adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
Note: A forklift, or a hand pallet truck or jack, must lift the dryer and only from the front or rear of the dryer with
the washer bolted to the pallet and supported the full length of the dryer.
UNCRATING
Tools required: 3/4 in. (19 mm) hex socket and ratchet driver, knife, and groove-joint pliers that opens to 1 3/8
in. (35 mm).
1. Remove the plastic wrap with the knife. Remove the cardboard rails, the fillers and the top cap.
2. Using a ratchet driver and a 3/4 in. (19 mm) hex socket, remove the (4) bolts attaching the wooden skid to
the dryer cabinet. Save the bolts for future moving of the dryer.
3. With a walking motion, move the dryer forward completely off the wooden skid. Save the skid for future
moving of the dryer.
Note: If the dryer is ever moved again, the dryer should be re-mounted on its pallet and its crating bolts re-
inserted and tightened, in the reverse order as above.
DRYER ONLY INSTALLATION
1. Using the groove-joint pliers, install the leveling legs where the shipping bolts were removed when the
shipping bolts held the skid.
STACK WASHER / DRYER INSTALLATION
1. Place the dryer on the top of the washer and align with the (4) mounting holes. The front (2) mounting holes
are located inside the lint compartment 5½ in. (140 mm) from the front of the machine. The back (2)
mounting holes are located on the right/left side of the machine, at the base of the back panel. Removing the
rear guard is necessary to access the back mounting hole located opposite the duct work.
2. Use the (4) supplied 5/16 in. (8 mm) x 1-1/4 in. (32 mm) dog tip bolts to secure the dryer on the top of the
washer.
DRYER INSTALLATION
This appliance must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and used only in a sufficiently ventilated
space. Consult instructions before installation of this appliance.
1. CODE CONFORMITY. All commercial dryer installations must conform to local and the national codes for the
location of the installation and the venting requirements.
The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite
side to that of the tumble dryer, in such a way that a full opening of the tumble dryer door is restricted.
2. INSTALLATION CLEARANCES. This unit may be installed at the following alcove clearance. (millimeters)
I. Left Side 0 in.
II. Right Side 0 in. *
III. Back 18 in. (457) (Certified for 1 in. (25) clearance; however, 18 in. (457) clearance is
necessary behind the belt guard to allow servicing and maintenance.)
IV. Front 48 in. (1220) (to allow use of dryer)
V. Top Refer to figure on the next page labeled “Vertical Clearance Dimensions”. Certification
allows 0 in. clearance at the top 4 in. (100) back from the front. However, a 1/4 in. (6)
clearance should be allowed in case the dryer needs moving.
A 10 in. (254) clearance is required from the top at all other points.
VI. Floor This unit may be installed upon a combustible floor.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

8514-272-002 Rev PR page 9
Maintain minimum of 1 in. (25mm) clearance between duct and combustible material.
Refer to installation label attached to the rear guard of the dryer for other installation information.
VERTICAL CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS
3. MAKE-UP AIR. Adequate make-up air must be supplied to replace air exhausted by dryers on all types of
installations. Refer to specifications for the minimum amount of make-up air opening to outside for each dryer. This is a
net requirement of effective area. Screens, grills or louvers, which will restrict the flow of air, must be considered.
Consult the supplier to determine the free area equivalent for the grill being used. The source of make-up air should be
located sufficiently away from the dryers to allow an even airflow to the air intakes of all dryers. Multiple openings
should be provided.
NOTE: The following considerations must be observed for gas dryer installations where dry cleaners are installed.
The sources of all make-up air and room ventilation air movement to all dryers must be located away from any
dry cleaners. This is necessary so that solvent vapors will not be drawn into the dryer inlet ducts. Dry cleaner
solvent vapors will decompose in contact with open flame such as the gas flame present in clothes dryers. The
decomposition products are highly corrosive and will cause damage to the dryer(s) ducts and clothes loads.
The operation of this appliance may affect the operation of other types of gas appliances, which take their air for
safe combustion from the same room. Adequate ventilation must be provided to avoid back flow of gasses from
other appliances in the same room. All other gas appliances should be tested with the Dexter dryer in operation
and all the windows and doors closed. If in doubt, consult the appliance manufacturer(s).
4. ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS.
The electrical installation must be performed by a qualified electrical technician.
The electrical power requirements necessary to operate the unit satisfactorily are listed on the serial plate located on
the back panel of each dryer and in the specifications section of this manual. The electrical connection should be
made to the terminal board, on the rear of the unit using copper conductors of 15A minimum capacity. A 22 mm

