Warning

!Fire or explosion could result due to failure of isolating or disconnecting the gas supply as noted.

Note

!Undersized gas piping will result in ignition problems, slow drying, increased use of energy,

and can create a safety hazard.

The dryer must be connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the data label and pressure must be confirmed. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, do not operate the dryer. Contact the distributor who sold the dryer or contact the manufacturer.

The input ratings shown on the data label are for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 meters), unless elevation requirements of over 2,000 feet (610 meters) were specified at the time the dryer order was placed with the factory. The adjustment or conversion of dryers in the field for elevations over 2,000 feet (610 meters) is made by changing each burner orifice. If this conversion is necessary, contact the distributor who sold the dryer or contact the manufacturer.

Important

!If connection to this appliance is made with a flexible hose, it must be suitable for the appliance

category in accordance with national installation regulations of the country of destination, and if in doubt the installer must contact the supplier. The manufacturer of this appliance does not recommend the use of flexible gas supply line/hose. An external gas supply shutoff must be provided.

CE Dryers

There are 2 N.P.T. to B.S.P.T. adaptors included with each dryer, which must be installed to the gas inlets. The adaptors are shipped in the upper tumbler.
