1. Remove the shipping cap from gas pipe at the rear of
the dryer.
Conversion to LP Gas: DO NOT connect the dryer to
LP gas service without converting the gas valve. An LP

by a qualified gas technician.
a. Connect a 1/2″(1.27 cm) I.D. semi-rigid
or approved pipe from gas supply line to
the 3/8″(0.96 cm) pipe located on the back of the
dryer. Use a 1/2″to 3/8″(1.27 cm to 0.96 cm)
reducer for a connection. Apply an approved thread
sealer that is resistant to the corrosive action of
liquefied gases on all pipe connections.
b. Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line.
c. Test all connections by brushing on a soapy water
solution.

OPEN FLAME.

of the legs until the dryer is resting solidly on all four
legs. Place a level on top of the dryer. THE DRYER
MUST BE LEVEL AND RESTING SOLIDLY ON
ALL FOUR LEGS.

CAUTION: Before operating the dryer,
make sure the dryer area is clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors. Also see that nothing (such as boxes,
clothing, etc.) obstructs the flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
6. Run the dryer through a cycle check for proper
operation.
NOTE: On gas dryers, before the burner will light, it is
necessary for the gas line to be bled of air. If the burner
does not light within 45 seconds the first time the dryer is
turned on, the safety switch will shut the burner off. If this
happens, turn the timer to OFF and wait 5 minutes before
making another attempt to light.
7. If your dryer does not operate, please review the
Troubleshooting Tipssection in this manual before
calling for service.
8. Place these instructions in a location near the dryer for
future reference.
