Instrucciones de instalación
- Coloque la base: Place the incubator base on a flat, stable surface.
Video: "How to install the incubator" demonstrates base placement and grid installation.
Video Description: This video illustrates the initial steps of setting up the incubator, including placing the base and installing the internal grid.
- Install Grid and Egg Frame: Insert the grid into the base, ensuring the textured side faces upwards. Then, place the egg frame on top of the grid. Ensure the egg frame can slide freely left and right.
- Adjust Card Strips: Insert the provided card strips into the slots of the egg frame. Adjust the spacing of these strips according to the size of the eggs you intend to incubate. This allows for different egg types (chicken, duck, quail, goose, etc.).

- Attach Hose Assembly: Take the hose assembly from the kit and install it onto the designated area on the incubator's control unit. Ensure the hose is not blocked.
- Connect Water Bottle: Fill the provided 300ml water bottle with water. Insert the long tube of the hose assembly into the water bottle, ensuring it reaches the bottom. This system provides automatic humidity control. Each refill typically lasts 5-7 days.
- Install A/B Water Tank: If additional humidity is required beyond the automatic system, or if humidity levels drop below preset, water can be manually added to the A/B tanks located at the side of the base. Use the yellow cover to access these tanks.

- Cerrar la tapa superior: Carefully place the top cover onto the base. Ensure that the rotating shaft from the top cover is correctly inserted into the open slot of the egg tray. This is crucial for the automatic egg turning function.

- Place an egg over the candler light on the control panel.
- Press the Egg Candling button (light bulb icon) once to activate the light.
- Observe the egg for signs of development (e.g., visible embryo, spiderweb veins).
- Press the Egg Candling button again to turn off the light.
Ventilación:
During pre-incubation, keep the vents closed to help the incubator reach the required temperature and humidity. Open the vents during the last three days of incubation to prepare for hatching.
