7. A reversing tumbler (basket) dryer should never be operated with less than a 60 lb. (27 kg) load (dry
weight). The size of the load will affect the coast-down and dwell (stop) times. The tumbler (basket) must
come to a complete stop before starting in opposite direction. For microprocessor controller (computer)
models, with the automatic (mode) cycle only, the Spin Time and Stop Time
are not adjustable. The spin times
and stop times have been preprogrammed into the microprocessor controller (computer) for 120-seconds
spin time and a 5-second dwell (stop) time. (For timer controlled models, refer to the Reversing Timer
Spin/Dwell Adjustments in Section VIII of this manual.)
BASKET COATING
The tumbler (basket) is treated with a protective coating. We suggest dampening old garments or cloth
material with a solution of water and non-flammable mild detergent and tumbling them in the tumbler (basket)
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. Programs/selections (for microprocessor [computer] models Only):
a. 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.
K. SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
If the dryer is to be shut down (taken out of service) for a period of time, the following must be performed:
1. Discontinue electrical power to the dryer either at the external disconnect switch or the circuit breaker.
2. Discontinue the heat supply:
a. GAS MODELS ... discontinue the gas supply.
1) SHUT OFF external gas supply shut-off valve.
2) SHUT OFF internal gas supply shut-off valve located in the gas valve burner area.
b. STEAM MODELS ... discontinue the steam supply.
1) SHUT OFF external (location furnished) shut-off valve.
2) SHUT OFF internal steam valves in the supply lines and the return lines.