8514-272-002 Rev PR page 10
(7/8 in.) hole is provided for the connection of conduit for the power supply conductors. It is absolutely necessary
that the dryer be connected to a known earth. Individual circuit breakers for each dryer are required.
Introduction of supply wiring must not increase the Ingress Protection (IP) rating.
The installation must meet the National Electrical Requirements of the country, state, or locality of installation.
The installer must provide a disconnect switch which will interrupt both lines. It may be a local or national
requirement to provide an electrical interruption switch visible and accessible from the room in which the dryer is
installed. The wiring diagram is located on the belt guard on the back of the machine.
For destination countries where CE requirements must be met, individual 230V supply disconnecting devices for
each dryer are required and must be one of the following types:
a. switch-disconnector with fuses per IEC 60947-3 utilization category AC-23B;
b. disconnector with fuses per IEC 60947-3 having an auxiliary contact that in all cases causes switching devices
to break the load circuit before the opening of the main contacts of the disconnector;
c. a circuit-breaker suitable for isolation per IEC 60947-2;
d. any other switching device in accordance with an IEC product standard for that device and which meets the
isolation requirements of IEC 60947-1 as well as a utilization category defined in the product standard as
appropriate for on-load switching of motors or other inductive loads;
The supply disconnecting devices must
a. provide a means allowing the supply disconnecting devices to be locked in the OFF position;
b. be mounted 0.7 m to 1.7 m above the floor, within 2 m from the dryer, and within 8 m from the operator
position;
c. have a red actuator to indicate that it serves a dual Emergency Stop function;
d. be rated for branch circuit operation;
e. be approved for use in the country where installed;
CONTROL TRANSFORMER CONNECTIONS Adjustment for different voltages of supply mains.
IMPORTANT: TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSORS
Like most electrical equipment, your new machine can be damaged or have its life shortened by voltage surges
due to lightning strikes which are not covered by factory warranty. Local power distribution problems also can
be detrimental to the life of electrical components. We recommend the installation of transient voltage surge
suppressors for your new equipment. These devices may be placed at the power supply panel for the complete
installation and don’t require an individual device for each machine.
These surge protectors help to protect equipment from large spikes and also from small ongoing spikes in the
power that occur on a day to day basis. These smaller surges can shorten overall life of electrical components of
all types and cause their failure at a later date. Although they can’t protect against all events, these protective
devices have a good reputation for significantly lengthening the useful life of electronic components. Electronic

8514-272-002 Rev PR page 11
components are helped to have a longer useful life when they are supplied with the clean stable electrical power
they like.
We are including the following names and phone numbers of a few suppliers of these devices for those who don’t
currently have a source.

The inlet gas connection to the unit is ISO 7-RC 3/4 thread. The connection to the appliance shall be made with
a flexible hose suitable for the appliance category in accordance with national installation regulations. The size of
the piping to supply the dryer should be determined by reference to the national installation practice and
consultation with the local gas supplier.
A joint compound resistant to the action of all gases should be employed in making pipe connections.
A drip tee should be provided in the gas piping entering the unit to catch dirt and other foreign articles.
All pipe connections should be checked for leakage with soap solution. Never check with an open flame.
Note: There are two 9 mm pressure taps, one at the inlet side, one at the outlet side of the gas valve, for use, if
it is necessary, to check either pressure.
PRESSURE REGULATOR ADJUSTMENT
Adjustments should be made by qualified personnel only.
1. With the dryer off, unscrew the outlet pressure tap on the gas control valve a half turn and slip a pressure
gauge tube over the nipple. Ensure that screw is retightened after the regulator is adjusted.
2. Remove the regulator cap screw to expose the regulator adjustment screw.
3. Start the dryer. Using a screwdriver, slowly turn the adjustment screw until the required burner pressure is
indicated on the pressure gauge. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase and counter-clockwise to
decrease the gas pressure to the burner. Turn dryer off.
4. Replace the pressure regulator cap screw.
5. Remove the pressure gauge and retighten the pressure tap screw.
For altitudes above 2,000 feet (610m), it is necessary to de-rate the BTU input. Contact your local distributor for
instructions.

