A. REASSEMBLY OF DRYER
IMPORTANT: Always keep the basket (tumbler) section of the dryer in an upright position when
moving it.
WARNING: Twisting of the gas line may cause premature failure.
NOTE: On a yearly basis flex gas lines must be inspected for leaks, if any signs of fraying or abrasion
are found, the gas line must be replaced.
The dryer may be shipped one (1) of two (2) ways; as a complete unit fully assembled and ready for hookup or with the
basket (tumbler) section separated from the base. If the dryer is shipped in two (2) pieces, the basket (tumbler) section
will have to be lifted onto the base. Use cables through the eyebolts on top of the basket (tumbler) section, or use a
forklift for the lifting process.
The tilting dryer is made in many loading and unloading options. Please refer to the reassembly instructions on the
following pages for your particular style of dryer.
If a steam dryer is shipped in two (2) pieces, the steam coil may have been removed from the top of the basket (tumbler)
section and shipped with the base. If this is the case, lift the steam coil onto the top of the basket (tumbler) section with
the steam pipe connections facing towards the right side of the dryer and bolt the coil to the top of the dryer with the
1/4” hardware supplied. There are three (3) panels that cover the front, right side, and rear of the steam coil. Fasten
these in proportion also. Reconnect the steam and condensate pipe unions to the coil. These pipes run down to the flex
hoses in the base.
