Do not place into tumble dryer articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with gasoline or machine oils, vegetable or cooking oils, cleaning waxes or chemicals, dry-cleaning solvents, thinner or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite, explode or cause fabric to catch on fire by itself.

Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance while it is in operation.

Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows filled with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer. Do not use the appliance to dry materials with a low melting temperature (PVC, rubber, etc.).

Do not tumble fiberglass curtains and draperies unless the label says it can be done. If they are dried, wipe out the cylinder with a damp cloth to remove particles of fiberglass.

Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children less than three years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.

Do not reach into the tumble dryer if the cylinder is revolving.

Use tumble dryer only for its intended purpose, drying fabrics. Always follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the textile manufacturer and only use the dryer to dry textiles that have been washed in water. Only insert spin-dried linen in the dryer to avoid damage to dryer.

Always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning aids. Follow all warnings or precautions. To reduce the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep them out of the reach of children at all times (preferably in a locked cabinet).

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

Remove laundry immediately after tumble dryer stops.

DO NOT operate the tumble dryer if it is smoking, grinding or has missing or broken parts or removed guards or panels. DO NOT tamper with the controls or bypass any safety devices.

Tumble dryer will not operate with the loading door open. DO NOT bypass the door safety switch to permit the tumble dryer to operate with the door open. The tumble dryer will stop rotating when the door is opened. Do not use the tumble dryer if it does not stop rotating when the door is opened or starts tumbling without pressing the START mechanism. Remove the tumble dryer from use and call for service.

Tumble dryer will not operate with lint panel open. DO NOT bypass lint panel door safety switch to permit the tumble dryer to operate with the lint panel door open.

Do not alter this tumble dryer from factory construction except as otherwise described in the technical instructions.

Always clean the lint filter daily. Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding area free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt. The interior of the tumble dryer and the exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

Solvent vapors from dry-cleaning machines create acids when drawn through the heater of the drying unit. These acids are corrosive to the tumble dryer as well as the laundry load being dried. Be sure make-up air is free of solvent vapors.

At the end of each working day, close off all main supplies of gas, steam and electricity.

IMPORTANT: For fire suppression equipped tumble dryers, electricity and water should NOT be turned off.

Do not repair or replace any part of the tumble dryer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that the user understands and has the skills to carry out. ALWAYS disconnect and lockout the electrical power to the tumble dryer before servicing. Disconnect power by shutting off appropriate breaker or fuse.

Safety Information

Activation of the emergency stop switch stops all tumble dryer control circuit functions, but DOES NOT remove all electrical power from tumble dryer.

Exhaust ductwork should be examined and cleaned annually after installation.

Before the tumble dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment and the door to the lint compartment.

Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this tumble dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in conditions which can produce bodily injury and/or property damage.

NOTE: The WARNINGS and IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Observe and be aware of other labels and precautions that are located on the machine. They are intended to provide instruction for safe use of the machine. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised when installing, maintaining, or operating the tumble dryer.

Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions you do not understand.

Pre-Installation Inspection

Upon delivery, visually inspect the crate, carton and parts for any visible shipping damage. If the crate, carton, or cover is damaged or signs of possible damage are evident, have the carrier note the condition on the shipping papers before the shipping receipt is signed, or advise the carrier of the condition as soon as it is discovered.

Remove the crate and protective cover as soon as possible and check the items listed on the packing list. Advise the carrier of any damaged or missing articles as soon as possible. A written claim should be filed with the carrier immediately if articles are damaged or missing.

IMPORTANT: Remove the yellow shipping wire tie securing the airflow switch.

IMPORTANT: Warranty is void unless tumble dryer is installed according to instructions in this manual. Installation should comply with minimum specifications and requirements detailed in this manual and applicable local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, water supply regulations, electrical wiring regulations, and any other relevant statutory regulations. Due to varied requirements, applicable local codes should be thoroughly understood and all pre-installation work arranged for accordingly.

Optional – Two vacuum breakers for con-

 

densate return lines.

 

 

IMPORTANT: 3 Phase Only – Each tumble dryer must be connected to its own individual branch circuit breaker, not fuses, to avoid the possibility of “single phasing” and causing premature failure of the motor(s).

Location Requirements

The tumble dryer must be installed on a level floor. Floor covering materials such as carpeting or tile should be removed.

To assure compliance, consult local building code requirements. The tumble dryer must not be installed or stored in area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the rear of the tumble dryer with laundry or other articles. Doing so would prevent adequate air supply to the combustion chamber of the tumble dryer.

A typical tumble dryer enclosure is shown in Figure 2 .

IMPORTANT: Install tumble dryers with sufficient clearance for servicing and operation, refer to Figure 2 .

WARNING

To reduce the risk of severe injury, clearance of tumble dryer cabinet from combustible construction must conform to the minimum clearances, and/or local codes and ordinances.

