4.7.2. Mounting the controller on the wall
Choose a safe and easily accessible position on a wall next to the kiln. First screw the two knurled screws into the
holes indicated on the back of the control unit. They will be used later to fix the controller in the fixing device. Mount
the holding bar of the control unit using the 3 dowels and 3 screws, with one fixing hole pointing upwards and the
other two pointing downwards. Make sure that the transparent protective foil is correctly aligned! Now the control
unit can be plugged into the fixing device from above. You might have to loosen the knurled screws on the
controller.
4.7.3. Mounting other controllers
Choose a safe and easily accessible position on a wall next to the kiln. Detach the wall fixing device from the
control unit. Mount the fixing device on to the wall using 2 dowels and 2 screws. Now the control unit can be
plugged into the fixing device from above.

DANGER
Attention!
First remove the protective foil from the entire kiln (floor rings and cover)!
4.8.2. Description
Before starting to use the kiln in every day firing, you must carry out a dry firing. For this purpose make sure the
exhaust air opening on the side of the kiln is open. The "burning-in" by means of a dry firing is important, in order to
remove residual moisture from the kiln walls. It also generates a protective oxide layer on the heating elements
which will considerably improve the service life of these components.

4.8.3. Notes
Please note that the service life of the heating elements can be significantly increased by opening the air supply up
to a temperature of 600-700°C. During the initial firing you can also "burn-in" the hollow stilts and additional
furniture plates (optional accessories).
