SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2000 Autoflow
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE OPERATION AND SERVICE
SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Use Caution in the
Operation of this
Equipment
1. Read and understand the operating manual before trying to operate the
dryer.
The design and manufacture of this
dryer is directed toward operator
safety. However, the very nature of
a grain dryer having a gas burner,
high voltage electrical equipment
and high speed rotating parts, does
present a hazard to personnel, which
can not be completely safeguarded
against, without interfering with ef-
ficient operation and reasonable ac-
cess to components.
2. Power supply should be OFF for service of electrical components. Use
CAUTION in checking voltage or other procedures requiring power to
be ON.
3. Check for gas leaks at all gas pipe connections. If any leaks are de-
tected, do not operate the dryer. Shut down and repair before further
operation.
4. Never attempt to operate the dryer by jumping or otherwise bypassing
any safety devices on the unit.
Use extreme caution in working
around high speed fans, gas-fired
heaters, augers and auxiliary con-
veyors, which may start without
warning when the dryer is operat-
ing on automatic control.
5. Set pressure regulator to avoid excessive gas pressure applied to burner
during ignition and when burner is in operation. Do not exceed maxi-
mum recommended drying temperature.
6. Keep the dryer clean. Do not allow fine material to accumulate in the
plenum or drying chamber.
7. Use CAUTION in working around high speed fans, gas burners, augers
and auxiliary conveyors which START AUTOMATICALLY.
KEEP THE DRYER CLEAN
DO NOT ALLOW FINE
MATERIAL TO ACCUMULATE

owner. For a safe and dependable
drying system, follow the recom-
mendations within this manual, and
make it a practice to regularly in-
spect the operation of the unit for
any developing problems or unsafe
conditions.
Proper Use of Product
This product is intended for the use of drying small grains only.
Any other use is a misuse of the product!
This product has sharp edges! These sharp edges may cause serious
injury. To avoid injury handle sharp edges with caution and use proper
protective clothing and equipment at all times.
Take special note of the safety pre-
cautions listed above before at-
tempting to operate the dryer.
Guards are removed for illustrati on purposes only. All guards must be

located in an area of the drying chamber that fills
evenly with the rest of the drying chamber. The
component placement on page 9 shows the
placement of the Drying Chamber Rotary Switches
in relation to the Fill System #1 transport auger/
downspout.
Switches are used by the series 2000 Autoflow to
monitor the location of grain in the Drying Chamber.
The rotary switch with the shortest shaft extension
is the Drying Chamber Overflow Rotary Switch. It
is used as a safety in the event the Chamber High
Level Rotary Switch fails. The rotary switch with
the longest extension is the Drying Chamber Low
Level Rotary Switch. It is used to inform the
computer when the peak has been covered with grain
so the drying process can begin; and, will shut down
if the drying chamber empties unexpectedly. The
third rotary switch is the Drying Chamber High
Level Rotary Switch. It is used to inform the dryer
when the drying chamber is full so loading can stop.

The rotary switches should NOT be located
in a part of the drying chamber that fills unevenly
with the rest of the drying chamber. If the area of
the drying chamber where the rotary switches are
located fills faster that the rest of the drying chamber
the drying chamber will not fill to capacity and
uneven drying will result. If the area of the drying
chamber where the rotary switches are located fills
slower than the rest of the drying chamber an

son inspect the installation to be sure that everything is installed ac-
cording to local codes and ordinances.
Top Dry dryers have internal vapor-
izers, and they are designed to oper-
ate on liquid draw from the supply
tank. Avoid using propane supply
tanks that have been used for vapor
draw for long periods of time. When
using liquid draw systems any mois-
ture that may be present in tanks or
lines may freeze when the system is
used in cold weather. To avoid this
situation, purge the system with
methanol. Do not use tanks which
have previously been used for am-
monia or fertilizer solutions. These
substances are extremely corrosive
and will damage fuel supply and
burner parts. Because the vaporizer
coil may need to be adjusted during
operation flexible hose suitable for
LPs should be used for the final field
connection.
After installation is complete check all connections for leaks with
liquid detergent or comparable. Wear rubber gloves and eye protection.
Avoid contact with liquid propane. DO NOT USE FLAME FOR LEAK
TESTING.

INSTALLATION
2000 Autoflow
Natural Gas (NG)
cording to local codes and ordinances.
This dryer is designed to operate
on natural gas. Natural gas units
have a larger orifice to accommo-
date lower pressures sometimes
found with natural gas and do not
have vaporizer coils like liquid
propane units. A regulated pres-
sure of 10 PSI minimum, 30 PSI
maximum must be provided at the
field connection point on the fan
and heater unit, with gas available
in sufficient volume to maintain
the operating pressure.
After installation is complete check all connections for leaks with
liquid detergent or comparable. Wear rubber gloves and eye protection.
DO NOT USE FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.
See the “Fuel Systems and
Recommendations Chart” for
natural gas to determine the cor-
rect size line to run to the dryer.
Have a qualified gas service per-
son inspect the installation to be
sure everything is installed ac-
NG line field connection.

