When the kiln arrives the handle and leveling feet will need to be attached. With the kiln sitting flat
on a table, lift from underneath the kiln base and raise the kiln enough to attach the front feet.
Then lift the rear to attach the back feet. It is safer and easier to have someone assist in this.
Simply screw the threaded foot into the hole on the base until it touches the bed of the kiln and
stop. The handle was removed for shipping. It just needs to be re-attached to the front with the
screws provided
.
To get started after attaching handle and leveling feet:
1)
Place the kiln onto a non-combustible surface at least 12” away from any flammable
materials.
2)
Plug the kiln into the back of the controller (not the wall).
3)
Plug the controller into the wall. (This should be a DEDICATED 20a circuit.) Note: ALL
kilns perform best closer to the breaker box.
4)
Slide the thermocouple into the hole in the middle of the right side of the kiln. It needs to
protrude at least an inch into the kiln to read properly. As shown in the picture, the brown
thermocouple wire should be bent in a loop away from the kiln and controller to ensure the
kiln can open and close without touching the thermocouple wire.
5)
There are TWO toggle switches to power on your kiln. The first one is ON THE KILN
itself above where the power cord comes out of the kiln. The other is on the controller.
Flip both switches on. The kiln controller will power up and show the start screen.
6)
Kiln-wash the raised area of the floor (directions are provided on the pack of kiln wash that
came with your kiln.)
