Operating Instructions
Installing the dryer.
Exhaust Direction
All dryers shipped from the factory are set up for
rear exhausting. However, on
ELECTRIC DRYERS
,
exhausting can be on the right or left side of the
cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. On
GAS DRYERS
,
exhausting can be on the right side of the cabinet or
the bottom of the dryer. Directional exhausting can
be accomplished by installing Exhaust Kit, Pub. No.
14-A018, available through your parts distributor.
Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.
Gas Supply Requirements
Replace brass connecting pipe that is not plastic-
coated. Stainless steel or plastic-coated brass
MUST
be used.
WARNING:
Never reuse old flexible connectors.
The use of old flexible connectors can cause gas
leaks and personal injury. Always use
NEW
flexible
connectors when installing a gas appliance.
Installation
MUST
conform with local codes, or in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition).
The gas supply line should be of 1/2″ (1.27 cm)
pipe.
If codes allow, flexible metal tubing may be used
to connect your dryer to the gas supply line. The
tubing
MUST
be constructed of stainless steel or
plastic-coated brass.
The gas supply line
MUST
have an individual
shutoff valve.
A 1/8″ (0.32 cm) NPT plugged tapping,
accessible for test gauge connection,
MUST
be
installed immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the dryer.
The dryer
MUST
be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
The dryer
MUST
be isolated from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to
or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).

Exhaust Ducting Length
The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned
a minimum of every year with normal usage. The
more the dryer is used, the more often you should
check the exhaust system and vent hood for proper
operation.
•
DO NOT
assemble the duct work with fasteners that
extend into the duct. They will serve as collection
points for lint.
• Insulation—Ductwork which runs through an
unheated area or is near an air conditioning duct
should be insulated to reduce condensation and
lint build-up.
