2.1 Unpacking & Setting Up
Unpack the furnace carefully and remove any packing from inside the tube.
Place the furnace in a well ventilated area, away from other sources of heat, on a surface which is
resistant to accidental spillage of hot materials. Do not use the furnace on an inflammable surface.
Ensure that there is free space around the furnace. Do not obstruct any of the vents: they are
needed to keep the controls cool.
Ensure that the furnace is placed in such a way that it can be quickly switched off or disconnected
from the electrical supply - see below.
2.2 Electrical Connections
The furnace requires a single-phase A.C. supply with earth (ground). The supply may be Live to
Neutral non-reversible, Live to Neutral with reversible plug, or Live to Live.
The voltage or range of voltages on which the furnace may be operated is given on the furnace
rating label. Check that the supply voltage is compatible with the voltage on the label.
The supply should be fused at not more than 10 Amps, preferably 2 Amps.
The furnace is fitted with a supply cable which may be wired directly to an isolator which operates
on both conductors, or fitted with a line plug which may be quickly disconnected from the supply.
The supply MUST incorporate an earth (ground).
Connect the supply as follows:
