[] A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The

main vent should be sized to remove 200 CFM of air per

dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be

used in the main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The

room where the dryers are located should have make-up air

equal to or greater than the CFM of all the dryers in the room.

[] Back-draft Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is available from

your dealer and should be installed in the vent of each dryer

to prevent exhausted air from returning into the dryers and

to keep the exhaust in balance within the main vent.

Unobstructed 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 loads being dried.

A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic

cleaning of the vent system.

If an exhaust hood cannot be used:

The outside end of the main vent should have a sweep elbow

directed downward. If the main vent travels vertically through the

roof, rather than through the walt, install a 180° sweep elbow on

the end of the vent at least 2 ft. (610 mm) above the highest part

of the building. The opening in the walt or roof shall have a

diameter 1Z2"(13 mm) larger than the vent diameter. The vent

should be centered in the opening.

INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS- MOVEDRYERINTOPOSITION

The console houses the electronic control board. The board is

factory set for a dry time of 45 minutes. Consult the tech sheet

found inside the dryer toe panel to reset dry time and for other

options.

The card reading mechanism is not included, but is available from

/our usual industry sources.

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install dryer.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving to

avoid damaging floor covering.

1. Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation

location.

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

the literature and parts packages. Wipe the interior of the

drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

3. Take two of the cardboard corners from the 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.

4. With one of the legs in hand, check the ridges for a diamond

marking which indicates how far the leg is supposed to go

into the hole.

5. Start to screw the leveling legs into the holes by hand. (Use a

small amount of liquid detergent to lubricate the screw

threads so it is easier to turn the legs.) Use a 1" (25 mm)

wrench or socket wrench to finish turning the legs until you

reach the diamond mark.

6. Now stand the dryer up.

7. Remove cardboard or hardboard from under dryer. Adjust the

legs of the dryer up or down until the dryer is level.
