Position and Level the TumblerFor further assistance, refer to the Section on Location Requirements.

The tumbler may be moved with or without the skid. To remove the skid, unscrew the four shipping bolts, and discard them.

To fit a 170 pound tumbler (with shipping skid) through an 8 foot high door, you must remove the front access panel. The upper 3 inches of the stove must also be removed on 170 pound gas tumblers. Removing the entire gas or steam heater assembly and the shipping skid, will reduce the height of the 120 pound tumbler to 70 inches (1778 mm), and the 170 pound tumbler to 75 inches (1905 mm).

Level the tumbler to within 1/8 inch (3 mm) from front-to-rear (level on cylinder rib), and side-to-side (level on top panel). Shim under corners to level and stabilize unit. Tumbler must not rock.

Before Placing Tumbler into Service

1.Remove or open all panels and check accessible bolts, nuts, screws, terminals and fittings for tightness.

2.Check V-belt tension and adjust if necessary. Refer to appropriate paragraphs in Adjustments Section.

3.Replace all panels and guards.4.Turn on electrical supply to tumbler.5.Open supply valve for gas or steam.

6.After performing the previous checks, start the tumbler by pressing START (hold for approximately 3 seconds). Release the start button and open the loading door. The cylinder should stop rotating within 7 seconds after the door is opened a maximum of 2 inches

(50.8 mm) plus or minus 1/4 inch (6.35 mm). If it does not, adjust the loading door interlock. Refer to the appropriate paragraph in Adjustments Section.

Installation

7.Gas tumblers: Start the tumbler and check the burner flame. Adjust the gas inlet shutter as required. Refer to the appropriate paragraph in Adjustments Section.

IMPORTANT: The Electronic Ignition system will attempt to light the gas by sparking for the “trial for ignition” period. If gas does ignite within this period, the ignition control will go into a safety lockout and the valve will no longer open until the control is reset. Refer to Table 1. It may be necessary to restart several times to bleed air out of gas lines. To reset, open and close loading door, then start.