Power Supply
An adequate power supply and proper wiring are impor-
tant factors for maximum performance and long life of
the dryer. Electrical service must be adequate enough to
prevent low voltage damage to motors and control cir-
cuits (see Electrical Load Information on page 40). In
220V 1 ph and 220V 3 ph systems a separate neutral
wire is required for the 120V heater circuit, and should
be connected to terminal #1 in the master heater. Do
not run in conduit with motor power lines.
boards, and the ignition system. The ground rod must
be in accordance with local requirements.
Proper Installation of Ground Rod
It is not recommended that the rod be driven into dry
ground.
Follow these instructions for proper installation:
1.Dig a hole large enough to hold 1 to 2 gallons of
water.
Transformer and Wiring Voltage Drop
2. Fill hole with water.
3. Insert rod through water and jab it into the ground.
4. Continue jabbing the rod up and down. The
water will work its way down the hole, mak-
ing it possible to work the rod completely into
the ground. This method of installing the
rod gives a good conductive bond with the
surrounding soil.
It is necessary to know the distance from the unit to the
available transformer, and the horsepower of your fan
unit. Advise the service representative of your local power
supplier that an additional load will be placed on the line.
Each fan motor should be wired through a fused or cir-
cuit breaker disconnect switch. Check on KVA rating of
transformers, considering total horsepower load. The
power supply wiring, main switch equipment and trans-
formers must provide adequate motor starting and oper-
ating voltage. Voltage drop during motor starting should
not exceed 14% of normal voltage, and after motor is
running at full speed it should be within 8% of normal
voltage. Check Electrical Load Information for HP rat-
ings and maximum amp loads to properly size wire and
fusing elements. Standard electrical safety practices and
codes should be used. (Refer to National Electrical Code
Standard Handbook by National Fire Protection Asso-
ciation).
5. Connect the bare, copper ground wire to the
rod with the proper ground rod clamp. See
Figure 12.
6. Connect the bare copper ground wire to the fan
control boxes with a grounding lug.
7. Ground wire must
not have any breaks
or splices.
Machine to Earth Grounding
Dig a hole large
enough to hold 1
or 2 gallons of
water. Work the
ground rod into
the earth until it
is completely in
the ground.
It is very important that a Machine To Earth Ground
Rod be installed at the fan. This is true even if there is
a ground at the pole 15 feet away. Place the ground
rod that comes standard, within 8 feet of the dryer
and attach it to the dryer control panel with at least a
#6 solid, bare, copper ground wire and the clamp pro-
vided. The grounding rod located at the power pole
will not provide adequate grounding for the dryer. The
proper grounding will provide additional safety in case
of any short and will ensure long life of all circuit

Autoflow to Drying Chamber Rotary Switches Interconnect
The three (3) 110V AC rotary switches
located in the drying chamber are used to inform
the computer on the location of grain in the
drying chamber. The rotary switch with the
shortest extension is the Drying Chamber
Overflow Rotary Switch. It is used as a safety
in the event the Chamber High Level Rotary
Switch fails. The rotary switch with the longest
extension is the Drying Chamber Low Level
Rotary Switch. It is used to inform the computer
when the peak has been covered with grain so
the drying process can begin; and, will shut the
dryer down if the drying chamber empties
unexpectedlly. The third rotary switch is the
Drying Chamber High Level Rotary Switch. It
is used to inform the dryer when the drying
chamber is full. The Drying Chamber Rotary
Switches us 110V AC to power the motor and
12V DC+ to switch a signal back to the
computer. The 110V AC, 110V N, and the 12V
DC+ wires can be jumped from rotary switch to
rotary switch to lessen the wires needed.
To wire the Drying Chamber Rotary
Switches to the Autoflow Control Box do the
following:
1)
Run six (6) control wires from the
Autoflow Control Box to the Drying
Chamber Rotary Switches.
2)
Connect the wires as shown in figure 23.

fan/heater units remains the same regardless
of the type or presence of a control center. To
wire a slave fan/heater unit to a master fan/
heater unit do the following:
NOTE: A shielded 16 gauge cable is recom-
mended for use on the network connections.
The network connections for this configura-
tion are attached to terminals number 8 and 9
in the master unit and terminals number 3 and
4 in the slave unit. Ground each end of the
shielded cable to the housing. A shielded 16
gauge 2 wire cable can be purchased from GSI.
Part # WR-16 / 2S.
NOTE: Do NOT use solid wire for intercon-
nection.
