protection is recommended in wet or damp locations or as required by local
construction codes.
7. Ultraviolet (UVC) radiation hazard. Over exposure will cause significant eye damage and
may cause skin damage. Do not look into UVC light source.
8. Store and dispose of solvent-based materials, and materials used with solvent-based
materials, in accordance with requirements of local authorities having jurisdiction
Warning: Mercury HAZARD. Caution must be taken not to break GERMICIDAL UVC bulbs
during installation and since these bulbs contain a small amount of mercury which can
cause injury if inhaled or ingested. For more information on clean up and disposal, see
