6. Make a complete operational check of
ALL safety-related circuits (i.e., lint drawer switch and sail switches
on Gas Models).
7. A reversing tumbler (basket) should never be operated with less than a 250-pound (113.39 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 the opposite direction. For automatic (mode) cycle only,
the spin and stop times are not adjustable and have been preprogrammed into the microprocessor controller
(computer) for a 2-minute spin time and a 7-second dwell (stop) time.
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. Microprocessor Controller (computer) programs/selections...
a. Each microprocessor controller (computer) has been preprogrammed by the factory with the most
commonly used program (parameter) selections. If computer programming changes are required, refer
to the Computer Programming Manual which was shipped with the dryer.
J. PREPARATION FOR OPERATION/START-UP
The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer:
1. Read ALL CAUTION, WARNING, and DIRECTION labels attached to the dryer.
2. Check incoming supply voltage to be sure that it is the same as indicated on the dryer data label affixed
behind the right control box door. In the case of 208 VAC or 230 VAC for dryers with sprinkler option,
verify single-phase (1ø) voltage is correct. THE SUPPLY VOLTAGE MUST MATCH THE ELECTRICAL
SERVICE EXACTLY.
3. GAS MODELS -- Check to assure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer
data label.
4. GAS MODELS -- the sail switch damper assembly was installed and adjusted at the factory prior to
shipping. However, each sail switch adjustment must be checked to assure that this
important safety control is functioning.
5. GAS MODELS -- be sure that ALL gas shut-off valves are in the open position.
6. Be sure ALL side and base panels are on the dryer.
7. Check ALL service doors to assure that they are closed and secure.
8. Be sure the lint drawer is securely in place.
