b. Steam Models
1) Check to insure that the steam damper is functioning properly.
a) The steam damper should not “slam” (open or closed) when it reaches the end of (piston)
travel. Additionally, the steam damper should not bind and/or stop during travel. If either of
these conditions occur, the flow control must be adjusted. Refer to the bottom illustration on
page 30 for air adjustment instructions.
6. Make a complete operational check of
ALL safety related circuits (i.e., lint drawer switch, and sail switch
on gas models).
NOTE: To check for proper sail switch operation, open the main door and while holding main door
switch plunger in, start the dryer. The dryer should start but the heat circuit should not be
activated (on). If the heat (burner) does activate, shut the dryer off and make the necessary
adjustments.
7. A reversing basket (tumbler) dryer should never be operated with less than a 79 lb (35.83 kg) load (dry
weight). The size of the load will affect the coast-down and dwell (stop) times. The basket (tumbler) must
come to a complete stop before starting in the opposite direction.
a. Microprocessor Controller (Computer) Dryer Models
1) Spin and dwell (stop) times
are not adjustable in the Automatic Mode and have been preprogrammed
into the microprocessor controller (computer) for 150-seconds spin time in the forward direction
and 120-seconds in the reverse direction with a 5-second dwell (stop) time.
2) Spin and dwell (stop) times are adjustable in the Manual (timed) Mode.
BASKET (TUMBLER) COATING
The basket (tumbler) is treated with a protective coating. We suggest dampening old garments or cloth material
with a solution of water and nonflammable mild detergent and tumbling them in the basket (tumbler) to remove
this coating.
8. Each dryer should be operated through one (1) complete cycle to assure that no further adjustments are
necessary and that
ALL components are functioning properly.
9. Make a complete operational check of
ALL operating controls...
a. Microprocessor controller (computer) programs/selections...
1) Each computer has been preprogrammed by the factory with the most commonly used parameter
(program) selections. If computer program changes are required, refer to the computer programming
manual, which was shipped with the dryer.
