duct to the blower
housing.
• Tape the elbow
in a 90-degree

and connect it to
portion A. Rotate
the elbow through
the bottom opening.
CAUTION:
Be sure not to pull or
damage the electrical wires inside the dryer
when inserting the duct.
• While still holding down
the pipe and elbow from
the rear opening, screw
the pipes in place with
the previously saved screw.
• Apply duct tape
as shown on the joint
between the dryer internal
duct and the elbow.
NOTE: Make sure the tape
covers the screw hole in
portion A where it connects
to the elbow.

Internal duct joints must be
secured with tape; otherwise, they may separate
and cause a safety hazard.
