D. Sail Switch Assembly (Gas Models Only)

The sail switch is a heat circuit safety device which controls the burner circuit only. When the dryer is operating and there is proper airflow, the sail switch damper pulls in and closes the sail switch. Providing all the other heat- related circuits are functioning properly, ignition should now be established. If an improper airflow occurs, the sail switch damper will release, and the circuit will open.

To Replace Sail Switch

1.Discontinue power to dryer.

2.Remove the two (2) screws which hold the sail switch box cover to sail switch box.

3.Disconnect the two (2) wires from the switch.

4.Disassemble sail switch from mounting bracket by removing the two (2) screws securing switch in place.

5.Reverse this procedure for installing new sail switch. Adjust sail switch described in the next section.

To Adjust Sail Switch

With the dryer operating at a high temperature setting, pull the sail switch away from the burner. The sail switch should open and extinguish the burner. Let the sail switch damper return to the burner wall. The sail switch should close to restart the burner ignition cycle. If the sail switch circuit does not operate as described, bend the actuator arm of the sail switch accordingly until proper operation is achieved. To check proper "open" position of sail switch, open main door, manually depress main door switch and start dryer. With the main door open and the dryer operating, the sail switch should be open, and the burner should not come on.
