Majestic dryer concern/danger - dentmac - 12-27-2014 13:14
Hi had to take the dryer apart again. This time completely as something was jamming between the drums.
There was a LARGE quantity of lint between the drums. It had compressed into "Wadding" and there was enough to nearly fill a cereal box. Possible fire hazard?
These dryers do not have a lint filter.. the air from the heater is pushed through the rubber at the front door into the clothes and exits out a SMALL 2 inch rubber tube at the top back. Air flow is restricted here and the dryer hose having 2 right angles doesn't help.
I'll put it back for now , until I research for a new one.
Should have taken pics.. DUH
PS the culprit was a large screw, no doubt from installation as there is no opening to between the drums .. The lint wadding was thick enough that it pushed the screw into the turning drum.
edit for air flow correction

Long shot but, maybe you need to open a window when you use the dryer.if it vents to the outside
