that the wire insulation on the power supply cord is inside
the strain relief. The strain relief should have a tight fit with
the dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position. Do not
further tighten strain relief screws at this point.

relief threads.
Put direct wire cable through the strain relief. The strain
relief should have a tight fit with the dryer cabinet and be
in a horizontal position. Tighten strain relief screw against
