IMPORTANT INFORMA TION

A. RECEIVING AND HANDLING

The dryer is shipped in a protective stretch wrap cover with protective cardboard corners and top cover (or optional box) as a means of preventing damage in transit. Upon delivery, the dryer and/or packaging, and wooden skid should be visually inspected for shipping damage. If any damage whatsoever is noticed, inspect further before delivering carrier leaves.

Dryers damaged in shipment:

ALL dryers should be inspected upon receipt and before they are signed for.

2. If there is suspected damage or actual damage, the trucker ’s receipt should be so noted.

3. If the dryer is damaged beyond repair, it should be refused. Those dryers which were not damaged in a damaged shipment should be accepted, but the number received and the number refused must be noted on the receipt.

4. If you determine that the dryer was damaged after the trucker has left your location, you should call the delivering carrier’s freight terminal immediately and file a claim. The freight company considers this concealed damage. This type of freight claim is very difficult to get paid and becomes extremely difficult when more than a day or two passes after the freight was delivered. It is your responsibility to file freight claims. Dryer/parts damaged in transit cannot be claimed under warranty.

5. Freight claims are the responsibility of the consignee, and ALL claims must be filed at the receiving end. ADC assumes no responsibility for freight claims or damages.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

Installation should be performed by competent technicians in accordance with local and state codes. In the absence of these codes, the installation must conform to applicable American National S tandards: ANSI Z223.1LATEST EDITION (National Fuel Gas Code) or ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION (National Electrical Code) or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.] Gas) or LATEST EDITION (for General Installation and Gas Plumbing) or Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION (for Electrical Connections).

A. UNPACKING/SETTING UP

Remove protective shipping material (i.e., plastic wrap, and/or optional shipping box) from dryer.

NOTE: The access keys for the service doors are included in the information packet shipped in the

basket (tumbler). These keys should be removed and put in a safe place, yet made accessible because some will be needed throughout various phases in the installation of the dryer .

Dryers are shipped with a coin box and coin box faceplate ONLY. The coin box lock is not included and must be purchased elsewhere or the lock can be ordered as a parts order from the ADC factory.

IMPORTANT: For shipping purposes, the 10-inch (25.40 cm) exhaust adapter is shipped inside one

(1) of the dryer’s baskets (tumblers). This exhaust adapter should either be left inside the basket (tumbler) or removed and put in a safe place, and must be installed once the dryer is in place prior to making any exhaust duct connections.

The dryer can be moved to its final location while still attached to the skid or with the skid removed. With the skid removed, to make it easier to slide the dryer into its final position, slightly lower ALL four (4) leveling legs, so that the dryer will slide on the legs instead of the base frame. The dryer is equipped with four (4) leveling legs, one (1) at each corner of the dryer base. The legs can be adjusted by either tilting...and properly supporting the dryer, and adjusting from underneath with an open end wrench (or adjustable wrench). Or , by removing the rear lower back panel and/or front lower service panel and adjusting the leveling leg with a 1/4” socket.

IMPORTANT: When tilting the dryer to adjust the leveling legs, be sure to properly support the

bottom of the dryer with a block of wood or similar object. Failure to do so can cause personal injury!

Page 13

B. LOCATION OF THE DRYER

Before installing the dryer, be sure the location conforms to local codes and ordinances. In the absence of such codes or ordinances the location must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI.Z223.1 LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P .] Gas) or LATEST EDITION (for General Installation and Gas Plumbing).

1. The dryer must be installed on a sound level floor capable of supporting its weight. Carpeting must be

removed from the floor area that the dryer is to rest on.

IMPORTANT: “The dryer must be installed on noncombustible floors only .”

2. Even though a 12-inch (30.48 cm) clearance is acceptable, it is recommended that the rear of the dryer be

positioned approximately 2 feet (0.61 meters) away from the nearest obstruction, i.e., wall, for ease of installation, maintenance, and service.

3. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.

4. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply.

CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6

months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint build up.

IMPORTANT: Dryer must be installed in a location/environment, which the ambient

temperature remains between 40º F (4.44º C) and 130º F (54.44º C).

C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

Bulkheads and partitions should be made of noncombustible materials and must be located a minimum of 24-inches (60.96 cm) above the dryer outer top, except along the front of the dryer which may be closed in if desired.

Page 14

D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to assure proper performance of each dryer . An unrestricted source of 1,040 cfm (29.44 cmm) is necessary for each dryer (total for both baskets [tumblers]). An unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/2 square feet (0.14 square meters) is required for each dryer. This area must be enlarged if louvers or registers cover the opening. It is not necessary to have a separate make-up air opening for each dryer. Common make-up air openings are acceptable. However, they must be set up in such a manner that the make-up air is distributed equally to the dryers. For example, for a bank of eight (8) dryers, a total make-up air opening of 12 square feet (1.15 square meters) is required. Two (2) openings measuring 2 feet by 3 feet (0.61 meters by 0.91 meters) (6 square feet [0.58 square meters]) are acceptable. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply.

