1.Remove the screws securing the terminal block access cover and the strain relief mounting bracket located on the back of the dryer upper corner.

2.Install a U.L. listed strain relief into the power cord entry hole of the mounting bracket. Finger tighten the nut only at this time.

3.Thread a U.L. listed 30 amp. power cord, NEMA 10-30 Type SRDT, through the strain relief.

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

5.Attach the remaining two power cord outer conductors to the outer brass colored terminals on the terminal block. Tighten both screws securely.

Do not make a sharp bend or crimp wiring/ conductor at connections.

6.Reattach the strain relief mounting bracket to the back of the dryer with two screws. Tighten screws securely.

7.Tighten the screws securing the cord restraint firmly against the power cord.

8.Tighten the strain relief nut securely so that the strain relief does not turn.

9.Reinstall the terminal block cover.

1.Remove the screws securing the terminal block access cover and the strain relief mounting bracket located on the back of the dryer upper corner.

2.Install a U.L. listed strain relief in the entry hole of the mounting bracket. Finger tighten the nut only at this time.

3.Remove the ground wire from the green ground screw located

above the terminal block.

5.Attach the green power cord ground wire to the cabinet with the green ground screw.

6.Attach the white (neutral) power cord conductor from the power cord and the neutral ground wire from the dryer harness (removed from the ground screw in step 3) to the silver-colored center terminal on the terminal block. Tighten the screw securely.

7.Attach the red and black power cord conductors to the outer brass colored terminals on the terminal block.

Do not make a sharp bend or crimp wiring/ conductor at the connections.

8.Tighten the screws securing the cord restraint firmly against the power cord.

9.Tighten the strain relief nut securely so the strain relief does

not turn.

10.Reinstall the terminal block access cover.
