General Maintenance

1. Clean lint trap daily. Remove lint before or after each day of
operation. A clean lint trap will increase the efficiency of the
dryer and the moisture-laden air will be exhausted outside
more quickly.
2. Keep basket and sweep sheets clean. Clean as often as
needed. The basket and sweep sheets are accessible by
removing the front panel of the dryer.
3. Gas burners, steam coils, electric coils. Check and clean
often.
4. Pulleys and belts. Keep clean as oil and dirt will shorten the
life of a belt. Check periodically for alignment. Pulley shafts
must be parallel and the grooves must be aligned. Check belt
tension periodically. Adjust tension by movement of idler
bracket. Lubricate idler pulley once every two months using
six grams of high temperature grease. Do not over-grease.
5. Electric motor. Keep motor clean and dry. Motors are
packed with sufficient grease for 10 years normal service.
After that, bearings and housing should be cleaned and
repacked one third full with Chevron grease No. SR1-2. See
label on motor for further information.
If motor overheats, check voltage and wiring. Low voltage,
inadequate wiring and loose connections are the main cause
of motor failures.
6. Adjustable leveling bolts. One at each corner permits
accurate alignment of dryer.
To adjust: Block one corner of dryer up off the floor, loosen
hex nut. With wrench, turn bolt clockwise to raise dryer,
opposite to lower. Rear bolts are outside of dryer and front
bolts are inside lint trap compartment.
