Selling our Adelco dryer to make room for a new one which will be here in a week or so.  The dryer is currently not running - blowing fuses on startup and I'm not sure where the issue is.  We've had other issues in the past as well which may be isolated to our shop, but I'm not certain of that.  These past issues can be read about in the following thread: http://www.theshirtboard.com/index.php/topic,18282

In a nutshell, we were never able to get it running the way we wanted to and since there isn't a widespread service/support system in place for this brand, are now ready to move on.  The dryer is being sold AS-IS and is priced accordingly.  I have all the manuals and electrical schematics and can pass those along.  Both belts are in good condition, and the unit was maintained well. We ran the dryer using propane but Adelco has told me the unit contains a natural gas burner. 

History: The dryer was purchased two years ago from a US company who had imported the dryer from their China location and had planned to use it at their Miami location.  They never got the operation up and running and we purchased it in almost new condition still crated from the shipment.

Specs are as follows:

Adelco Jet-Force J150S Gas Dryer
Dual 30" Split Belt
13' Heat (10' Chamber + 3' Extension), 5' Infeed, 5' Outfeed
220V 3PH, 13 AMPS/PH

Adelco (UK) has been spotty at best when it comes to answering questions and responding to emails.  Hirsch, their distributor in the USA has been much more helpful and from our phone conversations, their service department seems to know these units well.  Parts can be ordered through Hirsch, and in my experience they keep great stock. 

Asking price is 10k.  Location is Fort Lauderdale, FL. Free local pickup, or you pay for crating/shipping.  The photo attached is from the install, and I'll have some current photos on Monday. 

Will be listed on all the usual sites over the next few days.  Feel free to contact me at: brett(at)squeegeescience.com with any questions and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Price drop to 8k.  Need the space for the new dryer and really don't want to have to put this one in storage. 

I also updated the specs in that the dryer has 13' heat and not 10' as originally listed.
