IMPORTANT INFORMATION

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 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. Manufacturer assumes no responsibility for freight claims or damages.

IMPORTANT: The dryer must be transported and handled in an upright position at ALL times.

Piping Connections

ALL components/materials must conform to National Fuel Gas Code Specifications ANSI Z223.1-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, 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), 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.

The dryer is provided with a 3/8-inch N.P.T. inlet pipe connection located at the right side of the base of the dryer. The minimum pipe size (supply line) to the dryer is 3/8-inch N.P.T. For ease in servicing, the gas supply line of each dryer must have its own shutoff valve.

IMPORTANT: The gas supply line to each dryer must be a minimum of 3/8-inch (9.5 mm). DO

NOT REDUCE THIS PIPE SIZE REQUIREMENT.

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 L.P. gas, the supply tank, other gas-operated appliances on the same 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 pipe gas loop be installed in the supply line servicing a bank of dryers. An in-line pressure regulator must be installed in the gas supply line (header) if the (natural) gas pressure exceeds 12.0 inches (29.9 mb) of water column (W.C.) pressure. Refer to the illustrations on the previous page.

ALL gas connections. It is recommended that a 1/2-inch (12.7 mm)

NOTE: A water column test pressure of 3.5 inches (8.7 mb) for natural gas and 10.5 inches (26.1 mb)

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

A 1/8-inch 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.

IMPORTANT: Test ALL connections for leaks by brushing on a soapy water solution (liquid

detergent works well).

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

ALL components/materials must conform to National Fuel Gas Code Specifications ANSI Z223.1-LATEST

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.

IMPORTANT: The dryer and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply

piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

NOTE: The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual

shutoff valve during any pressure test of the gas supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

factory prior to shipping. However, each sail switch adjustment must be checked to assure that this important safety control is functioning.

IMPORTANT: If during installation the lint door safety chain was disconnected, it must be

reconnected or personal injury may result.

9. Rotate the basket (tumbler/drum) by hand to be sure it moves freely.

10. Check terminals and fittings for security.

Page 29

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 or

due to marginal location (installation) conditions.

1. Turn on electric power to the dryer.

2. Refer to the Operating Instructions for starting your particular model dryer.

3. GAS MODELS ONLY

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.

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

NOTE: Gas model dryers are equipped with a Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) system, which has internal

diagnostics. If ignition is not established after the first attempt, the heat circuit in the DSI module will lockout until it is manually reset. To reset the DSI system, open and close the main door and restart the dryer.

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:

a. Door Switch(es)

b. Hi-Limit Thermostats

c. Cycling Thermostat

d. GAS AND ELECTRIC MODELS ONLY - Sail Switch

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

circuit (gas burner/electric oven) is active (on). The heating unit should shut off within a few seconds. If not, make necessary adjustments to the sail switch.

5. Make a complete operational check of ALL operating controls.

NOTE: If computer program changes are required, refer to the computer programming section of the

manual supplied with the dryer.

6. The dryer should be operated through one (1) complete cycle to assure that ALL components are functioning properly.

SECTION VI

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

ACCUMULATION OF LINT CAN CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

WARNING: KEEP DRYER AREA CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE

MATERIALS, 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

EVERY THIRD OR FOURTH LOAD

Clean the lint drawer every third or fourth load. A clogged lint drawer will cause poor dryer performance. The lint drawer is located on the lower front of the dryer. Inspect lint screen and replace if torn.

NOTE: The frequency of cleaning the lint drawer can best be determined from experience at each

location.

WEEKLY

Clean lint accumulation from lint chamber, thermostat, and microprocessor temperature sensor (sensor bracket) area.

WARNING: TO AVOID THE HAZARD OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DISCONTINUE

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE DRYER.

Page 34

90 DAYS

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

WARNING: THE ACCUMULATION OF LINT IN THE EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN
