J. EXHAUST HI-LIMIT THERMOSTAT
This is a 190° automatic thermostat located in the lint compartment above the lint drawer. This thermostat senses the
heated air after it has passed through the tumbler. If the air temperature gets too hot, the thermostat will shut off the
burner. Tumbler and blower will run, but dryer will not heat. The dryer will not heat until the air temperature cools
down. At this time, the thermostat will reset.
K. LINT DRAWER
The lint drawer is a pullout type and is located at the bottom of the lint compartment. Simply grab the lint drawer
handle, slide out the drawer, brush off the lint, and slide the drawer back in. The lint screen must be kept clean in
order for the dryer to operate properly and efficiently.
L. LINT DRAWER SWITCH
The lint drawer switch is located in the rear of the lint compartment. The lint drawer switch insures that the dryer will
operate only when the lint drawer is completely closed. This is a safety device and should never be disabled.
M. RELAY PANEL ASSEMBLY
The relay panel is located directly in front of the
blower motor (when viewing from the rear). This
panel will include the heat relay and possibly a
reversing relay and transformer depending on
options.
