A. UNPACKING/SETTING UP
Remove protective shipping material (i.e., plastic wrap, and/or optional shipping box) from dryer.
NOTE: For models with locks, the lock used is a dummy lock and no key is supplied or needed. The
lock can be turned with any key, a screwdriver, a small coin, and or any small sharp object.
IMPORTANT: Dryer must be transported and handled in an upright position at all times.
The dryer can be moved to its final location while still attached to the skid or with the skid
removed. To unskid the dryer, locate and remove the four (4) bolts securing the base of the dryer to the wooden
skid. Two (2) are at the rear base (remove the back panel for access), and two (2) are located in the bottom of
the lint chamber. To remove the two (2) bolts located in the lint chamber area, remove the lint door.
With the skid removed, to make it easier to slide the dryer into its final position, slightly lower ALL four (4)
leveling legs, so that the dryer will slide on the legs instead of the base frame.
To increase bearing life and improve efficiency, the dryer should be tilted slightly to the rear.
The basket (tumbler) is supported during shipping by a wooden block. REMOVE THIS BLOCK BEFORE
STARTING THE DRYER.
IMPORTANT: For microprocessor (computer) models, this wooden block must be removed before
connecting power to the dryer or irreparable damage to the basket (tumbler) will
result.
The lint coops of ALL SUPER AD-30 dryers are supported during shipping by a bracket. REMOVE THIS
BRACKET BEFORE STARTING THE DRYER.
