GAS Valve Removal, Oven Removal | American Dryer Corp SL20, CG20

GAS VALVE REMOVAL:

Be sure to shut off the gas main and then proceed to remove electrical connections and screws indicated. Disconnect union and U-Bolt located just behind the union and the oven base. The U-Bolt is more easily accessed through the rear of the dryer.

The gas valve and burner orifice can now be pulled out through the front of the dryer.

When reinstalling the gas valve be sure to align the orifice with the opening in the burner tube bracket. Misaligning and forcing valve inward can drive the opposite end of the burner tube up against the flame-probe elements.

OVEN REMOVAL:

The oven can be removed with or without the gas valve in place.

Be sure to shut off the gas supply to the dryer. The back guard, heat duct, and lower front panel must be removed. Remove the gas valve electrical connections and remove the lint box / blower assembly. Remove the five screws (shown lower right) that are holding the burner to the rear bulkhead. Remove the two oven base nuts. With the lint box out of the way, the oven can be tilted on its side and pulled out through the front of the dryer.
