Gas dryers are equipped with a burner orifice for operation on NATURAL gas. If the dryer
is to be operated on LP (liquid propane) gas, it must be converted for safe and proper
performance and must be converted by a qualified service technician. Conversion kits
from NATURAL to LP, or LP to NATURAL are available through your local Maytag
dealer (see Accessories). If other conversions are required, check with the local gas utility
for specific information concerning conversion requirements.
a 1/2" gas supply line is recommended and must be reduced to connect to the 3/8" gas line
on the dryer.
Additionally, a 1/8" N.P,T. (National Pipe Thread) plugged tapping, accessible for test
gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the
dryer.
HIGH PRESSURE TESTING
The dryer and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of i/2 psig
(3.45kPa).
LOW PRESSURE TESTING
The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pres-
sures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
DO NOT re-use old flexible metal gas line. Flexible gas line must be design certified by
American Gas Association (CGA in Canada). NOTE: Any pipe joint compound used must
be resistant to the action of any liquified petroleum gas.
NOTE: As a courtesy, most local gas utilities will inspect a gas appliance installation.
GAS IGNITION
This dryer uses an automatic ignition system to ignite the burner. There is no constant
burning pilot.
