SECTION I

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.

WARNING: KEEP DR YER 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 .

DAILY(beginning of each work shift)

Clean lint from baskets (tumblers).

Inspect lint screen(s) and drawer(s) for damage and replace if torn.

WEEKLY

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

90 DAYS

Remove lint from air vents and surrounding area.

IMPORTANT: Lint accumulation will restrict the airflow over the motor(s), causing overheating and

irreparable motor damage. Motor failure due to lint accumulation will VOID THE WARRANTY.

Remove lint accumulation from around the openings in the dryer’s back panels.

Remove lint from gas valve burner train area with a dusting brush or vacuum cleaner attachment.

Remove any lint accumulation from coin acceptor area, including the optical switch.

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

W ARNING: THE ACCUMULA TION OF LINT IN THE EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN

CREA TE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

Clean the steam coil fins (or filters). We suggest using compressed air and a vacuum cleaner with brush attachment.

NOTE: When cleaning steam coil fins, be careful not to bend the fins. If fins are bent, straighten by

using a fin comb, which is available from local air conditioning supply houses.

6 MONTHS

In the cleaning of the dryer’s cabinet, avoid using harsh abrasives. A product for the cleaning of appliances is recommended.

ALL bearings and setscrews should be checked to insure that they are tight.

B. ADJUSTMENTS

7 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION AND EVERY 6 MONTHS THEREAFTER

Inspect bolts, nuts, screws (bearing setscrews), grounding connections, nonpermanent gas connections, (unions, shutoff valves, and orifices) and electrical terminations. The 12-Rib 95” (J) poly belt arrangement should be examined. A cracked or seriously frayed belt(s) should be replaced. T ighten loose belt(s) when necessary and check the alignment. Complete operational check of controls and valves. Complete operational check of safety devices (door switches, lint compartment switches, sail switches, and burner and hi-limit thermostats).

ALL

C. LUBRICATION

The motor bearings, idler bearings, and basket (tumbler) bearings are permanently lubricated. No lubrication is necessary.
