bulding Which can accumulate Int, resulting In
ā fire hazard.
Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent
system, or use any screws, rivets or other
fasteners that extend Into the duct to assemble
the exhaust system. Lint can bacome caught
In tna screen, on tha screws or rivets, clogging
the duct work and creating a fire hazard as well
as Increasing drying times. Use an approved
vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors, and
Seal all joints with duct tape. All male duct pipa
fittings MUST be Installed downstream with tha
Tow of alr.

Do not Install the dryer where gasoline or other
Tlammables are kept or stored. Ir the dryer Is
Installed In a garage, It must be a minimum of 18
Inches (45.7 cm) above the floor. Fallur to do so
can result In death, explosion, Tire or bums.
1. Connect an inclined or digital manometer
cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with
normal usage. The more the dryer Is used,
tha more often you should check the exhaust
system and vent haod Tor proper operation.
Exhaust direction
between the dryer and the point the exhaust
connects to the dryer.
2. Betthe dryer timer and temperature to alr Tutt
(cool down) and start the dryer.
Directional exhausting can be accomplished by
Installing a quick-turn 90 dryer vent albow directty

3. Read the measurement an the manometer.
4. The system back pressure MUST NOT be
higher than 1.0 Inch of water column. Ifthe
system back pressure Is lass than 1.0 Inch of
water column, the system Is acceptable. If the
manometer reading Is higher than 1.0 Inch of
water column, the system Is too restrictive and
tna Installation Is unacceptable.
Although vertical orlentation of the exhaust system
Б acceptable, certain extenuating circumstances
could affect the performance of the dryer:
* Only the ngid metal duct work should be used.
* Venting vertically through a roof may expose
tna exhaust system to down drafts causing an
Increase In vent restriction.
* Running the exhaust system through an
uninsulated area may cause condensation and
faster accumulation of Int.
