operational check of
ALL safety devices (door switches, lint drawer switch, sail switch, burner and hi-limit

C. LUBRICATION
The motor bearings and under normal/most conditions the basket (tumbler) and idler bearings are permanently
lubricated. It is physically possible to relubricate the basket (tumbler) and idler bearings if you choose to do so
even though this practice is not necessary. Use Shell Alvania #2 grease or its equivalent. The basket (tumbler)
and idler bearings used in the dryer DO NOT have a grease fitting. Provisions are made in the bearing housing
for the addition of a grease fitting which can be obtained elsewhere, or from ADC by ordering kit P/N 882159
(basket [tumbler] only), which includes two (2) fittings.
