For vent systems not covered by the vent specification chart,

see your parts distributor.

Provision must be made for enough air for combustion and ventilation. (Check governing codes and ordinances.) See "Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions" in the

"Location Requirements" sections. A 4" (102 ram) outlet hood is preferred. However, a 21/2'' (64 mm)

outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 21/2'' (64 mm) outlet creates greater back pressure than other hood types. For permanent

installation, a stationary vent system is required.

Connect Vent

1. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.

2. Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet

in dryer.

Vent Collar

Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (305 mm) from the ground or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as flowers, rocks, bushes, or snow).

3. Tighten hose clamp with Phillips screwdriver.

4. Make sure the vent is secured to exhaust hood with a 4" (102 ram) clamp.

5. Move dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink vent.

Make sure dryer is level.

NOTE: Do not remove vent collar.

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed downward.

12" rnin.

(305 rnrn)*

*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 fl.

(610 mm) above surface of roof.

The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1/2" (13 mm) larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.

Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

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 dampers are 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. Although usually each single-load dryer should have an

unobstructed outdoor air opening of 24 in? (154 cm 2) (based on 1 in? [6.5 cm 2] per 1,000 Btu [252 kcal]), common make-up air openings are also acceptable. Set up common openings so

the make-up air is distributed equally to all of the dryers. Keep

in mind that the coverage area must be increased by 330/0 to account for the use of registers or louvers over the openings. Also, make-up air openings should not be installed near the

location where exhaust vents exit the building.

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.

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 toe panel. Use a putty knife

to press on the toe panel lock located at the center top of the toe panel. Pull downward on the toe panel to open. Toe panel is hinged at the bottom.

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 leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any

leaks found.

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.

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 near gas valve burner base.

Gas Supply Line

Recommended Method

Provide a gas supply line of 1/2" (13 ram) rigid (IPS) 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 ram) minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine size and materials used in the system.

Flexible Metal Appliance Connector

It is recommended that a new flexible stainless steel gas line, design-certified by CSA International, be used for connecting the dryer to the gas supply line. (The gas pipe which extends through the lower rear of the dryer is provided with 3/8" [10 mm] male pipe thread.)

Gas Supply Pressure Testing A 1/8" (3 mm) 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 3/8" (10 mm) 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.

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. Prepare dryer for leveling legs NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving

to avoid damaging floor covering. Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation

location. Take tape off front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove

the literature and parts packages. Wipe drum interior with a damp cloth to remove any dust.

Take two cardboard corners from the dryer carton and place them on the floor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp the body of the dryer and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard corners. Disconnect power before making electrical connections.

On some models: The meter case houses the factory-installed accumulator timer with actuating arm or service switch.

The factory-installed timer is set to provide 45 minutes (4 pins) of drying time when activated by the coin slide. Timer cams

for 30-minute (6 pins) and 60-minute (3 pins) drying times are

included in the parts bag. The coin slide mechanism, service door lock and key, and coin box

lock and key may not be included but are available from the usual industry sources.

1. Install coin slide and coin box

Remove the service door of the meter case by lifting it up at the back. Install the money-accepting device. (Refer to manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.)

For dryers using coin slides, use the adapter kit supplied with the dryer.

Replace the meter case service door. Put the coin vault with lock and key in the meter case opening.

Remove cardboard or hardboard from under dryer. Adjust the legs of the dryer up or down until the dryer is level.

2. Screw in leveling legs Examine leveling legs and find diamond

marking. Screw legs into leg holes by hand. Use an adjustable wrench or

1" (25 mm) hex-head socket wrench

to finish turning legs until diamond marking is no longer visible. Then fit a covered foot boot over each leg foot.

To protect the floor, use a large piece of cardboard from the dryer carton. Stand dryer up on the cardboard. Slide the dryer until it is close to its final location. Leave enough room for electrical

connection and to connect the exhaust vent.
