WHEN USING THE EQUIPMENT
The drying unit may only be used for drying wood in a
chamber intended for this purpose.
Risk of fire.
For maximum electrical safety and fire safety, a
residual current circuit breaker should be used.
Ensure that the air in the drying cabinet can
circulate and that the wood is not closer to the
drying unit than 0.3 m.
The drying chamber should be set up such that
the damage that can occur in the event of a fire is
minimized. We recommend that you contact your
local fire authority for advice if you are unsure.
Risk of water damage.
Condensed water from the drying process can
leak out of the drying chamber. Place the drying
chamber on a surface that can withstand water.
Set up the drying chamber in a place that can
withstand moist air.
During use:
• Never set the thermostat at a higher temperature than
50 degrees C.
• Place the wood drying kiln such that the start / stop
button is not blocked.
• Never step on the power cable of the drying unit. The
cable should be protected against accidental damage.
• The WDU wood drying unit must not be modified or
rebuilt.
• The machine’s warning labels are there for your own
and others’ safety. Damaged or illegible labels must be
replaced.
In this user manual
”cut the power”
means
that the cable that supplies power to the drying
unit should be disconnected from the mains
and placed such that no unqualified person
can reconnect it. Wait until the drying unit has
completely cooled.
Cut the power:
• before touching the part of the drying unit that is on
the inside of the drying chamber.
• before opening any of the inspection hatches on the
drying unit.
• before cleaning or other maintenance.

Risk of burn injury.
The drying unit has hot heating elements. It
must not be started until it is correctly installed
in a drying chamber, and the drying chamber is
closed. Never put your hands inside the drying
unit if the power cord is not disconnected.

TO THE MAINS
Check that:
• no loose objects are left inside the drying unit.
