B. ADJUSTMENTS

7 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION AND EVERY 6 MONTHS THEREAFTER

Inspect bolts, nuts, screws (bearing setscrews), grounding connections, and nonpermanent gas connections (unions, shutoff valves, and orifices). Motor and drive belts should be examined. Cracked or seriously frayed belts should be replaced. Tighten loose V-belts when necessary. Complete operational check of controls and valves. Complete operational check of ALL safety devices (door switch, lint drawer switch, sail switch, burner, and hi-limit thermostats).

C. LUBRICATION

The motor bearings...and under normal/most conditions the basket (tumbler) and idler bearings are permanently lubricated. It is physically possible to relubricate the basket (tumbler) bearings if you choose to do so even though this practice may not be necessary. Use Shell Alvania #2 or its equivalent. The basket (tumbler) bearings used in the dryer DO NOT have a grease fitting. Provisions are made in the bearing housing for the addition of a grease fitting, which can be obtained elsewhere.