CAUTION: The dryer and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (35 mbar). The dryer must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (35 mbar).
6. EXHAUST INSTALLATION. Exhausting of the dryer(s) should be planned and constructed so that no air
restrictions occur. Any restriction due to pipe size or type of installation can cause slow drying time, excessive
heat, and lint in the room.
From an operational standpoint, incorrect or inadequate exhausting can cause a cycling of the high limit thermostat
which shuts off the main burners and results in inefficient drying.
Individual exhausting of the dryers is required. All heat, moisture, and lint should be exhausted outside by
attaching a pipe of the proper diameter to the dryer adapter collar and extending it out through an outside wall.
This pipe must be very smooth on the inside, as rough surfaces tend to collect lint which will eventually clog the
duct and prevent the dryer from exhausting properly. All elbows must be smooth on the inside. All joints must
be made so the exhaust end of one pipe is inside the next one downstream. The addition of an exhaust pipe
tends to reduce the amount of air the blower can exhaust. This does not affect the dryer operation if held within
practical limits. For the most efficient operation, it is recommended that no more than 14' (4.25m) of straight 8
in. (203mm) diameter pipe be used with two right angle elbows. The design of the vent system shall be such
that any condensate formed when operating the dryer from cold shall either be retained and re-evaporated or
discharged.
Maintain minimum 1 in. (25) clearance between duct and combustible material.
If the exhaust pipe passes through a wall, a metal sleeve of slightly larger diameter should be set in the wall and
the exhaust pipe passed through this sleeve. This practice is required by some local codes and is recommended in
all cases to protect the wall. This type of installation should have a means provided to prevent rain and high winds
from entering the exhaust when the dryer is not in use. A hood with a hinged damper can be used for this purpose.
Another method would be to point the outlet end of the pipe downward to prevent entrance of wind and rain. In
either case, the outlet should be kept clear, by at least 24 in. (610 mm), of any objects which would cause an air
restriction.
Never install a protective screen over the exhaust outlet.
When exhausting a dryer straight up through a roof, the overall length of the duct has the same limits as exhausting
through a wall. A rain cap must be placed on top of the exhaust and must be of such a type as to be free from
clogging. The type using a cone shaped “roof” over the pipe is suitable for this application.
Exhausting the dryer into a chimney or under a building is not permitted. The exhaust air should not be vented
into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of building. In these cases, there is a danger of lint build-up which
can be highly combustible.
7. DRYER IGNITION (SOLID STATE IGNITION). The solid state ignition system lights the main burner gas
by spark. The gas is ignited and burns only when the gas-valve relay (in the electronic controller) calls for heat.
The procedure for first-time starting of a dryer is as follows:
A. First, review and comply with the “WARNINGS ABOUT USE AND OPERATION” found on the inside front
cover of this manual. Be sure the electrical power supply is connected correctly. The white (neutral) wire
is to be connected to the N terminal while the black (line) wire to the L1 terminal of the terminal block in
the rear control box. The dryer MUST be properly earthed.
B. Make sure all gas supply lines are purged of air. Close the main gas shut-off valve and wait for five minutes
before turning the valve back on.
C. Turn on main electrical power switch. The dryer may be started by following the “OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS” found later in this manual.
D. Natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas fired dryers both operate in the same manner. When gas-valve
relay contacts are closed (indicating a demand for heat), the solid state ignition control will automatically

