90 DAYS

1.Remove lint from around basket (tumbler), drive motors, and surrounding areas.

2.Remove lint from gas valve burner area with a dusting brush or vacuum cleaner attachment.

3.Clean any lint accumulation in and around both the blower and drive motor casing openings.

NOTE: To prevent damage, avoid cleaning or touching the hot surface ignitor assembly.

EVERY 6 MONTHS

Inspect and remove lint accumulation in customer furnished exhaust duct work system and from dryers internal exhaust ducting.

NOTE: THE ACCUMULATION OF LINT IN THE EXHAUST DUCT WORK CAN CREATEAPOTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

NOTE: DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION and VENTILATION AIR.

CHECK CUSTOMER FURNISHED BACK DRAFT DAMPERS IN THE EXHAUST DUCT WORK. INSPECT and REMOVE ANY LINT ACCUMULATION WHICH CAN CAUSE THE DAMPER TO BIND or STICK.

NOTE: A back draft damper that is sticking partially closed can result in slow drying and shut-down of heat circuit safety switches or thermostats.

NOTE: When cleaning the dryer cabinets, avoid using harsh abrasives. Aproduct intended for the cleaning of appliances is recommended.

B. ADJUSTMENTS

7 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION and EVERY 6 MONTHS THEREAFTER

Inspect bolts, nuts, screws, (bearing set screws), nonpermanent gas connections (unions, shut-off valves, orifices, and grounding connections). Motor and drive belts should be examined. Cracked or seriously frayed belts should be replaced. Tighten loose V-belts when necessary. Complete operational check of controls and valves. Complete operational check of ALL safety devices (door switches, lint drawer switch, sail switch, burner and hi-limit thermostats).

C. LUBRICATION

The motor bearings, idler bearings, and under normal/most conditions the tumbler bearings are permanently lubricated. It is physically possible to re-lubricate the tumbler bearings if you choose to do so even though this practice is not necessary. Use Shell Alvania #3 grease or its equivalent. The tumbler bearings used in the dryer does not have a grease fitting. Provisions are made in the bearing housing for the addition of a grease fitting which can be obtained elsewhere.
