CLEANING / MAINTENANCE
Disconnect power to the dryer before cleaning. It is recommended that you
refer to the WHO or CDC for handling guidelines when cleaning the Pre-Filter or
replacing the HEPA lter if either may have been exposed to a contagion.
OUTSIDE: Gently wash Cover (including air inlet holes) using a soft cloth
or sponge and a mild soap or detergent with lukewarm water to
loosen dirt and grime.
INSIDE: It is recommended to inspect the inside of the dryer and clean
at least twice per year. Excessive lint, dust or other particles in
the air may require more frequent cleaning. Lint on the air inlet,
the dryer Pre-Filter, HEPA lter (if so equipped) or other internal
parts of dryer will reduce efciency and shorten the life of the
working parts.
TO CLEAN: Use the Tamper-Proof Wrench supplied and remove the Tamper-
Proof Bolt on bottom of cover, lifting upwards to remove cover
from base plate. Gently clean all parts using a small soft brush.
Remove the PreFilter, rinse with water and dry. Inspect the
HEPA Filter (if so equipped) for any excessive debris buildup
whenever the Pre-Filter is removed. DO NOT CLEAN THE
HEPA FILTER OR ALLOW IT TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH
WATER. Reinstall the Pre-Filter, cover and restore power.

prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

PRE-INSTALLATION WIRING
• Check that the electrical supply corresponds to that shown
on the rating sticker of unit. If the dryer is connected to any
electrical supply other than that stated on the rating sticker of
the unit, permanent damage or improper, unsafe operation of
the unit may result.
• Make sure electricity is switched off at the main panel before
installing, maintaining or cleaning this hand dryer. Dryer
must be installed in accordance with current local wiring and
building regulations.
• Dryer is intended to be permanently connected to power
supply, and must be properly grounded.
SAFETY
• Troubleshooting and internal maintenance must be performed
by qualied service personnel.
• Do not use any power wash equipment for cleaning on or
near this unit.
• Do not use for drying hair.
• Do not obstruct air inlets or outlets.
1. Disconnect the power source previously brought to the hand
dryer location (see pre-installation wiring above).
2. Use the Tamper-Proof Wrench supplied and remove the
Tamper-Proof Bolt on bottom of cover lifting upwards to
remove cover from base plate.
3. If electrical wiring entry is to be made from the rear, remove
the appropriate pre-formed knockout on the base plate. If
entry is to be made from the side, knock out the preformed
area on the right side of cover for your supply connection
using knockout gasket provided. A rigid conduit must be
used. For models with metal covers, if the side entry for
conduit is required, this must be specied in advance and
the side entry can be pre-cut and proper grommet applied by
the manufacturer.
4. Select the appropriate mounting height for dryer (Table 1)
and fastener, as recommended (Table 2). There should
be no obstruction between the hand dryer and the oor.
If mounting over a countertop, distance from counter to dryer
must be 15” (381 mm) minimum.
CAUTION: Do not use Base Plate as a guide when drilling.
Make sure no pipe work (gas, water, air) or any electrical cables
or wires are located directly behind the area to be drilled.
5. Attach Base Plate at the four corners to smooth wall.
Use one of 2 knockouts provided for service entry on back of
Base Plate. If using surface wiring use knock out in right side
of cover. Use Knockout Gasket supplied around conduit for
water seal. See Mounting Details.
6. Identify the voltage of your dryer from the rating sticker of
the unit. Then connect to a circuit per your local wiring and
building regulations.
7. Secure electrical wiring to terminals as indicated by the
schematic afxed to blower housing. An identied ground
connection point is supplied on the Base Plate for your
equipment ground wire. Dryers should be installed per local
code requirements.
8. In multiple installations, make sure the serial number marked
on the inside matches the cover number. Then carefully
replace Cover by inserting top of cover over bracket and
tilting downward. Use Tamper-Proof Bolt previously
removed in step 2.
9. Restore power and test for proper operation.
10. Return Tamper-Proof Wrench to owner.
