AUTOMATIC DRYER
COMMERCIAL APPLICATION
GENERAL ELECTRIC DRYERS
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF GOOD PRACTICE
(COIN-OPERATED MODELS ONLY)
In fulfilling the specific needs of different commercial installations, the purchaser of this
General Electric automatic dryer may wish to locate the coin box and controls in any of
a number of locations. The responsibility for the proper performance of this work lies
solely with the purchaser. It should be done by properly trained and qualified personnel,
and in accordance with local code requirements.
In addition, General Electric Company assumes no responsibility or liability whatsoever to
the purchaser for any patent infringement expenses, either in the form of damages or legal
costs, where the alleged infringement is based on a patent claim including one or more
components added by the purchaser (i.e., not supplied by General Electric Company with
the purchased dryer).
Set forth below are some general principles which should be followed by persons installing
the coin box and controls in the desired location. This listing is not all-inclusive, and is
only intended to serve as a general guide. These principles are intended to supplement,
not modify, the Installation Instructions which accompany the automatic dryer.
1. Any component added to the automatic dryer, either electrically or mechanically,
should be properly grounded.
2. All current-carrying metal parts should be isolated from possible contact by the user.
3. All wiring should be properly protected from sharp edges, burrs, moving parts and other
agencies which might cause abrasion of the insulation on the conductors.
4. All electrical connections should be mechanically secure, and should provide adequate
and reliable electrical contact under conditions, such as vibration, to which they may be
subjected.
5. All electrical components, wires and terminals should be of proper electrical rating for
the specific application.
6. All insulating materials should remain effective under the specific conditions to which
they will be exposed (e.g., humidity, temperature, etc.).
7. The installation should not be incompatible with the electrical circuit within the
automatic dryer nor in any manner interfere with either the safety devices or the
sequence of operations of the cycle which are engineered into the appliance.
8. Uninsulated current-carrying metal parts should have adequate and ensured permanence
of spacing from other parts.
