compartment. In the event the insert is not removed, it will be
dislodged once the tumble dryer starts.
For international models, remove bracket from drive motor and
install belt. Remove rear guard by unscrewing the six screws us-
ing a 5/16 inch wrench. After the screws are removed, lift the
panel off the positioning lugs located on the lower guard surface.
Before removing the shipping bracket, install the belt over the
drive motor pulley and the larger idler pulley. Center belt on pul-
leys. Remove the nuts from both ends holding the bracket in
place and remove the shipping bracket from the tumble dryer.
The belt will be tightened to the appropriate tension when the
bracket is removed. Keep bracket in case machine ever needs to
be relocated. Re-install rear guard

Position and Level the Tumble Dryer

The tumble dryer may be moved with or without the skid. To re-
move the skid, unscrew the four shipping bolts, and discard them.
To fit a 170 and 200 tumble dryer (with shipping skid) through a
8.0 foot [2.4 meters] high door, you must remove the front access
panel. The upper 3.0 inches [76 mm] of the gas heater must also
be removed on 170 gas tumble dryers. Removing the entire gas or
steam heater assembly and the shipping skid, will reduce the
height of the 120 tumble dryer to 70 inches [1,780 mm], and the
170 and 200 tumble dryer to 75 inches [1,910 mm].
Level the tumble dryer to within 0.13 inch [3.3 mm] from front-
to-rear (level on cylinder rib), and side-to-side (level on upper ac-
cess panel top surface). Shim under corners to level and stabilize
unit. Tumble dryer must not rock.

Mounting

Where local code requires the unit to be securely mounted, use
the shipping bolt frame holes found on the tumble dryer frame.
Use either epoxy 3/8 in. [10 mm] bolts or equivalent 3/8 in. [10
mm] concrete anchors, such as expandable bolts.
Fire Suppression System (Optional
Equipment)
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Electrical shock can
result in death or serious injury. If the water dispens-
ing system is activated, do not attempt to operate
the tumble dryer. If the water dispensing system is
activated, have the tumble dryer inspected by a
qualified agency before operating the tumble dryer.
IMPORTANT: Main supplies of electricity and water to
the tumble dryer should remain on at all times for the
fire suppression system to work.

WARNING

Check Local Codes and Permits

Call your local water company or the proper municipal authority
for information regarding local codes.
IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to have ALL
plumbing connections made by a qualified professio-
nal to assure that the plumbing is adequate and con-
forms to local, state, and federal regulations or codes.
IMPORTANT: It is the installation or owner's responsi-
bility to confirm that the necessary or required water,
water pressure, pipe size, or connections are provided.
Manufacturer assumes no responsibility if the fire sup-
pression system is not connected, installed, or main-
tained properly.

Water Requirements

IMPORTANT: Water must be supplied to the fire sup-
pression system, or the fire suppression system will
not operate as intended.
To ensure the fire suppression system operates properly:
Water supply requirements: 3/4 inch hose connections provid-
ing 15 gpm [57 lpm] minimum flow; Water pressure 20 psi
[138 kPa] minimum, 120 psi [827 kPa] maximum; water tem-
perature 40°F [4.5°C] minimum, 120°F [49°C] maximum
must be maintained at all times.
Electric power to the tumble dryer must be provided at all
times.
Perform preventative maintenance checks every month. Refer
to Operation/Maintenance Manual.
NOTE: Water pressure under 20 psi [138 kPa] will
cause low flow at water solenoid valve.
If the rear of the tumble dryer or the water supply is located in an
area where it will be exposed to cold/freezing temperatures, pro-
visions must be made to protect these water lines from freezing.
IMPORTANT: Temperature of the water supply must be
kept between 40°F and 120°F [4.5°C and 49°C]. If water
in the supply line or water solenoid valve freezes, the
fire suppression system will not operate.
IMPORTANT: If temperature sensors inside the tumble
dryer register a temperature below 40F° [4.5°C], the fire
suppression system control will lock out. This feature
protects against operation of the tumble dryer with a
possible frozen water supply. Only when the tempera-
ture sensors register a temperature 40F° [4.5°C] or
above will the machine reset for operation.
For installations where the tumble dryer must operate below 40°F
[4.5°C], a cold weather fire suppression system relocation kit
W879R1
(part no. 44340301) is available. Refer to the instructions provid-
ed in the kit for proper installation.
