Reversing The Door Swing; Important Notes; Before You Start - GE Dryers Owner's Manual

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING

IMPORTANT NOTES

• Read the instructions all the way through
before starting.
• Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching
paint.
• Set screws down by their related parts to
avoid using them in the wrong places.
• Provide a non-scratching work surface for
the doors.
• Normal completion time to reverse the door
swing is 30–60 minutes.
IMPORTANT: Once you begin, do not move
the cabinet until door-swing reversal is
completed.
These instructions are for changing the
hinges from the right side to the left side—
if you ever want to switch them back to the
right side, follow these same instructions and
reverse all references to the left and right.
