A. UNPACKING/SETTING UP
Remove protective shipping material (i.e., plastic wrap, and/or optional shipping box) from dryer.
NOTE: The access keys for the service doors are included in the information packet shipped in
the basket (tumbler). These keys should be removed and put in a safe place yet made
accessible because some will be needed throughout various phases in the installation of
the dryer.
Dryers are shipped with a coin box and coin box faceplate ONLY. The coin box lock is not included and
must be purchased elsewhere or the lock can be ordered as a parts order from the manufacturer.
The dryer can be moved to its final location while still attached to the skid or with the skid removed.
To unskid the dryer, locate and remove the four (4) bolts securing the base of the dryer to the wooden skid. Two
(2) are at the rear of the base, and two (2) are located in the front. Once the bolts are removed, slide the dryer off
the skid.
With the skid removed, to make it easier to slide the dryer into its final position, slightly lower
ALL four (4)
leveling legs, so that the dryer will slide on the legs instead of the base frame. The dryer is equipped with four
(4) leveling legs, one at each corner of the dryer base. The hex head adjustment bolts for the two (2) front
leveling legs are located directly behind the lower access door, and the rear two (2) adjustments are directly
behind the lower rear back (guard) panel.
