Gas connection

1.Remove the shipping cap from gas pipe at the rear of the dryer.

DO NOT connect the dryer to L.P. gas service without converting the gas valve. An L.P. conversion kit must be installed by a qualified gas technician.

2.Connect a 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) I.D. semi-rigid or approved pipe from gas supply line to the 3/8 inch (0.96 cm) pipe located on the back of the dryer. Use a 1/2 inch to 3/8 inch (1.27 cm to 0.96 cm) reducer for the connection. Apply an approved thread sealer that is resistant to the corrosive action of liquefied gases on all pipe connections.

All connections must be wrench-tightened

The supply line must be equipped with an ap- proved manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the dryer and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to the gas shutoff valve.

3.Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line to allow gas to flow through the pipe. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line.

1.Turn off power supply to outlet.

2.Remove the screw securing the terminal block access cover in the upper corner on the back of the dryer.

3.Install a UL-approved strain relief according to the power cord/ strain relief manufacturer’s instructions in the power cord entry hole below the access panel. At this time, the strain relief should be loosely in place.

4.Thread an UNPLUGGED, UL-approved, 30 amp. power cord, NEMA 10-30 type SRDT, through the strain relief.

5.Attach the power cord neutral (center wire) conductor to the SILVER colored center terminal on the terminal block. Tighten the screw securely.

6.Attach the remaining two power cord outer conductors to the outer, BRASS colored terminals on the terminal block. Tighten both screws securely.

- ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD - Do not make a sharp bend or crimp wiring/conductor at connections.
