SECTION VI

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

A. CLEANING

A program and/or schedule should be established for periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the duct work system. The frequency of cleaning can best be determined from experience at each location. Maximum operating efficiency is dependent upon proper air circulation. The accumulation of lint can restrict this airflow. If the guidelines in this section are met, an ADC dryer will provide many years of efficient, trouble-free, and - most importantly - safe operation.

WARNING: LINT FROM MOST FABRICS IS HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE. THE ACCUMULATION OF LINT CAN CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

WARNING: KEEP DRYER AREA CLEAR and FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE and OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS and

LIQUIDS.

NOTE: REMOVE POWER FROM THE MACHINE BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE IN THE MACHINE (cleaning the lint drawers is the only exception).

NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average usage which is considered six (6) to eight (8) operational (running) hours per day.

SUGGESTED CLEANING SCHEDULE

EVERY THIRD or FOURTH LOAD

Clean the lint basket. A clogged lint basket will cause poor dryer performance. The lint basket is located in the lint drawer in the base of the dryer. Pull out the lint drawer, brush the lint off the lint basket, and remove the lint. Inspect the lint screen and replace if torn.

NOTE: The frequency of cleaning the lint screens can best be determined from experience at each location.

WEEKLY

Open the hinged panels on each side of the tumbler (basket) section and remove any lint accumulation from the tumbler (basket) drive motor, drive shafts, drive wheels, and drive shaft bearings.

Slide the lint basket ALL the way out of the dryer and clean any lint accumulation off of the temperature sensor bracket, which is located above the lint basket.
