Warning
!
Fire or explosion could result due to failure of
isolating or disconnecting the gas supply as noted.
Note
!
Undersized gas piping will result in ignition
problems, slow drying, increased use of energy,
and can create a safety hazard.
The dryer must be connected to the type of heat/gas indicated
on the data label and pressure must be confirmed. If this
information does not agree with the type of gas available, do
not operate the dryer. Contact the distributor who sold the
dryer or contact the manufacturer.
The input ratings shown on the data label are for elevations
up to 2,000 feet (610 meters), unless elevation requirements
of over 2,000 feet (610 meters) were specified at the time the
dryer order was placed with the factory. The adjustment or
conversion of dryers in the field for elevations over 2,000 feet
(610 meters) is made by changing each burner orifice. If this
conversion is necessary, contact the distributor who sold the
dryer or contact the manufacturer.
