SECTION V
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
A. CLEANING
A program or schedule should be established for periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various
areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the duct work system. The frequency of this cleaning can best be
determined from experience at each location. Maximum operating efficiency is dependent upon proper air
circulation. The accumulation of lint can restrict this air flow. If the guidelines in this section are met, an ADC
dryer will provide many years of efficient, trouble free and safe operation.
WARNING: LINT FROM MOST FABRICS IS HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE. THE
ACCUMULATION OF LINT CAN CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.
WARNING: KEEP DRYER AREA CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND
LIQUIDS.
NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average usage which is considered six (6) to eight (8)
operational (running) hours per day.
NOTE: Remove power from the machine before performing any maintenance in the machine (cleaning
the lint drawers and both steam coil lint screens are the only exceptions).
