DRYER START UP
the final moisture content is to
be 15% (10% removal). Using
the all heat dryeration process,
the estimated drying time is 60
minutes (10 x 6).
10. While operating the dryer adjust
the METERING ROLL dials to
the recommended settings. See
the chart on page 00.
11. To move grain through the dryer
turn the MOISTURE CONTROL
switch to ON. The switch will
light up.
Note: When the UNLOAD switch is
in the 2 SPEED position, and the
MOISTURE CONTROL THERMO-
STAT switch is OFF, the speed of
the metering rolls can be manually
adjusted by turning the HIGH
SPEED METERING ROLL dial.
Turning the dial clockwise will IN-
CREASE the grain discharge rate,
counterclockwise will DECREASE
the discharge rate. (The numbers on
the speed dials indicate the percent-
age of full speed.)
12. At the end of the start-up pe-
riod, start the flow of grain out
of the dryer. Turn the UNLOAD
switch to the 2 SPEED posi-
tion. The bottom auger and
metering roll will immediately
start, and the unload switch will
light. If additional grain han-
dling equipment is utilizing the
unload auxiliary overload sup-
plied with the dryer, this equip-
ment will also immediately
start.
13. To shut the dryer down, CLOSE
the FUEL SUPPLY VALVE at
the fuel tank or fuel source. Let
the dryer run until the fuel sup-
ply lines drain, and the dryer
automatically shuts down due to
loss of flame. CLOSE the FUEL
valve at the dryer. Press the
DRYER POWER STOP button.

flow to the dryer.
5. The dryer should already be
filled with grain. Turn the LOAD
AUGER switch to AUTO. In both
the auto and manual position,
the grain level switch will auto-
matically keep the dryer full of
grain. In the auto position, the
dryer will shut down after the
preset time period on the OUT