Allowances must be made for remote or constricting passageways or where dryers are located at excessive altitudes or predominantly low-pressure areas.

IMPORTANT: Make-up air must be provided from a source free of dry cleaning solvent fumes.

Make-up air that is contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components.

IMPORTANT: Make-up air openings should not be located near ductwork exhaust outlets. If

make-up air openings are too close to the exhaust outlet, lint and fumes may be drawn back into the dryer area through these openings.

NOTE: Component failure due to dry cleaning fumes will VOID THE WARRANTY.

Page 15

E. EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS

Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure which will result in slow drying, increased use of energy, overheating of the dryer, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switches, burner hi-limits, or basket (tumbler) hi-limit thermostats. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.

CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors.

When possible, it is suggested to provide a separate exhaust duct for each dryer.

CAUTION: IMPROPERL Y SIZED OR INST ALLED EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN

CREA TE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

The exhaust ductwork must be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible. The shape of the ductwork is not critical so long as the minimum cross-sectional area is provided.

When single dryer venting is used, for horizontal or vertical venting the minimum duct size is 10-inches (25.40 cm) in diameter and the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet must not exceed a distance of 35 feet (10.67 meters) and have no more than two (2) elbows (including both connection to dryer and outside protection).

In the case of multiple (common) venting, using the applicable duct size (diameter) noted in this manual, for horizontal venting the distance from the last dryer to the outside outlet must not exceed 15 feet (4.57 meters) and have no more than one (1) elbow (including outside protection). In the case of common vertical venting, the distance from the last dryer to the outside outlet must not exceed 25 feet (7.62 meters) and have no more than three (3) elbows (including outside protection).

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at the dryer exhaust duct area must

be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column

(W.C.).

It is suggested that the use of 90º turns in ducting be avoided; use 30º or 45º angles instead. The ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will collect lint. When adding ducts, the duct to be added should overlap the duct to which it is to be connected. ALL ductwork joints must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from escaping into the building. Also, inspection doors should be installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork for periodic inspection and cleaning.

When the exhaust ductwork passes through a wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible materials, the opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this opening.

If the ductwork run (distance) or the amount of elbows required exceeds the limits noted in this manual, the size (diameter/cross-sectional area) of the ductwork must be increased in proportion to the length or number of elbows added. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional heating, venting, and air conditioning (HVAC) firm must be consulted for proper venting information.

1. Dryer exhaust connection. The dryer is shipped with a 10-inch (25.40 cm) exhaust adapter, which for

shipping purposes is shipped inside of the dryer’s basket (tumbler). This exhaust adapter must be installed (with screws provided) once the dryer is in place prior to making any exhaust connections.

Page 16

IMPORTANT: Minimum duct size for dryer is 10-inches (25.40 cm) round duct. Duct size must not

be reduced anywhere downstream of dryer .

IMPORTANT: It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans not be used in the exhaust ductwork

system.

NOTE: As per the National Fuel Gas Code, “Exhaust ducts for type 2 clothes dryers shall be

constructed of sheet metal or other noncombustible material. Such ducts shall be equivalent in strength and corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel not less than

0.0195-inches (26 gauge [0.05 mm]) thick.”

2. Venting Layout

a. Single Dryer V enting

When single dryer venting is used, for horizontal or vertical venting the minimum duct size is 10-inches (25.40 cm) in diameter and the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet must not exceed a distance and the number of elbows (including both connection to dryer and outside protection shown in the illustration below).

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at the dryer exhaust duct area must

be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column

(W.C.).

CAUTION: IMPROPERL Y SIZED OR INST ALLED EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN

CREA TE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

IMPORTANT: If the ductwork run (distance) or the amount of elbows required exceeds the limits

noted in this manual, the size (diameter/cross-sectional area) of the ductwork can only be increased to an extent. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional heating, venting, and air conditioning (HV AC) firm must be consulted for proper venting information.

b. Common V enting

If it is not feasible to provide separate exhaust ducts for each dryer , ducts from individual dryers may be channeled into a “common main duct.” The individual ducts should enter the bottom or the side of the main common duct at an angle not more than 45º in the direction of airflow . The main duct should be tapered, with the diameter increasing before each individual duct 10-inches (25.40 cm) is added.

IMPORTANT: No more than four (4) dryers or eight (8) pockets total should be connected to one

(1) common duct.

Minimum duct size between dryer and common duct is 10-inches (25.40 cm) in diameter. This duct must not travel more than 15 feet (4.57 meters) and include no more than three (3) elbows (which includes both dryer and common duct connections).

