DRYERVENTING REQUIREMENTS
if an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used
The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow
directed downward.
24" rain.
(610 rnm)
_Minimum clearance above any
accumulation of snow, ice, or
debris such as leaves
If main vent travels vertically through the roof_ rather than
through wall, install a 180 ° sweep elbow on end of vent at least
2 ft. (610 ram) above surface of roof.
The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1/2" (13 ram)
larger than vent dJameten Vent should be centered in opening.
Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.
i
Multiple Dryer Venting
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main
vent should be sized to remove 5663 I/min. (200 CFM)
of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design
may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.
The room where the dryers are located should have make=up air
equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.
Back-draft Damper Kit is available from your distributor and
should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted
air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance
within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the
direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side
should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering
with the other vents.
The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should
be no more than 30 °.
Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create
acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can
damage dryers and items being dried.
A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent
for periodic cleaning of the vent system.
Make Gas Connection
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. Remove red cap from gas pipe on back of dryer.
2. Connect gas supply to dryer. Use a pipe thread compound
approved for the type of gas supplied. If flexible metal
tubing is used, be certain there are no kinks.
If necessary for service, open the front lower service panel
by using a t/4" nutdriver to remove the 2 hex-head screws
from the bottom of the panel. Then lift up on the panel while
pulling the bottom of the panel away from the dryer.
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
3. Open the shut=off valve in the gas supply line and make sure
the dryer has its own gas supply opened.
4. Test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive

GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
Type of Gas
This dryer is equipped for use with natural gas. It is design-
certified by CSA International for LP (propane and butane)
gases with appropriate conversion. No attempt shall be made to
convert dryer from gas specified on serial/rating plate for use
with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier.
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.
Gas conversion kit part numbers are listed on gas valve
burner base.
Gas Supply Line
Recommended Method
Provide a gas supply line of 1/2" (13 ram) rigid tiPS) pipe to
dryer location. Pipe joint compounds that resist action of LP gas
must be used. Do not use TEFLON®t tape. With LP gas, piping
or tubing size can be 1/2" (13 mm) minimum. Usually, LP gas
suppliers determine size and materials used in the system.

E. Gas shutoff valve.
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
A _" NPT minimum plugged tapping, accessible for gauge
testing, must be installed immediately downstream of the
installed shut-off valve to the dryer (as shown above). The dryer
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of
1/2" psig (352 kg/m2).
Alternate Method
The gas supply may also be connected using %" (10 ram)
approved copper or aluminum tubing. If the total length of
the supply line is more than 20 ft. (6.1 m), larger tubing will
be required.
If using natural gas, do not use copper tubing. Pipe joint
compounds that resist action of type of gas supplied must
be used.
Shut=off valve required
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shut=off
valve installed within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of dryer in accordance
with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. This valve should
be located in same room as dryer. It should be in a location
that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to
shut-off valve. In Canada, an individual manual shut-off valve
must be installed in accordance with the B149 installation codes
CAN/CGA B149.1 and CAN/CGA B149.2.
NOTE: Do not kink or damage the flexible stainless steel gas line
when moving the dryer.
Rigid Pipe Connection
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe fittings
to obtain an in-line connection to the dryer.

General User information
SCROLLING "OUT OF ORDER" MESSAGE, FOLLOWED BY
A FAILURE OR DiAGNOSTiC CODE, SHOWING iN DISPLAY -
This condition indicates the dryer is inoperative.
"0 MINUTES" SHOWING IN DISPLAY - This indicates the
dryer cannot be operated. Coins dropped or debit inputs during
this condition will be stored in escrow but cannot be used until
normal operation is restored by opening and closing the door. If
a door switch has failed, causing "0 MINUTES" to remain in the
display after the door is opened and closed, it must be replaced
before normal operation can be restored.
COLD START (Initial first use) - Dryer is programmed at the
factory as follows: $1.50 dry price (30 minutes).
WARM START (after power failure) - A few seconds after
power is restored, if a cycle was in progress at the time of
the power failure, "RESELECT CYCLE" will flash in the dispiay,
indicating the need for a fabric setting button to be pressed
to restart dryer.
PRiCiNG - After the door is opened and then closed
following the completion of a cycle, the display indicates the
cycle price (unless set for free operation, where the display will
flash "Select Cycle"). As coins are dropped or debit inputs arrive,
the display will change to lead the user through the initiation of
a cycle.
There are four (4) types of dryer pricing:
Fixed "Vend" Pricing
A dryer setup for "Fixed Cycle" operation can only accept
additional time accumulated by increments equal to the length
of a complete dry cycle. A maximum of 99 minutes may be
purchased; no additional credit is given for coins dropped
with 99 minutes in the display.
Accumulator Pricing
If option d is set to d. 00, and the 6 code is set to one
coin 1, then accumulator pricing is in effect. Cycle time
can be purchased one coin at a time up to the maximum
time of 99 minutes.
Fixed Cycle With Top Off Pricing (available for use with coin
drops or tcard readers only)
A dryer set to offer "Top Off" capability will allow time to
be added to an existing dry cycle in increments equal to
the number of minutes of dry time per quarter (coin 1), up to
99 minutes, regardless of the cost required to start the dryer. No
credit is given for coins or debit inputs entered when the control
is displaying 99 minutes.
FREE CYCLES - This is established by setting the cycle price to
zero. When this happens, "SELECT CYCLE" will appear rather
than a cycle price. Any cycle started as a free cycle
will automatically terminate when the door is opened.
DEBIT CARD READY - This dryer is debit card ready.
It will accept a variety of debit card systems, but does NOT
come with a debit card reader. Refer to the debit card reader
manufacturer for proper dryer setup. When a Generation 2 card
reader is installed, the dryer is placed in enhanced debit mode.
In Enhanced Debit Mode, the top off price can be set
independently (see VALUE OF COIN 2), and the top off time
is calculated according to the following equation:
top off price top off time
full cycle price full cycle length
In models converted to a Generation I debit card system,
debit pulses represent the equivalent of one coin (coin 1).
NOTE: Enhanced debit mode cannot be deselected.
