General Electric Divider Or Deflector

This baffle side discharge assembly directs dryer exhaust airflow to the side discharge port, helping maintain proper ventilation and reduce unusual noise from a damaged or misaligned baffle. Fits as a direct replacement for the original assembly. What it does

• Guides dryer exhaust air from the drum to the side discharge opening to maintain airflow.
• Helps prevent rubbing or contact between the drum and housing that can cause squeaks or scraping.
• Reduces the chance of airflow restriction that can extend drying times.
• Restores correct alignment of the exhaust path after damage or wear.

• One baffle side discharge assembly, as shown.

• Disconnect power before starting; for gas dryers, turn off the gas supply and disconnect per local codes.
• Installation typically requires removing access panels and the dryer drum or housing; have basic hand tools ready.
• Handle edges carefully and avoid forcing the part; proper alignment is needed for quiet operation and correct airflow.
