Follow the dryer's preparation requirements and the garment's allowed water-removal method. Saturated laundry can present a different load from properly prepared washed clothing.
Understanding this situation
The dryer is not a substitute for resolving a washer that has stopped spinning or draining. Excess retained water can affect performance, and the headline capacity does not describe an arbitrary wet weight.
A useful next step
Prepare suitable laundry as directed before drying. If the washing machine has a fault, address that separately. Do not keep extending drying time to compensate for an unresolved water-removal problem, or exceed the fabric's permitted treatment.
