This wing nut is a hand-tightening fastener used to secure small appliance components for easy tool-free adjustment or removal. It offers a simple replacement when the original nut is lost, stripped, or broken. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, or components that require occasional removal or adjustment
• Allows tool-free tightening and loosening with built-in wings for finger grip
• Restores proper fit where a missing or damaged nut causes rattling, looseness, or instability
• Designed for repeated hand-operation without specialized tools

• Disconnect power to the appliance before performing any work to avoid shock or injury
• Thread by hand until snug; avoid overtightening to prevent stripping threads or cracking surrounding parts
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged to ensure secure fastening
• Use appropriate size and thread type—do not force a mismatched nut onto the stud

This temperature limiter switch stops heat buildup by opening the circuit when temperature exceeds safe limits. It restores proper thermal protection for the appliance's heating system and helps prevent overheating-related damage. What it does:

• Opens the heating circuit if internal temperature rises above the thermostat's limit to prevent overheating.
• Commonly used as a safety cutoff for dryers, ovens or other appliance heating systems.
• Symptoms of a failing limiter: no heat, intermittent heating, or an appliance that won't start its heating cycle.
• Works with the appliance's control and heating elements to maintain safe operating temperatures.

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing this part to avoid shock or injury.
• Replace with the exact part number to maintain proper temperature protection.
• If the limiter has tripped, inspect heating element, venting and related components for root causes before reassembly.
