as needed. Failure to do so may lead to electrical shock or a
fire hazard.
CLEAN GRILLS: Clean off any accumulated lint or other mate-
rials from the protective grill cover. A buildup will reduce the
airflow and may cause the motor to overheat and become a

detergent and water. Bring back the original shine with a vinyl
cleaner and polish like those used on automobile plastics.
EXTERIOR INSPECTION: Evaluate exterior components and
make sure they are properly installed. Listen to the unit for
abnormal sounds. Repair or replace components as needed.
Periodic Maintenance (as needed)
Make sure unit is unplugged and the blade has stopped. Re-
move four screws to remove each grill cover. This will permit
access to motor and fan blade for cleaning.
CLEAN COMPONENTS: Use compressed air or a vacuum to
remove lint and dust from fan blade, motor and grill covers.
DO NOT WET MOTOR OR WIRING: To prevent damage to
electrical components, do not use a hose or pressure washer
to clean a TurboDryer. If electrical components do become
wet, dry them immediately.
MOTOR BEARINGS: The bearings on all Dri-Eaz TurboDryers
are permanently lubricated. Do not oil.
