the lo-fire control valve. If the gas
pressure is decreased too much a
popping or fluttering sound will be

DRYER SHUTDOWN
To shut down the dryer, first close

burner is operating, let the dryer
run out of fuel, and it will shut down
automatically due to loss of flame.

and press the dryer power stop
button. Turn off the safety discon-
nect handle on the front of the
power box, and turn off the main
power to the dryer.
Turn on the electric shut off valve to
allow fuel flow to the dryer, if so
equipped. Turn the load switch to
auto and unload switch to one
speed. Push the dryer power start
button, and the controller will se-
quentially start all dryer components
in their proper order. If any switches
are not in their correct position for
staged batch operation, the dryer will
indicate improper switch position,
and will not start until the switches
are in the proper position. After start-
ing, all batch timers will time down
in sequence. When the unload cycle
is complete the timers will automati-
cally reset to their original settings,
and start the dry timer again.
