H. PREPARATION FOR OPERATION
The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer:
1. Read ALL "CAUTION," "WARNING," and "DIRECTION" labels attached to the dryer.
2. Check incoming supply voltage to be sure that it is the same as indicated on the dryer data label that is
located in the gas train area (right inside wall near sail switch) behind the middle control (access) door.
3. GAS MODELS - check to assure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer
data label.
4. GAS MODELS - the sail switch damper assembly was installed and adjusted at the factory prior to
shipping. However, each sail switch adjustment must be checked to assure that this important safety
control is functioning.
5. Check bolts, nuts, screws, terminals, and fittings for tightness.
6. GAS MODELS - be sure that ALL gas shutoff valves are in the open position.
7. Be sure ALL back guard panels and service box covers have been replaced.
8. Check the lint door to assure that it is closed and secured in place.
9. Rotate the basket (tumbler) by hand to be sure they move freely.
10. For more effective automatic door closure and better tumbling action (and improved efficiency), the dryer
should be tilted slightly to the rear.
I. PREOPERATIONAL TESTS
ALL dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving the factory. However, a preoperational test
should be performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible that adjustments have changed in transit.
1. Turn on electric power to the dryer.
a. Open ALL gas shutoff valves
2. Dual Microprocessor Controller (DMC) Computer System Operational Test
a. Coin Models Only
1) The light emitting diode (L.E.D.) display(s) will flash back and forth between "FILL" and the
amount needed to start the dryer (i.e., "25"), meaning that the dryer is available and 25¢ is required
to start it.
2) Insert the proper number of coins into coin acceptor. Once the correct amount needed to start the
dryer has been inserted, the L.E.D. display(s) will read "PUSH" ... "tEnP."
