SECTION VI
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
A. CLEANING
A program 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 air circulation. The
accumulation of lint can restrict this airflow. If the guidelines in this section are met, an ADC dryer will provide
many years of efficient, trouble free, and most importantly safe operation.
WARNING: LINT FROM MOST FABRICS IS HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE. THE
ACCUMULATION OF LINT CAN CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.
WARNING: KEEP DRYER AREA CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE, AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND
LIQUIDS.
NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average usage which is considered six (6) to eight (8)
operational (running) hours per day.
IMPORTANT: Dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6
months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint build up.
Clean lint from lint drawer/screen every third or every fourth load. Inspect lint screen and replace if torn.
NOTE: The frequency can be determined at each location.
WEEKLY
Clean lint accumulation from the lint chamber, thermostat, and microprocessor temperature sensor (sensor
bracket) area.
WARNING: TO AVOID THE HAZARD OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DISCONTINUE
ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY TO THE DRYER.
