INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
3-24
Check to insure that steam damper is functioning properly.
The steam damper should not “slam” (open or closed) when it reaches the end of (piston)
travel. Additionally, the steam damper should not bind and / or stop during travel. If either of these
conditions occurs, the flow control must be adjusted. Refer to the bottom illustration for air
adjustment instructions.
6. Make a complete operational check of all safety – related circuits (i.e., lint drawer switch, and
sail switch on gas models).
NOTE: To check for proper sail switch operation, open the main door and while holding
main door switch plunger in, start dryer. Dryer should start but heat circuit
should not be activated (on). If heat (burner) does activate, shut dryer off and
make necessary adjustments.
7. A reversing basket (tumbler) dryer should never be operated with less than a 60 lb. load (dry
weight). The size of the load will affect the coast – down and dwell (stop) times. The basket
(tumbler) must come to a complete stop before starting in opposite direction.
Microprocessor (computer) Dryer Models
1) Spin and stop times are not adjustable in the Automatic Mode and have been
preprogrammed into the microprocessor controller (computer) for 120 – seconds spin
time and a 5 – second dwell (stop) time.
2) Spin and stop times are adjustable in the Manual (timed) Mode.
Dual Timer Dryer Models
Spin and stop times are adjustable at the reversing timer.
IMPORTANT: The dryer basket (tumbler) is treated with a protective coating. Suggests tumbling
old clothes or material in the basket (tumbler), using a mild detergent to remove
the protective coating.
8. Each dryer should be operated through one complete cycle to assure that no further
adjustments are necessary and that all components are functioning properly.
9. Make a complete operational check of all operating controls.
Microprocessor controller (computer) programs / selections
Each microprocessor controller (computer) has been preprogrammed by the factory
with the most commonly used parameter (program) selections. If computer program changes
are required, refer to the computer programming manual which was shipped with the dryer.
Dual timer dryers check.
1) Heating Timer
2) Cool Down Timer
3) Temperature Selection Switch
