1. Refer to OPERATING CONTROLS for important informa-

tion concerning adjustments for gas pressures, thermostat
settings, top auger timer, meter rolls, and other control set-
tings.  Ensure that Test Firing Procedure has been per-
formed as described in Section 4 of this manual.

2. Measure moisture content of the wet grain and determine

method of drying to be performed.

3. Refer to the DRYING TABLES ahead to determine the

approximate drying time required to provide the required
moisture reduction for the drying method and dryer model
to be used.

4. Refer to the 

START-UP PROCEDURE

within this section.

Perform all procedures listed.

5. Using the recommended drying time, refer to appropriate

DRYING TABLES ahead for suggested dryer settings and
other information.
