Contraindication
2.1.2
Contraindication
The furnace head should not be
removed from the furnace base
as long as it is still hot.
Firing trays must not be placed
in the area surrounding the
firing table, since this will
obstruct the closing of the
furnace head. Place the fired
objects on the cooling plate
designed for that purpose.
Never reach under the furnace
head during operation. There is
a risk of crushing.
Foreign objects must not be
placed in front of the air vents.
Make sure that no liquids or
other foreign objects enter the
air vents, since this may result in
an electrical shock.
