INSTALLING LEVELING LEGS, COIN SLIDE, AND COIN BOX

The console houses the factory-installed accumulator timer
with actuating arm and button.
The factory-installed timer is set to provide 45 minutes (4 pins)
of drying time when activated by the coin slide. Timer cams
for 30-minute (6 pins) and 60-minute (3 pins) drying times are
included in the parts bag.
The coin slide mechanism, control panel lock and key, and coin
box lock and key are not included and are available from the
usual industry sources.
1. Prepare dryer for leveling legs
NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving
to avoid damaging floor covering.
Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation
location.
Take tape off front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove
the literature and parts packages. Wipe drum interior with a
damp cloth to remove any dust.
Take two cardboard corners from the dryer carton and place
them on the floor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp the body
of the dryer and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard
corners.
2. Screw in leveling legs
Examine leveling legs and find diamond
marking. Screw legs into leg holes by
hand. Use an adjustable wrench or
25 mm (1") hex-head socket wrench
to finish turning legs until diamond
marking is no longer visible.
To avoid damage to the floor, use a large piece of cardboard
from the dryer carton. Stand dryer up on the cardboard.
Slide the dryer until it is close to its final location. Leave
enough room for electrical connection and to connect
the exhaust vent.
3. Install coin slide and coin box
Remove the service door of the meter case by lifting it up
at the back. Install the money-accepting device. (Refer to
manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.)
For dryers using coin slides, use the adapter kit supplied with
the dryer.
Replace the meter case service door. Put the coin vault with
lock and key in the meter case opening.
Remove cardboard or hardboard from under dryer. Adjust the
legs of the dryer up or down until the dryer is level.
4. Install added security device
Check that power is not supplied to the dryer.
Open and remove the service door.
Insert the narrow part of the security cone into the oblong
hole in the bottom rear of the meter case assembly.
Pass the security bolt through this cone and thread it by hand
into the cage nut below the oblong hole.
Tighten the security bolt by hand a few turns before using a
wrench to tighten until snug.
NOTE: Installing the security bolt provides added security, but
will add to the service time when the top needs to be removed
for servicing the dryer.
