POWER START BUTTON

Push the dryer start button, and all

panel will be activated.

FUEL CHECK

Turn the control power switch to on.

The switch will light up. A copyright

message, model number, total run-

ning time in hours and minutes, cur-

rent date and time will appear. At this

point the controller will lock out all

other dryer functions. Once the date

and time appear, press reset and the

dryer will perform its safety circuit

check. If a fault is found, the cause

will be displayed on the LCD. If all

are found safe, the controller will sup-

ply power to the electronic fuel shut-

off valve, if so equipped, and the dry-

ing mode switch will light up, indicat-

ing that the dryer is ready to be started.

If using LP gas, make sure the tank

has plenty of fuel and that the tank

does not have a regulator mounted

to it. If using natural gas, make sure

an adequate supply is available.

If using LP gas, slowly open the

main fuel supply valve at the tank.

If using natural gas, turn on the valve

along the supply line. Then, open the

electronic shut off valve (Maxon

valve), if so equipped, or open the

manual shut off valve on the dryer

to allow fuel flow to the dryer. In-

spect all gas lines and connections

for possible leaks.

Any gas leaks must be fixed
immediately!
