The feet of the cabinet can be adjusted from the inside with the help of a Hex key. The feet must stand free on the floor and have an even weight distribution. Use a leveler and control that the cabinet is leveled; horizontally and vertically. NOTE: We recommend that the cabinet is installed on a firm and leveled floor. 3. Disconnect the bulb's connection plinth marked "LIGHT" and the flat cable connected to "X11" from the relay board. 4. Open the service hatch to access the program board (side frame of the cabinet). Disconnect the temperature and humidity sensor cables and the door switch cables. Pull up the cables through the rubber grommet. 5. From the inside of the cabinet, loosen the protection plate (8 screws). 6. Loosen both service hatches which cover the fans. 1 screw on each service hatch. Please observe that the front panel (on the top) must have at least 6.8 in / 175 mm free space above, in order to take off the top to perform service. Narrow spaces If the cabinet must be transported through narrow spaces, we recommend that you take off the doors first. It will simplify the handling and reduces the risk for damages on the doors. Demounting of the top To simplify the transport of the cabinet, the top can be demounted, see the instructions below. 1. Loosen the two screws which hold the front panel of the top. 7. Lift the top off. 2. Push the panel upwards. CAUTION There must be two persons to lift the top in a safe way. Don't try to do it on your own, the weight is 66 lbs / 30 kg! 22 Step 2: Fasten the cabinet to the wall Use the angle irons to secure the cabinet to the wall. The mounting holes are placed at the top of the cabinet. The angle irons can be adjusted to fit the distance to the wall. Step 3: Connect the cabinet to the ventilation channel For further instructions, se page 27; Requirements for ventilation. · Do not use ventilation channels made of plastic or foil. · Place the cabinet so that the ventilation channel is as short as possible. · Make sure that the ventilation channel is cleaned when a new cabinet is installed. · Use a 6 in / 152 mm rigid or flexible metal duct to the evacua- tion connection. · If you use rigid ducts, it is important that the male connector of the ventilation tube on each section follows the air direction. · The construction shall be as straight as possible. · Always isolate ducts that go through non-isolated areas. The condensation makes dust and dirt get stuck in the channel. NOTE: If the cabinet is not connected according to these recommendations, the warranty is no longer valid. NOTE: Please control that the cabinet is leveled and cannot be tilted. WARNING Cabinet needs to be fastened to the wall for safety. ATTENTION Never place the cabinet in direct contact with wooden material. Always use the stoppers to prevent the cabinet from direct contact to a wooden wall. Leave a security distance of at least 1.2 in / 30 mm. 23 Step 4: Connect the drying cabinet to the main switch To prevent that fire and electric shock appear, the cabinet MUST be connected according to the color codes on the cables. Only an authorized electrician is allowed to install the electrical connection. The cabinet is prepared for 240 V, 1P, 60 Hz electrical connection. You can also see which electrical connection your cabinet is prepared for by looking at the technical sticker inside your cabinet or buy contacting the support number. 2x · The cabinet is now prepared to be connected to the main switch/ breaker. · Make sure the front panel is removed before connecting the power cable. If not removed, detach the front panel by loosening two screws underneath (refer to the picture to the right). Gently lift the panel upward to reveal the electrical connections. · Find the designated marked hole situated at the front end of the top panel. WARNING When front panel, make sure no cables get caught between the top and the frame. Marked hole WARNING · Punch out the appropriately sized hole that corresponds to the chosen power cable. · Mount the strain relief within the punched-out hole. · Insert power cable. It is always the buyer that has the responsibility to check that an authorized electrician makes the electrical connections of the cabinet. WARNING · Connect hot wires and ground to the connection plint (see picture below) 240 V, 1P, 60Hz, 30A - ground L1 - Hot wire 1 L2 - Hot wire 2 · Tighten strain releif. · Reattach the front panel To prevent personal injuries, the cabinet shall always be connected permanently through an all pole main switch. Always ground the cabinet. Also check that the connecting cable has a strain relief bushing. If not, there is a risk that the cabinet will be live. Step 5: Control that the heating relay is working Shut the doors and start the cabinet, after about 3 seconds you can hear when the heat relays hit. Wait a couple of minutes and control that the outgoing air channel becomes warm. If the outgoing air channel does not get warm, go back to step 4 and control that the electrical connection is installed correctly. WARNING The manufacturer disclaims all liability if the electrical connection has not been carried out in the way described in this use and care manual. WARNING If the power cord is damaged for any reason, it must be replaced. 