Figure 2

Position and Level the Tumble Dryer

The tumble dryer may be moved with or without the skid. To remove the skid, unscrew the four shipping bolts, and discard them.

Level the tumble dryer to within 0.13 inch [3.3 mm] from front- to-rear (level on cylinder rib), and side-to-side (level on upper access panel top surface). Shim under corners to level and stabilize unit. Tumble dryer must not rock.

To fit a 170 and 200 tumble dryer (with shipping skid) through a 8.0 foot [2.4 meters] high door, you must remove the front access panel. The upper 3.0 inches [76 mm] of the gas heater must also be removed on 170 gas tumble dryers. Removing the entire gas or steam heater assembly and the shipping skid, will reduce the height of the 120 tumble dryer to 70 inches [1,780 mm], and the 170 and 200 tumble dryer to 75 inches [1,910 mm].

Mounting

Where local code requires the unit to be securely mounted, use the shipping bolt frame holes found on the tumble dryer frame. Use either epoxy 3/8 in. [10 mm] bolts or equivalent 3/8 in. [10 mm] concrete anchors, such as expandable bolts.

Installation

Fire Suppression System (Optional

Equipment)

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury. If the water dispensing system is activated, do not attempt to operate the tumble dryer. If the water dispensing system is activated, have the tumble dryer inspected by a qualified agency before operating the tumble dryer.

W879R1

IMPORTANT: Main supplies of electricity and water to the tumble dryer should remain on at all times for the fire suppression system to work.

Check Local Codes and Permits

Call your local water company or the proper municipal authority for information regarding local codes.

IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to have ALL plumbing connections made by a qualified professional to assure that the plumbing is adequate and conforms to local, state, and federal regulations or codes.

IMPORTANT: It is the installation or owner’s responsibility to confirm that the necessary or required water, water pressure, pipe size, or connections are provided. Manufacturer assumes no responsibility if the fire suppression system is not connected, installed, or maintained properly.

Water Requirements

IMPORTANT: Water must be supplied to the fire suppression system, or the fire suppression system will not operate as intended.

To ensure the fire suppression system operates properly:

Water supply requirements: 3/4 inch hose connections providing 15 gpm [57 lpm] minimum flow; Water pressure 20 psi

[138 kPa] minimum, 120 psi [827 kPa] maximum; water temperature 40°F [4.5°C] minimum, 120°F [49°C] maximum must be maintained at all times.

Electric power to the tumble dryer must be provided at all times.

Perform preventative maintenance checks every month. Refer to Operation/Maintenance Manual.

NOTE: Water pressure under 20 psi [138 kPa] will cause low flow at water solenoid valve.

If the rear of the tumble dryer or the water supply is located in an area where it will be exposed to cold/freezing temperatures, provisions must be made to protect these water lines from freezing.

IMPORTANT: Temperature of the water supply must be kept between 40°F and 120°F [4.5°C and 49°C]. If water in the supply line or water solenoid valve freezes, the fire suppression system will not operate.

IMPORTANT: If temperature sensors inside the tumble dryer register a temperature below 40F° [4.5°C], the fire suppression system control will lock out. This feature protects against operation of the tumble dryer with a possible frozen water supply. Only when the temperature sensors register a temperature above 40F° [4.5°C] will the machine reset for operation.

IMPORTANT: Flexible supply line/coupling must be used. Solenoid valve failure due to hard plumbing connections will void the warranty. It is recommended that a filter or strainer be installed in the water supply line.

Water Connections

Connect machine to a backflow preventer (vacuum breaker) before connecting to the public water main in all countries where local regulations require specific water approval certificates.

Two hoses and a Y-valve are provided with the tumble dryer to allow for connection of water supply to tumble dryer. The water connections are made to the bushings of the water solenoid valve, located on the rear of the tumble dryer. The Y-valve provides a single female hose connection (Standard US 3/4-11 1/2 NH thread). Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 .

Connect inlet hoses to water supply. Flush the lines for approximately two minutes to remove any foreign materials that could clog the screens in the water mixing valve. This is especially important when installing a tumble dryer in a newly constructed or

renovated building. Then connect the hoses to the Y-valve; connect the Y-valve to the connections at the rear of the tumble dryer.

IMPORTANT: Thread hose couplings onto valve connections finger tight, then turn 1/4 turn with pliers. Do not cross thread or overtighten couplings.

IMPORTANT: Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after extended use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the temperature and constant high pressure they are subjected to. All hoses should be checked on a yearly basis for any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced every five years.

NOTE: Longer inlet hoses are available (as optional equipment at extra cost) if the hoses supplied with the tumble dryer are not long enough for installation. Order hoses as follows:

Part No. 20617 Inlet hose 8 feet [2.44 m]

Part No. 20618 Inlet hose 10 feet [3.05 m]

NOTE: Replacement outlet hoses are available (at extra cost). Order 44073302 Hose, 21 in. [53 cm ] for 120 series and 44073303, 31 in. [79 cm] for 170 and 200 series.
