Section 5 Service Procedures
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:
• Disconnect electric power to the dryer(s) before servicing.
• Close gas shut-off valve to gas dryer(s) before servicing.
• Never start the dryer(s) with any guards/panels removed.
• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be
reconnected to ensure that the dryer is properly grounded.

WARNING
IMPORTANT: When reassembling, be sure seal on
exhaust fan cover makes airtight seal on flange of
duct. See Figure 16. If the seal is installed
improperly, the airflow through the exhaust system
will be restricted which can adversely affect dryer
performance.
g. Remove upper and lower air duct assembly.
h. Cylinder Glides and Glide Bracket.
(1.) Unsnap glide from each glide bracket.
(2.) Drill out rivets holding glide bracket to
front bulkhead.
i. Front Cylinder Seal (Figure 28)
When installing the cylinder seal, it is important
to remember these two important steps:
(1.) The stitching on the seal must face towards
the dryer center.
(2.) The short flap must be glued to the
bulkhead and the long flap left loose.
IMPORTANT: The replacement seal can be
adhered to the bulkhead using No. 22506P Sealant.
This is accomplished by applying a bead of sealant
around the entire flanged area where the seal
contacts the bulkhead.
