A WARNING
ir
Electrical Shock Hazard
Turn power supply off before
connecting wires.
Use 10 gauge solid copper wire.
Electrically ground dryer.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or electrical
shock.
The dryer can be connected directly
to fused disconnect or circuit breaker
box with four-wire flexible armored or
non-metallic sheathed copper cable
(with grounding wire). All current-carrying
wires must be insulated. The grounding
wire may be bare.
A conduit connector must be installed
at junction box. Allow four feet of slack
in the line so dryer can be moved if
ser/icing is ever necessary.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to
a grounded metal, permanent wiring

conductor must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or
lead on the appliance.
STEEP 1. Turn power supply off.
STEEP la. Strip 5 inches of outer
coviering from end of cable. Leave
bare grounding wire at 5 inches.
STEP 1 b. Cut 1 Vz inches from
3 remaining insulated wires. Strip

of each wire into a “U” shaped hook.
STEP 2. Remove hold-down screw
and terminal block cover.
STEP 3. Attach a ^4-inch, U.L.-listed,
strain relief to the hole below terminal
block opening. Strain relief should have
