GAS CONNECTION FOR
GAS DRYERS
1. Remove the shipping cap from gas pipe at the rear of
the dryer.
Conversion to LP Gas: DO NOT connect the dryer to
LP gas service without converting the gas valve. An LP
conversion kit (Pub. No. 14–A038) MUST be installed
by a qualified gas technician.
a. Connect a 1/2" (1.27 cm) I.D. semi-rigid or approved
pipe from gas supply line to the 3/8" (0.96 cm) pipe
located on the back of the dryer. Use a 1/2" to 3/8"
(1.27 cm to 0.96 cm) reducer for a connection.
Apply an approved thread sealer that is resistant
to the corrosive action of liquefied gases on all
pipe connections.
b. Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line.
c. Test all connections by brushing on a soapy water
solution.
WARNING:
FOR GAS LEAKS WITH AN
OPEN FLAME.
2. Connect the exhaust duct to outside exhaust system.
Use duct tape to seal all joints.
3. With the dryer in its final position, adjust one or more
of the legs until the dryer is resting solidly on all four
legs. Place a level on top of the dryer. THE DRYER
MUST BE LEVEL AND RESTING SOLIDLY ON
ALL FOUR LEGS.
4. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
NOTE: Check to ensure the power is off at circuit
breaker/fuse box before plugging the power cord
into the outlet.
5. Turn on the power at the circuit breaker/fuse box.
Installation Instructions
NEVER TEST
CAUTION:
make sure the dryer area is clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors. Also see that nothing (such as boxes,
clothing, etc.) obstructs the flow of combustion
and ventilation air.
6. Run the dryer through a cycle check for proper
operation.
NOTE: On gas dryers, before the burner will light, it is
necessary for the gas line to be bled of air. If the burner
does not light within 45 seconds the first time the dryer is
turned on, the safety switch will shut the burner off. If this
happens, turn the timer to OFF and wait 5 minutes before
making another attempt to light.
7. If your dryer does not operate, please review the
Troubleshooting Tips section in this manual before
calling for service.
8. Place these instructions in a location near the dryer
for future reference.
REVERSING THE DRYER

screws from the left side of door opening. Place nearby
for future installation. NOTE: You may need a plastic knife
to help pull out the plugs. Be careful not to scratch the paint.
2. Remove the four screws that secure the door hinges to
the dryer front panel. NOTE: Remove 1 screw from each
of the 2 hinges first. Hold the door firmly before removing the

3. Rotate the door 180° and reinstall the door hinges to the
dryer front panel with the 4 screws.
