3, Add fuel such as the waste wood and ignite in the stove and let the hot air into the cylinder or pipeline. When the temperature of the wind outlet up to 150 centigrade, you can start to feed material.

4, According to the material moisture requirements, select the most appropriate hot air temperature and air volume of fan and by doing this you can reduces heat loss and improve the drying efficiency.

5, Choose the high dryer thermal efficiency for drying the wet material thoroughly, and thus will not affect the materials luster. At the same time, the material can be dried per time and avoid the increase of the cost.

6, Strengthen the dryer patrol during the drying to avoid the leakage. The leakage during the process may cause the outside air drawn into the cylinder or the hot air carry the material escape the cylinder.

7, For further reduce the exhaust gas dust content, a bag filter or wet dust collector should be installed.

8, The preheat needs a process and the hot blast stove should have a preheating process,too. It is prohibited to suddenly ignite fierce fire, which will cause local overheating and cause damage because the uneven heat expansion.

9, Meet the sudden power failure, you should immediately shut down the furnace to stop the feeding . Then every 15minutes let the cylinder turn a half circle until the cylinder cooling.
