Location and Assembly
4.1
Your brooder/ICU will give best results in a room free from wide temperature variations and with
generous ventilation – particularly if several incubators / brooders are running at the same time. Ensure
that the room temperature cannot drop on a cold night. Ideally thermostatically control the room at
between 68 and 77°F (20 and 25°C). Never allow the room temperature to drop below 59°F (15°C) and
ensure that the brooder/ICU cannot be exposed to direct sunlight.
4.2
Assemble the cabinet using the tools and fasteners provided. Follow the diagrams. Do not over-tighten
fasteners.
4.3
The door is hinged at the left as supplied but may be reversed to provide better access if required. Fit the
top hinge socket to the cabinet using the M5 x 16mm countersunk screws, M5 flat washers and M5 dome
nuts.
4.4
Place the door in the lower hinge and close the latch. Lower the top cabinet down onto the other parts.
4.5
Fit the M4 x 30mm cap-headed screws, star washers and nuts into each set of holes around the edge of
the cabinet. Tighten enough to prevent them spinning. This creates an air tight seal around the cabinet.
