Read And Save These Instructions

Read and understand manual before operating.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

WARNING! Unit must be grounded.

• Use indoors only.

• Do not operate in standing water.

• If motor or wiring gets wet, allow to dry completely

before using.

• Clean with compressed air or vacuum or wipe with a
damp cloth. Do not use hose or pressure washer.

• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use
this airmover with any solid-state speed control
device.

• Insert 3-prong plug on power cord only into outlet with
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupting device.

• Do not use adaptor.

• Never cut off third prong.

• Do not use an extension cord.

FIRE HAZARD

• Keep air intakes and grills clear of obstructions and
dirt. Reduced airflow can cause motor to overheat.
Keep away from draperies or other material that could
block air intakes.

• Keep away from open flames and heat sources.

• Do not use or store where flammable vapors such as

from gasoline, solvents or thinners may be present.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Unplug unit before opening housing for
cleaning or servicing.

• Always operate the unit on a stable, level surface.

• Turn off unit. Unplug unit before lifting or moving. The

powerful airflow can make the unit difficult to control.

• Inspect the power cord before use. If cord is
damaged, do not use. Replace with a cord of the
same type and amperage rating. Protect cord from
damage by turning off unit before unplugging. Always
grasp the plug (not pulling on the cord) to unplug.

• The unit is designed to operate on a 115V/60 Hz
electrical connection. Make sure that the electrical
outlet is grounded.

• Handle the unit carefully. Do not drop, throw, or place
on unstable surface where it could fall. Rough
treatment can damage the unit, and may create a
hazardous condition or void the warranty.

• Keep children away from unit. Be sure unit is
inaccessible to children when it is not attended.

water, frayed cord, etc.) that might cause an electrical surge.
Relocate the unit and plug into a different outlet. Then push the
“Reset” button and check to make sure it is operating. If so,
continue use; if not, call Dri-Eaz Service at

CIRCUIT BREAKER SWITCH
The circuit breaker protects the machine by turning it off when
more than 12 amps are run through the on-unit circuit.

OPERATING YOUR JET CXV

PLACEMENT
For optimal wall and floor drying, place at least one Jet CXV

TurboDryer per room against walls (with the hinge side
touching the wall), with multiple units spaced 10-14 feet apart
and facing the same direction. Place as many as needed for
maximum airflow across all wet areas of the floor.

Ensure that all wet surfaces receive good airflow. Open interior
doors to maintain good air circulation. Doors may need to be
braced to prevent them from blowing shut.

OPERATING POSITION
The Jet CXV TurboDryer is specifically designed with two

operating positions. Operate face-down or upright (at an angle
of 12°) to direct airflow as needed for most effective drying.

• Upright (tilted forward 12°) - Set upright resting on two
feet (handle on top). Unit was designed to tilt forward
at a 12° angle on its lower legs to create maximum
laminar airflow along the floor in front of the unit.

• Face down - Set on all three legs with the front grill
facing down. This position directs air down at the floor
for focused spot drying.

G

ETTING STARTED

1. Place the unit in the desired operating position with the
three legs pointing in the direction of the airflow.

2. Plug power cord into a standard 115v grounded outlet.

3. Set the switch at the desired speed based on the needed
balance of amp draw and airflow (i.e., higher speed for
more airflow and higher amp draw; use lower speed if
limited circuit amperage is available and/or lower volume
airflow is required).

4. Check for proper operation before leaving the unit
unattended. Do not move or carry the Jet CXV TurboDryer

CONTROLS

THE AUXILIARY OUTLET
You can “daisy chain” or interconnect up to three Jet CXV
TurboDryer units by plugging the power cord from one unit into
the auxiliary outlet of another. The unit can conduct a
maximum of 12 amps when it is turned off or 9 amps when it is
turned on.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
The GFCI protects the user. Should it detect a sudden “ground
fault,” the GFCI will interrupt the electric current. The GFCI will
also trip when a short circuit or overload occurs. If the GFCI

when it is running.

RANSPORTING AND STORING

T

1. Stack face down for storage and transport on the
Unimover hand truck. Jet CXV TurboDryers will nest on
top of each other for easy stacking.

2. When transporting in a vehicle, secure the Jet CXV
TurboDryer and strap it into place to prevent sliding and
possible injury to the unit and vehicle occupants.
NOTICE! Store securely to avoid any damaging impact to
the motor, blades, and other internal parts.

When placing the components back into the unit after cleaning,
the motor must be placed back into the unit so that all the text

NOTICE! If the motor is put back in upside down all the
lettering will be upside down and the user won’t be able to use
the cord wrap.

CLEAN GRILLS:
buildup of lint and dust will reduce the airflow and may cause
the motor to overheat and become a fire hazard. If dirty, wipe
down the blades with a damp cloth. Clean off any accumulated
lint or other materials from the protective grill cover. Use a
vacuum or a damp cloth to remove lint and dust from motor
and grill covers. WARNING! Do not allow water into the motor.

INSPECT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: Inspect the electrical cord
for damage at regular intervals. Periodically, remove the
housing and inspect internal wiring for bare wires, insecure
fasteners, and discoloration. Remove and repair any damaged
wiring as needed. Failure to do so may lead to electrical shock
or a fire hazard. WARNING! Damaged wiring can cause
electric shock or fire hazard.
