These are approximate starting points.

*Set unload meter roll high speed setting to 999. If unload equipment cannot adequately keep up, lower the speed setting and add time to the unload timer setting to completely unload the batch. In full heat mode, the time added to the unload timer will need to be subtracted from the dry timer. If fan is on AUTO and does not run during unload, set cool timer to 25 minutes.

New unload time calculation = present unload time ÷ new dial setting 1000

Example: 13.75 = 11 ÷ 800 1000

Starting the Dryer

This start-up procedure is for a cold start on wet grain for continuous flow operation.

1.Turn on the LP gas tank and any other manual gas valve at this time. Set the MAXON or FAST ACTION HAND VALVE, if so equipped, on the incoming fuel line to the ON position.

2.Make sure the MOISTURE CONTROL switch is in the OFF position.

3.Turn the FAN switch to the ON position.

4.Adjust the AIR PRESSURE SWITCH if necessary.

5.Turn the HEATER switch to the ON position. The heater will purge for about 10 seconds then ignite. If flame is detected the dryer will run, if not, a “loss of flame” error will occur. If this happens, check gas supply, and all valves in the fuel line to make sure they are ON and attempt again.
