Special
provisions
for mobile
home installations
The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible
portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate
beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.

Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows
and turns.

When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room
as possible.

[]
Use the following Vent system chart to determine the type
of vent material and hood combinations
acceptable to use.
[]
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified
in the Vent system chart. Exhaust systems longer than those
specified will:
[]
Shorten the life of the dryer.
[]
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times
and increased energy usage.
The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will
help to achieve the best drying performance.
Vent system

NOTE: Side and bottom exhaust installations have a 90 ° turn
inside the dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one
90° turn to the chart.

Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior
wall opening around exhaust hood.
Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust
hood. Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4" (10.2 cm) clamp.
Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible.
See "Determine vent path" in "Plan Vent System." Avoid 90°
turns. Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape,
screws, or other fastening devices that extend into the interior
of the vent to secure vent.
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. To protect the floor, use a large, flat piece of cardboard from
the dryer carton. Place cardboard under the entire back side
of the dryer.
2. Firmly grasp the body of the dryer (not the top or console
panel). Gently lay the dryer on the cardboard. See illustration.

Examine the leveling legs. Find the diamond marking.
Screw the legs into the leg holes by hand. Use a wrench to
finish turning the legs until the diamond marking is no longer
visible.
Place a carton corner post from dryer packaging under each
of the 2 dryer back corners. Stand the dryer up. Slide the
dryer on the corner posts until it is close to its final location.
Leave enough room to connect the exhaust vent.
