6. GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1. Operating instructions Controller
Please read the kiln control instruction manual carefully. The kiln is ready for operation after it has been connected
to the mains supply and the controller.
Typical firing curves, e.g. with a TC 504 controller
Please consult your glaze and clay suppliers to find out the firing behaviour of your materials and adapt the firing
curve of your controller accordingly.
6.2. Correct operation during firing
• Do not place flammable objects near the kiln.
• The kiln may only be used in a well-ventilated room. In order to guarantee safe operation, the kiln may be only
operated up to an environmental temperature of 40°C.
• The kiln must be placed in a free-standing position in the room. Make sure that the heat release is not blocked.
Do not place any objects on top of, or around, the kiln.
• Never open the kiln during operation or before it has cooled down completely. High temperatures are released and
might cause physical injury and material damage. The manufacturer of the kiln does not assume any liability in such
cases!
• When firing materials which release hazardous gases and fumes, an exhaust air system must be installed that directs
these into the open air.
• Never use your kiln for firing inflammable materials or food.
