No, it's just not the done thing to just tie them together.
Yes, it'll work
No, no damage will be done - the drier will look after itself even if they were to fight
But it's just not ethical to go tying output ports together.

There's more than enough power on just one on its own of them to drive your SSR

I only toggled both on them in the software ... well...   because I could...

Hello Andy,

Sorted  now, thanks. The flying connectors from the back of the serial
card are embossed S4, S5, S6 and S7. But these don't match the Windows
port  numbering.  The  lead marked S3 was actually operated by Windows
port  S4.....  So  you  were  right,  I was looking at the wrong port.
Windows Port S7 which runs the Lady Heather GPS stuf is actually S5 on
the  card.  maybe  they  can be aligned, but now i see what's happeing
it's no big deal.

I am am correct in tying pins 4 and 7 together on the serial port plug
to   share   the  load  of the SSR input? It is working now like that,
so hopefully that's why you made both high or low together? Many
thanks again!
