SECTION I

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

A. RECEIVING and HANDLING

The dryer is shipped in a protective stretch wrap cover with protective cardboard corners and top cover (or

optional box) as a means of preventing damage in transit. Upon delivery, the dryer and packaging, and wooden

skid should be visually inspected for shipping damage. If any damage whatsoever is noticed, inspect further

before delivering carrier leaves.

Dryers damaged in shipment.

1. ALL dryers should be inspected upon receipt and before they are signed for.

2. If there is suspected damage or actual damage, the trucker's receipt should be so noted.

3. If the dryer is damaged beyond repair, it should be refused. Those dryers which were not damaged in a

damaged shipment should be accepted, but the number received and the number refused must be noted on

the receipt.

4. If you determine that the dryer was damaged after the trucker has left your location, you should call the

delivering carrier's freight terminal immediately and file a claim. The freight company considers this

concealed damage. This type of freight claim is very difficult to get paid and becomes extremely difficult

when more than a day or two passes after the freight was delivered. It is your responsibility to file freight

claims. Dryer or parts damaged in transit cannot be claimed under warranty.

5. Freight claims are the responsibility of the consignee, and ALL claims must be filed at the receiving end.

ADC assumes no responsibility for freight claims or damages.

6. If you need assistance in handling the situation, please contact theADC Traffic Manager at (508) 678-9000.

IMPORTANT:The tumbler section of the dryer must be transported and handled in an upright

position at all times.

B. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of

fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

WARNING:The dryer must never be operated with any of the back guards, outer tops, or

service panels removed. PERSONAL INJURY or FIRE COULD RESULT.

1. DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.

2. Dryers must be exhausted to the outdoors.

3. Although ADC produces a very versatile machine, there are some articles that, due to fabric composition or

cleaning method, should not be dried in it.

WARNING:Dry only water-washed fabrics. DO NOT dry articles spotted or washed in dry cleaning

solvents, a combustible detergent or “all purpose” cleaner.

EXPLOSION COULD RESULT.

WARNING:DO NOT dry rags or articles coated or contaminated with gasoline, kerosene, oil, paint

or wax.

EXPLOSION COULD RESULT.

WARNING:DO NOT dry mop heads. Contamination by wax or flammable solvents will create a fire

hazard.

WARNING:DO NOT use heat for drying articles that contain plastic, foam, sponge rubber or similarly

textured rubber materials. Drying in a heated basket (tumbler) may damage plastics or

rubber and also may be a fire hazard.

4. A program should be established for the inspection and cleaning of lint in the burner area, exhaust duct

work, and inside the dryer. The frequency if inspection and cleaning can best be determined from experience

at each location.

WARNING:The collection of lint in the burner area and exhaust duct work can create a potential fire

hazard.

5. For personal safety, the dryer must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and/or the

NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the CANADIAN

ELECTRICAL CODES PARTS 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION.

NOTE:Failure to do so will VOID THE WARRANTY.

6. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should the dryer door switches, lint drawer switches, heat safety

circuit, or tilt switches ever be disable.

WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY or FIRE COULD RESULT.

7. This dryer is not to be used in the presence of dry cleaning solvents or fumes.

8. Remove articles from the dryer as soon as the dryer cycle has been completed.

WARNING:Articles left in the dryer after the drying and cooling cycles have been completed can

create a fire hazard.

9. READ and FOLLOWALLCAUTIONandDIRECTIONLABELSATTACHED TOTHEDRYER.

WARNING: YOU MUST DISCONNECT and LOCKOUT THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY and

THE STEAM SUPPLY BEFORE ANY COVERS or GUARDS ARE REMOVED

FROM THE MACHINE TO ALLOW ACCESS FOR CLEANING,

ADJUSTING, INSTALLATION OR TESTING OF ANY EQUIPMENT per

OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) STANDARDS.
