MOVING THE KILN WITHOUT
DISASSEMBLING IT
SEE THE CAUTION NOTE ON PAGE 1 OF
THESE INSTRUCTIONS . THIS TAKES TWO
OR THREE STRONG PEOPLE TO DO .
Moving an e18T, e23T or e28T (three-section
kiln):
1) Remove the lid because this is easy
and removes much of the weight . 2) Prepare
the stand and place the floor slab on the stand .
3) Pick the the kiln up by the chest handles
on the bottom kiln section and place the three
connected sections on the floor slab .
Moving an e18S, e23S or e28S (two-section kiln):
1) Remove the lid because this is easy and
removes much of the weight . 2) Prepare the
stand . 3) Pick up the kiln by the front chest
handle attached to the kiln floor and by the
hinge . 4) Place the entire unit on the prepared
kiln stand . NOTE: It is important to lift the two-
section kilns up by the handle on the floor slab
because the hinge is attached to the floor slab in
the back of the kiln . You will damage the floor
slab if you do not follow this procedure .
Go to step 10 on page 13 .
REMOVING THE HINGE
1) Loosen the screws of the large hinge piece that
holds the three rings together (or the two rings and
bottom) .
DO NOT REMOVE SCREWS . The teardrop
holes will allow you to remove the hinge piece
without taking the screws out . If you take the
screws out it increases the chance of stripping a
screw . Even though there are plenty of screws to
take the load it is best to avoid stripping them .
2) Gently pull the ring hinge piece up and away from
the kiln
Pulling the hinge piece up and away from the
kiln. It should slide up easily. If not check all the
screws because it only takes one screw that
is not loose enough to prevent the hinge piece
from sliding up:
NOTE ABOUT HANDLES: We have replaced
the handles that you see in these photographs
with heavier duty chest handles .
