B. ADJUSTMENTS
7 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION and EVERY 6 MONTHS THEREAFTER
Inspect bolts, nuts, screws (bearing setscrews), nonpermanent gas connections (unions, shutoff valves,
orifices, etc.), electrical terminations, and grounding connections.
Motor and drive belts should be examined. A cracked or seriously frayed belt should be replaced.
Tighten loose belts when necessary and check the alignment.
Complete operational check of controls and valves.
Complete operational check of ALL safety devices (door switches, lint compartment switches, sail switches,
burner, and hi-limit thermostats).
C. LUBRICATION
The motor bearings, idler bearings and under normal or most conditions the basket (tumbler) bearings are permanently
lubricated. It is physically possible to re-lubricate the basket (tumbler) bearings if you choose to do so even
though this practice is not necessary. Use Shell Alvania #2 or its equivalent. The basket (tumbler) bearings used
in the dryer DO NOT have a grease fitting. Provisions are made in the bearing housing for the addition of a
grease fitting which can be obtained elsewhere, or from the manufacturer by ordering kit Part No. 882159, which
includes two (2) fittings.
