Bring the dryer inside the wash tunnel, in the area to be installed. Verify orientation: The center producer is located
on the ENTRANCE SIDE.
Raise the dryer frame and secure both legs on each side of the frame. Use the highest set of ½” holes to secure
the legs to the cross beam (see picture #6). [the chase hole will not match up this is ok, the top set of two ½” holes
and the 3rd set down will match up to bolt the main beam to each leg]
Position the OUTSIDE EDGE of the DRIVER SIDE LEG 45” from the INSIDE EDGE of the INSIDE GUIDE RAIL
(see picture below) and if you have purchased a second Profiler Top unit 72” MINIMUM (CENTER LEG TO
CENTER LEG) BETWEEN THE PROFILER TOP UNITS.

in picture #6. [The base plates have two holes in the middle and are only needed in case one of corner drill holes
did not get to the minimum 5” depth.] *It is best to drill completely thru the concrete as a common practice when
drilling anchor holes.
