SAFETY
Read and understand this installation and operating manual as well as the controls manual before operating your kiln. If you have any questions please
contact Evenheat Kiln at 989-856-2281 or at evenheat-kiln.com.
Kilns are as safe as any other electrical appliance when used under normal and proper operating conditions. To create and maintain this safe environment
observe all safety precautions.
Warning Symbol Descriptions
Warning symbols are used throughout this manual. These symbols alert the operator to certain hazards and important information. Pictured below
are symbols used along with a description of each.
The Exclamation Point alerts you to particular cautions, hazards and information.
The Lightning Bolt alerts you to specific information regarding the risk of electric shock.
Electric shock may result in injury or death.
The Heat Waves alert you to specific information regarding the risk of burn injury.
Emergency Shut Off Provision
The kilns power supply connection (plug/receptacle, breaker or disconnect) acts as the emergency electrical power shut off. Access to these
devises should be unobstructed and safe at all times.
All electrical installations for direct wired models (those without a plug/receptacle connection) must include a power disconnect near the kiln and that
is easily accessible and safe for emergency power shutoff.
Electrical Safety
A licensed electrician should be used for all electrical installation and service. All applicable local, state and federal electrical codes must be
followed.
Use correct voltage, wire size and fuse or breakers. Kiln electrical requirements are located on the kiln nameplate. Make sure all electrical connections
are tight. Avoid using aluminum wire.
Always use the proper electrical receptacle. Never alter the kiln cordset or cordset plug. Alterations can be dangerous. Alterations will void any
warranties along with nullifying any Listing Agency markings.
Evenheat recommends that a voltage check be performed before placing the kiln into service, ideally before actual purchase. Operating
voltage varies. The kilns operating voltage (printed on the kilns nameplate) must match the applied voltage (actual electrical service voltage).
If it does not, do not install or operate the kiln as potential electrical and fire hazards exist. Contact Evenheat for guidance in such cases.
The kiln must be properly grounded.
Unplug or disconnect the kiln from the electrical service before accessing the chamber for servicing or vacuuming. Do not attempt to touch
or replace the heating elements while the kiln is plugged in or connected to the electrical service. Electric shock may result in serious injury
or death.
Never, ever use an extension cord to operate a kiln.
The Studio Pro 17 consumes 18A at 120V. The power circuit requires the use of a “Fully Rated” 20A breaker.
