Metered Models

Set FABRIC SELECTOR switch at NORMAL. Place coins in the slide and carefully push slide in as far as possible. IN USE light will come on indicating the dryer is ready to operate. Close the loading door and press the PUSH-TO-START button firmly. The dryer will start, the igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite.

All Models

After the dryer has operated for approximately five minutes, observe burner flame. Adjust the air shutter to obtain a soft, uniform blue flame. (A lazy, yellow tipped flame indicates lack of air. A harsh, roaring, very blue flame indicates too much air.) Adjust the air shutter as follows:

1.Loosen the air shutter lockscrew.

2.Turn the air shutter to the left to get a luminous yellow tipped flame, then turn it back slowly to the right to obtain a steady soft blue flame.

Nonmetered Models

Set FABRIC SELECTOR switch at NORMAL and turn timer knob to 50. Close the loading door and press the PUSH-TO-START button. IN USE light will come on indicating start of cycle, igniter will glow red and main burner will ignite.

IMPORTANT: If all air is not purged out of the gas line, the gas igniter may go off before the gas is ignited. If this happens, after approximately two minutes the igniter will again attempt gas ignition.

3.After the air shutter is adjusted for proper flame, tighten the air shutter lockscrew securely.

4.Reinstall the lower front panel.

WARNING

For personal safety, lower front panel must be in place during normal operation.
