INSTALLATION
This chapter contains installation instructions and includes the following sections:
2.1 Site and Utility Requirements
2.2 Installation Procedures
2.3 Pre-Operational Checkout
2.4 First Month Maintenance
The unit was tested under load conditions at the factory and inspected to ensure proper operation. It
was shipped in working condition and is completely assembled except for the receiving shelves and the
exhaust blower assembly. Sufficient strapping, blocking, and bracing were provided to give reasonable
assurance that no shipping damage would occur.
NOTE: If the unit is received in damaged condition, notify the carrier at once.
Chicago Dryer Company’s responsibility for shipping damage, other than the standard warranty, ceases
upon delivery to the carrier. For more information on the warranty, see the full page warranty statement
at the front of this manual.
2.1 Site and Utility Requirements
Figure 2-1 shows the clearance requirements for the unit. These are the minimum dimensions
recommended for efficient production, service, and maintenance access.
NOTE: The location of the unit is extremely important.
It is strongly recommended that sufficient clear space be provided to allow for removal of the gas
burner assembly from the left end frame for service, if necessary. If this clearance is not possible,
additional clearance to the front or rear of the unit should be provided so the unit can be rotated.