NOTE: Refer to illustrations on page 14 and page 15 for examples of multiple dryer (common)

venting.

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at the dryer exhaust duct area must

be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column

(W.C.).

Page 19

c. Outside Ductwork (Vent) Protection

T o protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90º elbow turned downward should be installed where the exhaust duct exits the building. If the ductwork travels vertically up through a roof, it should be protected from the weather by using a 180º turn (goose neck) to point the opening downward. In either case, allow at least twice the diameter of the duct between the duct opening and the nearest obstruction.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use screens, louvers, or caps on the outside opening of the exhaust

ductwork.

Dryers made for use with L.P. gas have the gas valve’ s internal pressure regulator blocked open so that the gas pressure must be regulated upstream of the dryer. The pressure measured at each gas valve pressure tap must be a consistent 10.5 inches (26.1 mb) water column. There is no regulator or regulation provided in an L.P. dryer . The water column pressure must be regulated at the source (L.P. tank) or an external regulator must be added to each dryer.

3. Piping Connections

ALL components/materials must conform to National Fuel Gas Code Specifications ANSI Z223.1-LA TEST EDITION, or in Canada, CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (L.P. Gas) or LATEST EDITION (for General Installation and Gas Plumbing), as well as local codes and ordinances and must be done by a qualified professional. It is important that gas pressure regulators meet applicable pressure requirements, and that gas meters be rated for the total amount of ALL the appliance Btus being supplied.

Page 25

The size of the main gas supply line (header) will vary depending on the distance this line travels from the gas meter (or in the case of liquid propane [L.P.] gas, the supply tank), the number of tees, other gas-operated appliances on the supply line, etc. Specific information regarding supply line size should be determined by the gas supplier.

NOTE: Undersized gas supply piping can create a low or inconsistent pressure which will result in

erratic operation of the burner ignition system.

Consistent gas pressure is essential at ALL gas connections. It is recommended that a 3/4” (19.05 mm) pipe loop be installed in the supply line servicing the bank of dryers. An in-line pressure regulator must be installed in the gas supply line (header) if (natural) gas line pressure exceeds 12.0 inches (29.9 mb) water column (W.C.) pressure. (Refer to the illustrations on page 22 for details.)

IMPORTANT: W ater column pressure of 3.5 inches (8.7 mb) for natural gas dryers and 10.5 inches

(26.1 mb) for L.P . gas is required at the gas valve pressure tap of each dryer for proper and safe operation.

A 1/8” N.P.T. plugged tap, accessible for a test gauge connection, must be installed in the main gas supply line immediately upstream of each dryer.

IMPORTANT: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of natural gas and L.P . gas must be used.

WARNING: Test ALL connections for leaks by brushing on a soapy water solution (liquid deter gent

also works well).

WARNING: NEVER TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A FLAME!!!

Page 26

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 affixed to the left side panel area behind the top control (access) door.

3. Check to assure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer data label.

4. 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.

Page 27

6. Be sure that

ALL gas shutoff valves are in the open position.

7. Be sure

8. Check the lint drawer to assure that it is closed and secured in place.

9. Rotate the basket (tumbler) by hand to be sure they move freely.

ALL back guard panels and service box covers have been replaced.

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. 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.”

3) Start the dryer by pressing the desired setting for either the upper basket (tumbler) or lower basket (tumbler) (i.e., “LO” selection for the upper basket [tumbler]). The L.E.D. display will now read selection (setting) made and the amount of time vended (i.e., “LO 10”).

NOTE: The dryer can be stopped at any time by opening the main door . T o restart the dryer, shut the

main door and press the desired setting.

4) Open main door to stop the dryer, and change selection to “PERM PRESS” (medium) setting. Repeat this procedure, but change the selection (setting) to “HI” (high). This will confirm that setting key circuits and door switch circuits are functioning properly .

NOTE: Selection (setting) changes can be made at any time during the drying cycle by opening and

closing the main door and then making a new selection.

5) Repeat above procedure for the other basket (tumbler).

3. Heat Circuit Operational Test

a. When a gas dryer is first started (during initial start-up), it has a tendency not to ignite on the first ignition

attempt. This is because the gas supply piping is filled with air , so it may take a few minutes for the air to be purged from the lines.

Page 28

The dryer is equipped with a Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) system, which has internal diagnostics. If ignition DSI system, open and close main door and restart dryer (press desired temperature selection).

is not established, the heat circuit DSI module will lockout until it is manually reset. To reset the

NOTE: During the purging period, check to be sure that ALL gas shutoff valves are open.

b. Once ignition is established, a gas pressure test should be taken at the gas valve pressure tap of each

dryer to assure that the water column (W.C.) pressure is correct and consistent.

NOTE: W ater column pressure requirements (measured at the gas valve pressure tap):

Natural Gas............................3.5 Inches (8.7 mb) W ater Column.

