■ The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a
noncombustible portion of the mobile home structure. Do not
use screws or other fastening devices that extend into the
interior of the vent to secure vent.
Terminate the exhaust vent outside. The exhaust vent must
not terminate beneath the mobile home and must not be
connected to any other duct, vent or chimney.
■ Securely fasten the dryer to the floor at the time of
installation.
To order a Mobile Home Installation Kit, call your local Sears
store or Sears Service Center. Call 1-800-366-PART
(1-800-366-7278). Ask for Part number 346764.
Install Vent System
1. (Optional) Put on safety glasses and gloves.
2. Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior
wall opening around exhaust hood.
3. Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust
hood. Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4 in. (10.2 cm)
clamp.
4. Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible.
See “Determine Vent Length”. Avoid 90º turns. Use duct tape
to seal all joints.
Install Leveling Legs
1. Place 2 of the carton corner posts on the floor behind the
back of the dryer. See illustration.
2. Firmly grasp the body of the dryer (not the top or console
panel).
Gently lay the dryer on the cardboard corners.
3. Examine the leveling legs. Find the diamond marking.
4. Screw the legs into the leg holes by hand. Use a wrench to
finish turning the legs until the diamond marking is no longer
visible.
5. Stand the dryer up. Move it close to its final location. Leave
enough room to connect the exhaust vent.
Level Dryer
Check the levelness of the dryer. Check levelness first
side-to-side, then front-to-back.
If the dryer is not level, prop up the dryer using a wood block.
Use a wrench to adjust the legs up or down and check again for
levelness.
NOTE: It might be necessary to level the dryer again after it is
moved into its final position.
Make Gas Connection
1. Remove the red cap from the gas pipe. Move the dryer to its
final position.
2. Using a wrench to tighten, connect the gas supply to the
dryer. Use pipe joint compound on all non-flared male
threads. If flexible metal tubing is used, be sure there are
no kinks.
NOTE: For L.P. gas connections, you must use pipe joint
compound resistant to the action of L.P. gas. Do not use
TEFLON
®
tape.
A combination of pipe fittings must be used to connect the
dryer to the existing gas line. Shown following is a
recommended connection. Your connection may be different,
according to the supply line type, size, and location.
1.
³⁄₈
in. flexible gas connector
2.
³⁄₈
in. dryer pipe
3.
³⁄₈
in. to
³⁄₈
in. pipe elbow
4.
³⁄₈
