K. COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
The model ML-175 dryer requires an external supply of compressed air (2.5 cfm @ 80 PSI for gas models and
6 cfm @ 80 PSI for steam models). For Steam Models, compressed air is necessary for the air operated steam
damper. On both the Steam Model as well as the Gas Models, compressed air is necessary/required for blower
air jet operation...to clean lint from the impellor/fan (squirrel cage).

achieved.