Liquid Propane (L.P .) Gas ......10.5 Inches (26.1 mb) W ater Column.

IMPORTANT: THERE IS NO REGULATOR PROVIDED IN AN L.P. DRYER. The water

column pressure must be regulated at the source (L.P . tank) or an external regulator must be added to each dryer .

4. Make a complete operational check of ALL safety related circuits (i.e., lint basket switches and sail

switches).

5. Each basket (tumbler) should be operated through one (1) complete cycle to assure that no further adjustments are necessary and that ALL components are functioning properly.

NOTE: The sail switch can be checked for proper operation by opening the control door while the

dryer is running and the heating unit (burner) active (on). The heating unit(s) should shut off within a few seconds. If not, make the necessary adjustments.

BASKET (TUMBLER) COA TING

The basket (tumbler) is treated with a protective coating. We suggest dampening old garments or cloth material with a solution of water and nonflammable mild detergent and tumbling them in the basket (tumbler) to remove this coating.

NOTE: When the drying and cooling cycles are complete, the light emitting diode (L.E.D.) display

reads...“donE.”

6. Computer Programs/Selections...

Each microprocessor controller (computer) has been preprogrammed by the factory with the most commonly

used program (parameter) selections. If microprocessor controller (computer) program changes are required, refer to the Microprocessor Controller Programming Manual, which was shipped with the dryer.

Page 29

J. SHUTDOWN INSTRUCTIONS

In the case where the dryer is to be shutdown (taken out of service) for a period of time, the following must be performed:

1. Discontinue power to the dryer (both baskets [tumblers]) either at the external disconnect switch or the circuit breaker.

2. Discontinue the gas supply:

SECTION VII

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

A. CLEANING

A program and/or schedule should be established for periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the ductwork system. The frequency of cleaning can best be determined from experience at each location. Maximum operating efficiency is dependent upon proper air circulation. The accumulation of lint can restrict this airflow . If the guidelines in this section are met, an ADC dryer will provide many years of efficient, trouble free, and most importantly safe operation.

WARNING: LINT FROM MOST FABRICS IS HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE. THE

ACCUMULA TION OF LINT CAN CREA TE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

W ARNING: KEEP DRYER AREA CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE

MA TERIALS, GASOLINE, AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS.

NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average usage, which is considered six (6) to eight (8)

operational (running) hours per day .

IMPORTANT: Dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6

months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint build up.

SUGGESTED CLEANING SCHEDULE

DAILY (beginning of each work shift)

Clean lint from lint drawer/screen.

Inspect lint screen and replace if torn.

WEEKLY

Clean lint accumulation from around microprocessor temperature sensor probes and sensor bracket assemblies.

W ARNING: TO AVOID THE HAZARD OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DISCONTINUE

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE DRYER.

90 DAYS

Inspect and remove lint accumulation in customer furnished exhaust ductwork system and from the dryer’s internal exhaust ducting.

Page 36

W ARNING: THE ACCUMULATION OF LINT IN THE EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN

CREA TE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

WARNING: DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

AIR.

W ARNING: INSPECT AND REMOVE ANY LINT ACCUMULA TION, WHICH CAN

CAUSE THE BACK DRAFT DAMPER TO BIND OR STICK.

NOTE: A back draft damper that is sticking partially closed can result in slow drying and shutdown of

the heat circuit safety switches and/or thermostats.

PROCEDURE FOR FUNCTIONAL CHECK

OF REPLACEMENT COMPONENTS

1. Microprocessor Controller (Computer) Board

a. Upon completing installation of the replacement microprocessor controller (computer) board, reestablish

power to the dryer.

b. Start the drying cycle.

c. Verify that the motor(s) and the heat indicator dots, in the microprocessor controller (computer) light

emitting diode (L.E.D.) display are on. (Refer to the illustration below.)

d. V erify that the motor(s), heat, and door indicator lights on the back side of the microprocessor controller

(computer) board are lit. (Refer to the illustration below.)

Page 40

2. For Models With Johnson Controls Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) Module (G760)

Theory Of Operation:

Start the drying cycle. When the gas burner ignites within the chosen trial for ignition time (6-seconds), the flame sensor detects gas burner flame and signals the DSI module to keep the gas valve open...as long as there is a call for heat. The DSI module will “LOCKOUT” if the gas burner flame of the trial for ignition period. The trial for ignition period will be repeated for a total of three (3) retries/ trials (the initial try and two [2] more retries/trials). If the flame is not sensed at the end of the third retry/ trial (inter-purge period of 30-seconds) the DSI module will “LOCKOUT” (light emitting diode [L.E.D.] flashes).

A steady L.E.D. indicator indicates normal operation.

No L.E.D. indicator indicates a power or an internal failure has occurred.
