is permanently connected to the neutral conductor (white
wire) within the dryer. If the dryer is installed with a 4-wire
electrical supply connecon, the neutral ground conductor
must be removed from the external ground connector
(green screw), and secured under the neutral terminal
(center or white wire) of the terminal block. When the
neutral ground conductor is secured under the neutral
terminal (center or white wire) of the terminal block, the
dryer cabinet is isolated from the neutral conductor.
■ If local codes do not permit the connecon of a neutral
ground wire to the neutral wire, see “Oponal 3-wire
connecon” secon.
■A 4-wire power supply connecon must be used when the
appliance is installed in a locaon where grounding through
the neutral conductor is prohibited. Grounding through the
neutral is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installaons
and (2) areas where local codes prohibit grounding through
the neutral conductor.

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow
directed downward.
If main vent travels vercally through the roof, rather than
through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least
2 . (610 mm) above surface of roof.
The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1⁄2" (13 mm)
larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.
Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.
12" min.
(305 mm)*
A main vent can be used for venng a group of dryers. The
main vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM)
of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design
may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.
The room where the dryers are located should have make-up
air equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.
Back-dra Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is available from
your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each
dryer to keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to
keep exhaust in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return
air openings are required.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle poinng in
the direcon of the airow. 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 uid fumes. Fumes
create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heang
units, can damage dryers and items being dried.
A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for
periodic cleaning of the vent system.

This dryer is equipped for use with natural gas. It is design-
cered by CSA Internaonal for LP (propane and butane)
gases with appropriate conversion. No aempt shall be made
to convert dryer from gas specied on serial/rang plate for use
with a dierent gas without consulng the serving gas supplier.
Conversion must be done by a qualied service technician.
Gas conversion kit part numbers are listed on gas valve burner
base.
Type of Gas
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
Recommended Method
Provide a gas supply line of 1⁄2" (13 mm) rigid (IPS) pipe to
dryer locaon. Pipe joint compounds that resist acon of LP
gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape. With LP gas,
piping or tubing size can be 1⁄2" (13 mm) minimum. Usually,
LP gas suppliers determine size and materials used in the
system.
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
A 1/8" (3 mm) NPT minimum plugged tapping, accessible for
gauge tesng, must be installed immediately downstream of
the installed shut-o valve to the dryer (as shown above). The
dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure tesng of the system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2" psig (352 kg/m2).
Alternate Method
The gas supply may also be connected using 3⁄8" (10 mm)
approved copper or aluminum tubing. If the total length of
the supply line is more than 20 . (6.1 m), larger tubing will
be required.
If using natural gas, do not use copper tubing. Pipe joint
compounds that resist acon of type of gas supplied must
be used.
Shut-off valve required
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shut-o
valve installed within 6 . (1.8 m) of dryer in accordance
with Naonal Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. This valve should
be located in same room as dryer. It should be in a locaon
that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to
shut-o valve. In Canada, an individual manual shut-o valve
must be installed in accordance with the B149 installaon
codes CAN/CGA B149.1 and CAN/CGA B149.2.
Gas Supply Line
Flexible Metal Appliance Connector
It is recommended that a new exible stainless steel gas line,
design-cered by CSA Internaonal, be used for connecng
the dryer to the gas supply line. (The gas pipe which extends
through the lower rear of the dryer is provided with 3⁄8"
[10 mm] male pipe thread.)
NOTE: Do not kink or damage the exible stainless steel gas
line when moving the dryer.
Rigid Pipe Connection
The rigid pipe connecon requires a combinaon of pipe
ngs to obtain an in-line connecon to the dryer.

1. Prepare dryer for leveling legs
NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving
to avoid damaging oor covering.
Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installaon
locaon.
Take tape o front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove
the literature and parts packages. Wipe drum interior with a
damp cloth to remove any dust.
Take two cardboard corners from the dryer carton and place
them on the oor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp the body
of the dryer and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard
corners.
3. Install coin slide and coin box
Remove the service door of the meter case by liing it up
at the back. Install the money-accepng device. (Refer to
manufacturer’s instrucons for proper installaon.)
For dryers using coin slides, use the adapter kit supplied with
the dryer.
Replace the meter case service door. Put the coin vault with
lock and key in the meter case opening.
Remove cardboard or hardboard from under dryer. Adjust the
legs of the dryer up or down unl the dryer is level.
4. Install added security device
Check that power is not supplied to the dryer.
Open and remove the service door.
Insert the narrow part of the security cone into the oblong
hole in the boom rear of the meter case assembly.
Pass the security bolt through this cone and thread it by hand
into the cage nut below the oblong hole.
Tighten the security bolt by hand a few turns before using a
wrench to ghten unl snug.

NOTE: Installing the security bolt provides added security, but
will add to the service me when the top needs to be removed
for servicing the dryer.
2. Screw in leveling legs
Examine leveling legs and nd diamond
marking. Screw legs into leg holes by
hand. Use an adjustable wrench or
25 mm (1") hex-head socket wrench
to nish turning legs unl diamond
marking is no longer visible.
To avoid damage to the oor, use a large piece of cardboard
from the dryer carton. Stand dryer up on the cardboard.
Slide the dryer unl it is close to its nal locaon. Leave
enough room for electrical connecon and to connect
the exhaust vent.
