The first firing is carried out empty of ware but
including kiln furniture.
Our tip:
Load the kiln furniture supplied with the kiln into
the kiln for the first firing
To open the kiln release the lock and lift up the lid until
it comes to rest. Close the lid with the lock on the body.
Screw on the arm for the controller to the left of the lid
frame. Mount the controller to the bracket provided and
connect the controller plug to the multipin socket on the
bottom of the power box at the rear of the kiln, bringing
down the fixing catch.
Insert the electric power plug into a correctly installed
and checked socket, or wire the kiln cable directly into
an isolator switch. Turn on the power switch of the
controller and start a firing program: first firing program
5 (see controller manual for how to call up a program
Example first firing program:
60-100°C/h until 600°C => afterwards
Skip (fast heating) until 1200°C,
60 min. dwell
During all programs the noise of the protectors in the
power box is clearly audible.
Watch out !
Under no circumstances open the hot kiln when
the firing chamber temperature > 50°C.
Always switch off the controller at the power switch, if
the kiln is not in use. For a longer period out of use the
electric power plug should be disconnected at the mains
isolator switch.
