Installation Instructions

The installation of dryer drum glides typically involves disassembling the dryer cabinet to access the drum support system. While specific steps may vary by model, the general procedure includes:

1. Disconnect Power: Ensure the dryer is unplugged from the electrical outlet or the circuit breaker is turned off.
2. Access the Drum: Depending on your dryer model, this may involve removing the top panel, front panel, or rear panel. Consult your dryer's service manual for precise disassembly instructions.
3. Locate Old Glides: Identify the worn or damaged drum glides, typically located on the front bulkhead of the dryer, supporting the drum.
4. Remove Old Glides: Carefully pry off the old glides using a putty knife or screwdriver. Clean the area thoroughly to remove any adhesive residue or debris.
5. Apply New Glides: Apply the high-temp adhesive (included in the kit) to the designated areas on the new drum glides. Ensure even coverage.

6. Install New Glides: Press the new glides firmly into place. Allow the adhesive to cure according to the instructions on the adhesive tube before reassembling the dryer.
7. Reassemble Dryer: Carefully reassemble the dryer, ensuring all panels and components are securely fastened.
8. Test Appliance: Plug the dryer back in and run a short cycle to ensure proper operation and that the drum rotates smoothly without unusual noises.

Estimated Installation Time: Approximately 30 minutes, depending on experience and dryer model.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after installing the drum glide kit, consider the following:

• Squeaking or Grinding Noises: This may indicate improper installation of the glides, insufficient adhesive, or other worn components (e.g., drum rollers, idler pulley). Re-check the glide placement and ensure all parts are correctly seated.
• Drum Not Rotating Smoothly: Verify that the drum glides are not binding and that the drum is properly aligned. Check for any obstructions within the dryer drum area.
• Excessive Vibration: Ensure all dryer panels are securely reattached and that the dryer itself is level.

If problems persist, it is recommended to consult a qualified appliance technician or refer to your dryer's specific service manual.