8514-272-002 Rev PR page 14
supply energy to the redundant gas valve after a 15 second pre-purge. Spark will continue until a flame is
detected by the sensing probe, but not longer than 4 seconds. If the gas fails to ignite within 4 seconds, the
gas valve closes and the system will "lock out". No further attempts at ignition will be performed
automatically. It is then necessary to interrupt electrical power to the ignition system before making
another attempt to light the burners. This can be done by opening the dryer door, allowing the dryer to
come to a stop for 15 seconds, closing the door, and pushing the "Start" button. The dryer will then
repeat the ignition trial cycle.
8. MAIN BURNER ADJUSTMENT. The primary air shutter of each main burner must be properly adjusted for
the correct air-gas ratio. Loosen the shutter locking screw. Adjust the shutter by closing it sufficiently to give a
blue flame with a yellow tip. Next, open the shutter until the yellow tips are at a minimum. After adjustment,
securely lock each shutter in position by tightening the shutter locking screws.
NOTE: The A-weighted emission sound pressure level does not exceed 70dB(A). The operator does not need
hearing protection.
NOTE: The dryer does not emit hazardous radiation.
WARNING: To avoid potential risks of spontaneous combustion of a load, remove the load quickly
after the completion of the cycle or in case of failure of power supply.
DANGER: Do not dry loads which may create an explosive atmosphere in the dryer.
DRYER SHUTDOWN
To render the dryer inoperative, turn off the main gas shut-off valve and disconnect electrical power to the dryer.
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE INSTALLER TEST THE DRYER FOR OPERATION AND INSTRUCT THE USER
BEFORE LEAVING THE INSTALLATION.

turn on the red indicator light showing the selected temperature.
4. Press the “start” button to start dryer. This will turn on the green indicator light. The drying time purchased
is now displayed. The colon begins flashing to indicate that the timer is counting down.
RUNNING THE DRYER
-Opening the door will stop the dryer, but the timer will continue to count down. The dryer will restart, if time
has not expired, upon closing the door and pressing the “start” button.
-Selected temperature may be changed at any time (unless Temperature Pricing feature is activated).
-Running time may be extended by depositing coins and pressing the “start” button. Unless time has expired,
the controller will accept coins whether or not the original vend price is equaled.
-If time has run out, the dryer must be restarted as if it was at the beginning of drying the load, which requires
meeting or exceeding the vend price.
-Clothes should be removed promptly after the cycle is completed to prevent excessive wrinkling.
-Cool-down time (owner programmable) is always part of the cycle time to prevent damage from heat and is
purchased by the customer. For example, if the cool-down time is 2 minutes, then the last 2 minutes of the cycle
will have no heat.

PROGRAMMING THE DRYER CONTROL
The dryer control can be programmed to prompt the user for alternate vend prices, change dryer cycle times,
temperatures and many other options. This can be accomplished in two ways:
1. Manual programming utilizing the “Start”, “High”, “Medium” and “Low” buttons for the bottom dryer.
2. USB download of a customizable User File. For instructions on using the USB download feature, please
contact your local Dexter distributor or visit DexterLive.com.
MANUAL PROGRAMMING:
The dryer must be in idle mode for the manual programming menus to be accessed. Idle mode is when the dryer
is not actively running a drying cycle and the vend price is displayed on the screen.
To enter the manual programming mode, the control tray on the dryer must be unlocked and pulled out to reveal
the programming button. The programming button is then pressed for 1 second. The control should display
“DRYER PROGRAMMING”.
See the figure below for the location of the programming button on the control tray.

When manual programming mode is entered, the “Start”, “High”, “Medium” and “Low” buttons perform alternate
functions.
Button Name Alternate Function in Programming Mode
Start Becomes the action to accept the displayed option or the “Enter” key
High
Becomes the action to move UP through displayed options (Press & hold for accelerated
scrolling)
Medium
Becomes the action to move DOWN through displayed options (Press & hold for accelerated
scrolling)
Low
Becomes the action to move back a step (1 press) or EXIT from programming mode (press
for 3 seconds)
These alternate functions allow the user to move through a menu of options to choose various programmable
settings. The figure below shows the top level menu. Choosing an option from the top level menu will then
display the next level of options (the sub menu).
Quick Test Option:
When the Quick Test Option is chosen, the dryer will begin a shortened dry cycle without the displayed vend
price being met. The purpose of this shortened cycle is to test all major components for proper operation.
Error Codes should all function normally during this test. The display will show customer prompts in a similar way
to a normal dry cycle.
Continuous Test Option:
Similar to the Quick Test, when the Continuous Test Option is chosen, the dryer will begin a dry cycle without the
displayed vend price being met. However, in this case, it will be a continuously-running cycle. It will not time out
after any designated amount of time.
CAUTION: This option is meant for factory use only. Do not operate the dryer with this cycle active without
factory authorization.

