B. UNPACKING/SETTING UP
Remove protective shipping material (i.e., plastic wrap, and/or optional shipping box) from dryer.
LOCKS/KEYS
Coin Models: The access keys to the control (service) door, and lint door are included inside the
information package shipped in the dryer tumbler (basket) and should be
removed and put in a safe place. The keys should be made accessible because they
will be needed throughout various phases in the installation of the unit.
OPL Models: For models equipped 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, or any small sharp object.
The dryer can be moved to its final location while still attached to the skid or with the skid
removed. To un-skid 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, and for better automatic closure of the main door
the dryer should be tilted slightly to the rear.
