INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS – ELECTRIC DRYER

Install Coin Slide and Coin Box

The console houses the factory-installed accumulator timer with actuating arm and button.

The factory-installed timer is set to provide 45 minutes (4 pins) of drying time when activated by the coin slide. Timer cams for 30-minute (6 pins) and 60-minute (3 pins) drying times are included in the parts bag.

The coin slide mechanism, control panel lock and key, and coin box lock and key are not included and are available from usual industry sources.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install dryer. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving to avoid damaging floor covering.

1.Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation location.

2.Take tape off front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove the literature and parts packages. Wipe the interior of the drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

3.Take two of the cardboard corners from the carton and place them on the floor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp the body of the dryer and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard corners.

4.With one of the legs in hand, check the ridges for a diamond marking. That's how far the leg is supposed to go into the hole.

5.Start to screw the leveling legs into the holes by hand. (Use a small amount of liquid detergent to lubricate the screw threads so it is easier to turn the legs.) Use a 1-inch wrench or socket wrench to finish turning the legs until you reach the diamond mark.

Now stand the dryer up.

6.Remove the service door of the meter case by lifting it up at the back. Install the money-accepting device. (Refer to manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.)

7.Replace the meter case service door. Put the coin vault with lock and key in the meter case opening.

8.Remove cardboard or hardboard from under dryer.