Error Code Historical Log:
The last five occurring error codes will be stored in the control with a time and date stamp. The purpose of this
option is only to observe the history of these code occurrences (no changes can be made). The time is based off
the Real Time Clock, but potentially shifted by the user’s manual programming changes (Shift Hours option)
and/or network time override. As additional error codes occur, the oldest of the five logged codes is cleared from
memory.
Prices Option:
This option allows the user to set values for coin acceptor inputs, vend price & time and extend dry price & time.
It also allows the user to return the values to factory defaults. After changing prices using the “Up” or “Down”
buttons, the “Enter” button must be pressed again for the control to store the changes that have been made.
Note that, in general, time values are set in 1 minute increments. This can be changed to 30 second increments,
by changing the “Display Time” to “MIN+SEC” (refer to the “Settings” section”).
1. “RIGHT COIN” and “LEFT COIN” are the two possible inputs from coin acceptors.
2. “PRICE SET VEND” is the actual Base Vend Price (or Vend Price A) that is shown on the control display.
The value can be increased or reduced even down to “0”. In this case, the displays will prompt “FREE”
and the cycle will start as soon is the “Start’ button is pressed (without any vend price being met).
3. “TIME SET VEND” is the cycle time that the customer has available once they’ve met the Base Vend
Price.
4. “FREE SET TIME” is the cycle time that the customer has available if the Base Vend Price is set to “FREE”.
5. “EXTEND DRY” sets the price and time for additional drying time that becomes available after the
customer has already met the Base Vend Price.
To reset either the coin acceptor inputs or the vend price to factory default, press “Enter” when the “DEFAULT”
prompt is shown. Press “Enter” again when the “RESET” prompt is shown to confirm the action.
Example- A store owner has programmed the control for the following values:
Base Vend Price $1.00
Base Vend Time 30 minutes
Extend Dry Price $.25
Extend Dry Time 8 minutes
In this case, the customer adds 4 quarters to satisfy the $1.00 Vend Price. The display shows 30 minutes
of drying time. At this point, if an additional quarter is added, the customer display shows an additional 8
minutes of drying time (38 minutes total) as per the Extend Dry Price & Time.
The customer starts the drying cycle and at 25 minutes into the cycle (13 minutes displayed), they add
an additional quarter. The controller adds 8 minutes to the displayed time again (21 minutes total) as per
the Extend Dry Price & Time.
“AFTER CYCLE” allows the user to choose whether a customer is allowed to add “EXTEND DRY” time for up to 30
seconds after the dryer door is opened after a completed cycle.

Cycles Option:
This option allows the user to set temperature and cooldown information for the drying cycle. It also allows the
user to return the values to factory defaults.
1. “TEMP SETTINGS” allows the user to make adjustments, within a designated range, to the cycling
temperature for each of the “Low”, “Medium” and “High” customer choices.
2. In addition, on the “Low” setting, the user can reduce the cycling temperature below 110 degrees F. In
this case, when the customer chooses the “Low” setting, the dryer will not turn on the gas valve. When
checked, the displayed temperature will read “NO HEAT”. Press and hold the “start” button and the
active temperature button while the dryer is running to display the current dryer temperature.
3. “COOLDOWN” allows the user to change the designated time at the end of a cycle where the gas valve
relay is turned off. On “High” and “Medium” temperature settings, the designated time cannot be reduced
to less than 2 minutes.
4. “DEFAULT TEMP” allows the user to choose which general temperature setting, “High”, “Medium” or
“Low”, the control will default to at the beginning of each cycle if the customer does not make a choice.
5. “ANTI WRINKLE” is a feature that periodically rotates the dryers after a cycle is complete. If the door was
closed at the end of the cycle, and is left closed for 5 minutes, the enunciator will sound and the display
begins scrolling “ANTI WRINKLE”. 5 seconds later, the dryer motor will turn on for 60 seconds and then
turn off. The gas valves will not be turned on. The “ANTI WRINKLE” message will continue throughout
the time that the motor is turned on. The user can choose to enable or disable this feature.
To reset all values in the Cycles option to factory default, press “Enter” when the “DEFAULT” prompt is shown.
Press “Enter” again when the “RESET” prompt is shown to confirm the action.
