Plan pipe tting connection

A combination of pipe ttings must be used to connect dryer

to existing gas line. A recommended connection is shown.

Your connection may be different, according to supply line

type, size, and location.

A. 3/8" exible gas connector

B. 3/8" dryer pipe

C. 3/8" to 3/8" pipe elbow

D. 3/8" pipe-to-are adapter tting

Open shut-off valve in supply line; valve is open when handle

is parallel to gas pipe. Then, test all connections by brushing

on an approved noncorrosive leak-detection solution.

Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leaks found.

Connect Vent

Connect vent to exhaust outlet

Move dryer to nal location

Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet

in dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure vent is

clean. Dryer vent must t over dryer exhaust outlet and inside

exhaust hood. Check that vent is secured to exhaust hood

with a 4" (102 mm) clamp.

Move dryer to nal location. Avoid crushing or kinking vent.

After dryer is in place, remove corner posts and cardboard

from under the dryer.

Connect vent to exhaust hood

Vent must t over the exhaust hood. Secure vent to exhaust

hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp. Run vent to dryer location

using straightest path possible. Avoid 90° turns. Use clamps

to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws, or other

fastening devices that extend into interior of vent to secure

vent, because they can catch lint.

Connect gas supply to dryer

Remove red cap from gas pipe. Using a wrench to tighten,

connect gas supply to dryer. Use pipe-joint compound

on threads of all non-ared male ttings. If exible metal

tubing is used, be sure there are no kinks.

NOTE: For LP gas connections, you must use pipe-joint

compound resistant to action of LP gas. Do not use
