A. UNPACKING and SETTING UP

Remove protective shipping material (i.e., plastic wrap and optional shipping box) from dryer.

IMPORTANT: Dryer must be transported and handled in an upright position at all times.

NOTE: The key for the top control door, and bottom lint door is located in the information packaged and shipped in the dryer's tumbler. This key should be made accessible because it will be needed throughout various phases in the installation of the dryer.

The dryer can be moved to its final location while still attached to the skid or with the skid removed. To un-skid the dryer, locate and remove the four (4) bolts securing the base of the dryer to the wooden skid. Two (2) are at the rear base (remove the back panel for access), and two (2) are located in the bottom of the lint chamber. To remove the two (2) bolts located in the lint chamber area, remove the lint door.

With the skid removed, to make it easier to slide the dryer into its final position, slightly lower ALL four (4) leveling legs, so that the dryer will slide on the legs instead of the base frame.

To increase bearing life and improve efficiency, the dryer should be tilted slightly to the rear.

The lint coops of ALL MDG-30 Fast Dry model dryers are supported during shipping by a bracket. REMOVE THIS BRACKET BEFORE STARTING THE DRYER.

1.Leveling Dryer

The dryer is equipped with four (4) leveling legs, one at each corner of the base. Two (2) are located at the rear of the dryer base, and two (2) are located in the lint chamber (coop). To increase bearing life and improve efficiency, the dryer should be tilted slightly to the rear.
