If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used
The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow
directed downward.
305 mm minimum
(12")*
* Minimum clearance above
any accumulation of snow,
ice, or debris such as leaves
If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than
through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least
610 mm (2 ft) above surface of roof.
The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 13 mm (1⁄2")
larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.
Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.
610 mm minimum

Multiple Dryer Venting
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The
main vent should be sized to remove 5,663 L/min (200 CFM)
of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design
may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.
The room where the dryers are located should have make-up
air equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.
Back-draft dampers are available from your distributor and
should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted
air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance
within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in
the direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite
side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from
interfering with the other vents.
The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should
be no more than 30°.
Air ow
Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes
create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating
units, can damage dryers and items being dried.
A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for
periodic cleaning of the vent system.
LEVELING FEET
1. Feet have already been installed on this unit.
NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving
to avoid damaging floor covering.
Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation
location.
Take tape off front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove the
literature and parts packages. Wipe drum interior with damp
cloth to remove any dust.
To protect the floor, use a large piece of cardboard from the
dryer carton. Stand dryer up on the cardboard. Slide the dryer
until it is close to its final location. Leave enough room for
electrical connection and to connect the exhaust vent.
Fit a covered foot boot over each leg foot.
