Lubrication Instructions

Every Kenmore automatic dryer is thoroughly lubricated at the time of assembly with lubricants designed to last the normal life of the product. Under normal operating conditions further lubrication should not be required.

In those instances where dryer operating time accumu- lates rapidly, noise level may be reduced and bearing life extended by proper lubrication. If repairs are performed on the machine, then complete lubrication of the repaired assemblies is desirable.

Effective, long-lasting lubrication of a dryer requires lubricants designed for the particular application. The following chart lists the recommended lubricant. This lubricant is available from any Sears Parts Department.
