Product Damage

Keep air openings free of dry- cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can damage dryers and loads being dried.

L

A clean-out cover should be located on the main exhaust duct for periodically cleaning the exhaust system.

An exhaust hood should cap the outside end of the main duct to prevent exhausted air from returning to the dryers. If an exhaust hood cannot be used, the outside end of the main duct should have a sweep elbow directed downward. If the main duct travels vertically through the roof rather than through the wall, install 180” sweep elbow on the end of duct at least 2 feet above the highest part of the building. The opening wall or roof shall have a diameter l/2 inch larger than the exhaust duct diameter. The exhaust duct should be centered in the opening.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect both power supply cords before making these changes.

Failure to do so may result in electrical shock or personal injury.

Determine which direction you need to attach the exhaust ducts to the dryers. Both dryers can be exhausted straight out the back or from the right or left side. The lower dryer can also be exhausted through the bottom.

Next, determine the length of exhaust duct you will need to connect the dryers to exhaust hoods or the main exhaust.

To connect exhaust duct straight out the back-

Attach exhaust duct to each dryer duct. Then connect exhaust ducts to exhaust hoods or main exhaust. Use duct tape to seal all joints.

This dryer may be converted to be exhausted out the right or left side or through the bottom. To convert the dryer, one of the following kits MUST be used:

Exhaust Kit No. 279818 (White) Exhaust Kit No. 279819 (Almond)

Follow the instructions in the Kit to avoid operational and personal hazard.
