TECHNICAL INFORMATION

The following section contains various technical information important to the service person in servicing and maintaining the dryer.

A. MOTOR PLATE (HIGH and LOW VOLTAGE)

The motor plate is located on the side of the drive motor (refer to illustration) and contains a graphical representation of the motor wiring for both low voltage rating and high voltage rating.

Removing the cap reveals the wiring to the motor. On each wire there is a number which corresponds to the numbers on the motor plate. Depending on whether the dryer is operating on low voltage or high voltage, the wiring should match the motor plate as follows:

The dots and lines represent connections (refer to illustration).

For example:

On low voltage - wire no. 14 is connected to wire no. 4

-wire no. 1 is connected to wire no. 7, which in turn are both connected to L1 On high voltage - wire no. 14 is insulated or capped

-wire no. 4 is connected to wire no. 7

-wire no. 1 is connected to L1
