The T1520 is a vented Novotronic dryer, and on a machine of this age the thermal cut-out is doing more work than the designers intended – not because the dryer has degraded but because twenty-year-old vent ducting is rarely as clear as it was on day one. Before anything inside the cabinet is condemned on this model, the duct run needs checking end to end. Restricted airflow is both the most common problem and the one with a genuine fire risk attached.
