eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
11. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics
or articles containing foam rubber or similarly
textured rubberlike materials.
12. ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A
layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency
and prolongs drying time.
13. Keep area around the exhaust opening and
adjacent surrounding area free from the
accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.
14. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct
should be cleaned periodically by qualified
service personnel.
15. If not installed, operated and maintained in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
or if there is damage to or mishandling of this
product’s components, use of this product could
expose you to substances in the fuel or from fuel
combustion which can cause death or serious
illness and which are known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
16. Dryer will not operate with the loading door
open. DO NOT bypass the door safety switch by
permitting the dryer to operate with the door
open. The dryer will stop tumbling when the door
is opened. Do not use the dryer if it does not stop
tumbling when the door is opened or starts
tumbling without pressing the START
mechanism. Remove the dryer from use and call
the service person.
17. Do not put articles soiled with vegetable or
cooking oil in the dryer, as these oils may not be
removed during washing. Due to the remaining
oil, the fabric may catch on fire by itself.
18. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT put clothes
which have traces of any flammable substances
such as machine oil, flammable chemicals,
thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or
chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or
anything dry-cleaned at home with a drycleaning solvent in the dryer.
23. Remove laundry immediately after the dryer
stops.
24. Always read and follow manufacturer’s
instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning
aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. To reduce
the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep
them out of reach of children at all times
(preferably in a locked cabinet).
25. Do not tumble fiberglass curtains and draperies
unless the label says it can be done. If they are
dried, wipe out the cylinder with a damp cloth to
remove particles of fiberglass.
26. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
27. Never operate the dryer with any guards and/or
panels removed.
28. DO NOT operate the dryer with missing or
broken parts.
29. DO NOT bypass any safety devices.
30. DO NOT operate dryers if the units have been
separated.
31. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this
machine according to the manufacturer’s
instructions may result in conditions which can
produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
IMPORTANT: Solvent vapors from dry-cleaning
machines create acids when drawn through the
heater of the drying unit. These acids are corrosive
to the dryer as well as to the laundry load being
dried. Be sure make-up air is free of solvent vapors.
IMPORTANT: Have your dryer installed properly.
Don’t do it yourself unless you know how!
19. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose,
drying clothes.
20. Always disconnect the electrical power to the

•DO NOT modify the plug provided with the
dryer unit – if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
•If the laundry room’s electrical supply does not
meet the above specifications and/or if you are
not sure the laundry room has an effective
ground, have a qualified electrician or your local
electrical utility company check it and correct
any problems.
Step 7: Recheck Steps 1-6
Refer to Installer Checklist on the back cover of this
manual and make sure that dryer is installed correctly.
Step 8: Check Heat Source
Electric Dryers
Close the loading door and start the dryer in a heat
setting (refer to the Operation section). After the dryer
has operated for three minutes, the exhaust air or
exhaust pipe should be warm.
Gas Dryers
IMPORTANT: This operation is to be conducted
by qualified personnel only.
To view the burner flame, remove the lower front
panel of the dryer.
Close the loading door, start the dryer in a heat setting
(refer to the Operation section). The dryer will start,
the igniter will glow red and the main burner will
ignite.
IMPORTANT: If all air is not purged out of gas
line, gas igniter may go off before gas is ignited. If
this happens, after approximately two minutes
igniter will again attempt gas ignition.
IMPORTANT: If igniter does not light, make sure
gas is turned on.
After either dryer has operated for approximately five
minutes, observe burner flame through lower front
panel. Adjust the air shutter to obtain a soft, uniform
blue flame. (A lazy, yellow-tipped flame indicates lack
of air. A harsh, roaring, very blue flame indicates too
much air.) Adjust the air shutter as follows:

When power is applied to the dryer, the control will
enter the Ready Mode. If the control was powered
down during a running a cycle, the IN USE LED will
flash once and the control will enter Start Mode. If the
dry time dipswitch settings have not been changed
from factory default, the IN USE LED will flash once.
Ready Mode
In Ready Mode, the control waits for the vend to be
satisfied before entering Start Mode.
Start Mode
In Start Mode, the vend has been satisfied, but the
Start button has not been pressed. The IN USE LED
will be lit. The timer will not count down until the
Start button is pressed.
Run Mode
In Run Mode, the control is running a cycle. The
IN USE LED is lit.
Door Open Mode
In Door Open Mode, the control turns off the heater
and motor when the door is opened during a run cycle.
The timer will continue to count down time and the
IN USE LED is lit.
End of Cycle Mode
In End of Cycle Mode, a cycle is complete and the
IN USE LED is off. The control remains in this mode
until the door is opened or additional vend has been
satisfied.
Topoffs
Any time the control receives a coin slide pulse during
a cycle it will add the programmed dry time to the time
currently remaining in the cycle. The IN USE LED
will flash briefly to indicate the coin input. The
maximum cycle time is 99 minutes. The control will
not add time beyond 99 minutes. The cool down time
will not change. If the control receives a coin slide
pulse during cool down it will exit cool down and start
heating with the cycle time equal to the programmed
time.
Temperature Selector Switch
For five minutes after the control is powered up, there
is a diagnostic feature that allows the temperature
selector switches to be tested. When the temperature
selector is changed, the new setting is displayed by
flashing the IN USE LED as follows:
The control enters Error Display Mode to display
thermistor errors. The heater is turned off, the IN USE
LED flashes to indicate the error (refer to paragraphs
below), and the timer will continue to count down
time. The control remains in Error Display Mode until
the control senses the thermistor has returned to an
acceptable heating range, the cycle ends or machine is
powered down.
Open Thermistor
If the control senses a temperature less than 0
the heat has been on for at least three minutes it will
set an open thermistor error. The control will flash the
IN USE LED twice separated by a one and a half
second pause. This sequence is repeated as long as the
Open Thermistor error is sensed.
Shorted Thermistor
If the control senses a temperature greater than 210 ±
°F during an active cycle it will set a Shorted
4
Thermistor error. The control will flash the IN USE
LED three times separated by a one and a half second
pause. This sequence is repeated as long as the Shorted
Thermistor error is sensed.

The seventh switch is used to program the amount of
additional cool down time. The additional cool down
time is added to the factory default minimum cool
down time of 3 minutes. A value of 3 additional
minutes is available.
The eighth switch is used for the cycle reset. If the
switch is OFF (default), the control will save the time
left on a cycle in case of a power failure. If the switch
is ON, the control will clear the cycle and return to
Ready Mode if there is a power failure.
All Models
The control is shipped from the factory programmed
with 1 minute of minimum heat time, preset with 41
additional minutes of drying time (dipswitches 1, 4
and 6 in ON position) and 3 minutes of minimum cool
down time for a total time of 45 minutes for a coin
pulse. Refer to Table 6 for dipswitch settings.
The control reads the dipswitch settings at power-up.
The control must be powered down to change the
dipswitch settings.
To change the heat or cool down time for a coin pulse,
the desired dry time dipswitches must be set to ON
position. All other dipswitches must be in OFF
position.
To change the dry time on the dryer, combinations of
dipswitches can be set on the control. Refer to
Figure 25.
There are eight dipswitches on the dryer control. The
first six switches are used to program the amount of
additional heat time given for each coin pulse. The
additional drying time is added to the factory default
minimum heat time of one minute. A value of 1 to 63
minutes of additional drying time is available for each
coin slide pulse.
Models Through Serial No. 0908
The last two switches are used to program the amount
of additional cool down time. The additional cool
