7. OTHER FEATURES

7.1. Transport / Delivery

It may be necessary to dismantle the kiln to move it to its final operating position� This is not usually necessary for
smaller models� However, it is easier to transport models from TE 60 upwards if the cover, rings and floor are dis-
assembled� Only use the designated handles or the stand for transportation� When lifting the kiln do not pull the
cover bolt next to the safety switch� There is a risk of pulling the safety switch out of the round hole, which would
affect its functionality� If you pull the switch, this will cause the kiln to switch off and an error message will be displayed�
7.1.1. Dismounting kiln cover
Open the kiln cover� Use a screwdriver to push the metal sleeve on the top of the spring upwards (figure 11) until you
can pull the gas-operated compression spring away from the ball-shaped head (figure 12)� Have a second person
hold the cover to prevent it from falling onto the main ring�
figure 11
Now use a size 8 Allen key to loosen and remove the two hexagon socket screws (figure 13)� Now lift the cover and
lay it to the side� Place the cover on a smooth, even surface� Never stand it vertically on its side! Please make sure
that safety switch drops back into the round hole after assembling the Toploader� If this is not checked, the kiln will
switch off and an error message will be displayed�
7.1.2. Dismounting kiln main ring
From model TE 60 onwards the main ring can be de-
tached from the floor� For transportation the catch is pro-
tected with a pin� The protection pin must be removed in
order to remove the main ring� Bend the protection pin
(figure 14) so that it is horizontal and pull out of the catch�
7.1.3. Dismounting supplementary ring
If your kiln is equipped with a supplementary ring you must remove it for transportation� Disconnect the electric
connection from the switch cabinet and proceed as described in section 7�1�2� Place the main and supplementary
rings on a smooth, even surface; otherwise the fire bricks might be damaged! Do not stand it vertically on its side!
