MANUAL FOR USE OF INCUBATORS MOD. EASY - INCA - MAYA
GB
BEFORE OF THE USE
Before using the incubator, it is recommended to study the Instruction Manual, especially the technical and safety
data aspects, in order to gain an understanding of the components and the potential operation of the machine.
MACHINE UNPACKING
Take the incubator out of its cardboard box and remove the internal components which are secured by the
adhesive tape and check that they are intact. Check the following components are included:
• no. 1 instruction Book
• no. 1 safety fuse type 2AT (5x20)
The incubator is supplied with a single phase electric cable (approx. 2 mt.) with a plug for the electric connec-
tion 230V
, 50-60 Hz. On the back of the machine, the data plate gives full details regarding the voltage, power
~
requirements, registration number and production date.
IMPORTANT: Remember to check thermometer is working correctly, examining that there are no breaks in the
line of mercury.
WARNINGS: The incubator must be connected to a net supply with earth connection. Take off the electric
plugs before cleaning operations. If the electric cable with plug is damaged, it must be replaced by the manu-
facture or by Technical assistance service or by authorized personal to be prevented any risks. The electric
cable with plug should not be accessible to the animals. Empty water basins before to move the incubator. Do
not use the incubator if damaged.
POSITIONING AND PREPARATION
The area where the machine is placed, should be well ventilated and dry, at a constant temperature between
18-24 °C. Place the incubator on a flat, level surface and near to an electric socket for easy access.
PLEASE NOTE: The manufacturer declines every responsibility in case of any improper use or improper pla-
cement, connection to any unauthorized apparatus or tampering from unauthorized personnel.
Thermometer: insert the thermometer into its clip on the right side and adjust it so that its bulb is level with
the centre line of the eggs.
)
Before using the machine, remember to clean it carefully inside and outside, as shown in paragraph "Care and
Maintenance";
In order to generate the required humidity during incubation time, fill the basin supplied with tepid water and
place it on the machine bottom, under the metal grid.
USE AND CALIBRATION
Plug the incubator into the electric power and allow it to come up to operating temperature (100°F). Allow the
machine to run at the correct temperature before setting the eggs. When the incubator has been running at the
working temperature, place the eggs in the incubator lying on the wire mesh, between the rods of the egg grid
& esure that the peg on the turner motor on the underside of the incubator plastic top is inserted into the metal
stirrup connected to the egg grid. Remember to turn the eggs twice per days, morning and evening, by the key
on metal turning grids, if the machine were supplied with manual egg-turner. Remind that on the hatching
period (last two days) it will be necessary to stop the automatic turning device simply removing by the machi-
ne the metal egg-turning grid. The thermostat ELTP2B-P, placed on the unit top, has been set-up by the fac-
tory and indicates when the machine is working (the led power results lighted). The continuous or intermittent
lighting of the led – ON – points out the heating activation. Check that the set temperature on the thermostat
dial agrees with the reading on the mercury thermometer inside the incubator. If necessary, adjust the set tem-
perature slightly by using a screwdriver in the central white screw on the thermostat box until the thermome-
ter reads 100°F (37,8°C). It's important to check the temperature on the thermometer in the incubator.
IMPORTANT: if all instrument setting attempts result useless, do not remove absolutely the thermostat from
its place to effect any improper or not authorized operation, just contact the builder for a possible reparation
or substitution.
