3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Adjusting the Width

The Pegasus V 190 is designed to be extendable, allowing you to adjust its width to fit various bathtub sizes and to increase drying capacity. To extend the dryer, gently pull the two main sections apart. The internal mechanism will slide, extending the drying rods. Ensure the triple lock mechanism engages securely once the desired width is achieved to maintain stability.

3.2 Positioning and Use

Once extended, place the dryer over the bathtub with its feet resting firmly on the bathtub edges. The two wings of the dryer can be adjusted to 16 different positions. This flexibility allows you to optimize the drying space and ensure the dryer is stable on your specific bathtub. The dryer offers a total drying length of up to 19 meters (approximately 20.78 yards) when fully extended, suitable for multiple laundry items.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning

To clean the dryer, wipe the drying bars and frame with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the powder coating and rust-resistant finish.

4.2 Storage

After each use, ensure the dryer is completely dry before folding it. Fold the dryer compactly for space-saving storage. Store it in a dry environment to prevent moisture buildup and maintain its condition.

5. Troubleshooting

  • Instability: If the dryer feels unstable during use, ensure that the triple lock mechanism is fully engaged when the dryer is extended. Verify that all four feet are resting securely and evenly on a flat, stable part of the bathtub edge.
  • Difficulty Extending/Folding: If you encounter resistance when extending or folding the dryer, check for any obstructions in the sliding mechanism. Apply gentle, even pressure when adjusting the dryer's configuration.
