INSTALLATION (continued)

Alternate Method for Installation of Wall Hooks

STEP 1
If wall studs are not correctly spaced or centered behind upper unit, it
may be necessary to attach a horizontal 2" x 4" board to the existing
wall.

STEP 2
Attach wall hooks in approximate position of two chains of upper unit so
each chain pulls straight back to wall.

NOTE: If wall is concrete or block, drill holes and use appropriate wall
anchors. The final construction must withstand a pull of 200 lbs.

• Remove the cover near the power cord entry hole.
• Install 3/4" UL recognized strain relief to power cord entry hole. Bring power cord through strain relief.
• Connect two HOT lines to outer screws (L1 & L2) of terminal block.
• Connect NEUTRAL (white) line to center screw (N) of terminal block.
• Tighten all terminal block screws firmly.
• Properly secure power supply cable to strain relief.
• Reinstall the cover.

Grounding:
• If local codes permit, be sure ground strap is

connected to neutral (centre terminal of block and
to ground screw on rear frame).

• If local codes do not permit frame of dryer to be

grounded to neutral, remove and discard ground
strap. The frame must be grounded by attaching a
ground wire (not supplied) to the green grounding
screw on rear of dryer and to a grounded metal
cold water pipe or other established ground.

CONNECTING DRYER USING 3-WIRE CONNECTION
