NOTE: To check for proper sail switch operation, open the main door and while holding main door
switch plunger in, start dryer. Dryer should start but heat circuit should not be activated (on).
If the heat system is activated, the sail switch is improperly adjusted and must be adjusted by
bending the actuator arm of the sail switch toward the burner box. If the actuator arm is bent
too far toward the burner box of the dryer, the dryer
may not have heat when needed. After
any adjustment to the sail switch, the above procedure must be repeated to verify proper
operation of the sail switch.
4. The dryer should be operated through one (1) complete cycle to assure that no further adjustments are
necessary and that ALL components are functioning properly.