24 Turn the hanging frame/swinging hanging rail The hanging frame can be turned. The cabinet is delivered with a right-hung stand as standard. If a left-hung position is desired, follow the instructions below. The same principle naturally applies if the stand needs to be turned from the left to the right side. Follow the steps below. 1. Lift up the hanging frame and hook it off the tap below. Put aside. 2. Loosen and push the panel on the top. 4. Disconnect the cables which are passing through the rubber grommet on the support plate, from the keypad and LCD to the main control board. Open the service hatch next to the program board to access the cable connections. 5. Lift up the plate and remove the cables. Connect the cables to the board again. 6. Before the support plate is assembled on the other side of the cabinet; loosen the five torx screws on the left hand side. 7. Put the support plate on the side to which the hanging frame will be moved. 8. Re-assemble the torx screws. Thereafter, fasten the bolts, upper stearing tap and the stop plate. 9. Put the front panel back on again. 10. Loosen and move also the lower tap to the opposite side. 11. To get the arms on the frame on the same level, each hang- ing level must be turned "upside down". Loosen the upper hanging level from the frame. 3. Loosen the three bolts, the upper stearing tap and nut and the five torx screws which hold the plate and which support the stop plate. The drawings below shows where these parts are. 12. Rotate the hanging level 180° and fasten it again. Support plate 25 13. Repeat the same proceedure with the three remaining hanging levels. 14. Put the hanging frame back in and put the pole on the upper tap. Lower the pole so that it fits to the lower stearing tap. 15. Control that the frame can be turned and that the stop function works properly also in the outer positions. Adjust the rotary inertia of the hanging frame At the top of the hanging frame pole there is a bolt for adjusting the rotary inertia. If the hanging frame rotates with insufficient resistance the bolt can be tightened. 26 Requirements for ventilation WARNING A drying cabinet produces inflammable dust. To minimize the risk for fire, the evacuation of the cabinet must be connected to a ventilation channel that evacuates the air. Never let the evacuated air into a room or a surrounding where there is a risk for ignition. Do not use ventilation channels in plastic or fire dangerous material. Ventilation channel choice of material Ventilation channel, ducts, connections etc are not included. The ventilation channels shall be at least 6 in / 152 mm in diameter and should not have channels or similar on the inside. We recommend that the ventilation system is built with rigid metal ducts for best result. Flexible evacuating ducts for drying cabinets can also be used. NOTE: Never use flexible ducts through walls or other covered areas. Ventilation channel design IMPORTANT: Always make the channels as short as possible. NOTE: If a drying cabinet is installed in an old ventilation channel, please clean the channel properly. In order to make the cabinet work properly, the incoming airflow must be enough. The amount of evacuated air per hour is depending on how high the pressure fall in the ventilation channel is. Material, the design and the length of the channel have a large impact on the air flow. In order to get the best possible performance, the pressure fall shall be as low as possible. When the air is transported through the channel, it is exposed to different kind of resistance. Factors that give a low pressure fall: · Smooth inner walls on the pipe · Large diameter on the pipe · Short length on the pipe · Few curves · Few angels (90 degrees) NOTE: Do not screw or nit the ventilation channel, so that the screws will come through the inside of the pipe. This construction will gather dust and impaire the cabinet's performance. The channel shall always be separated from the other ventiltion in the house. Requirements for incoming air In order to make the cabinet work properly, it is very important that there is enough incoming air in the room. If the cabinet is installed according to this manual the air flow from the exhaust will be about 135 cfm / 230 m³/h. Incoming air must be at least equal to the outgoing flow. We recomend the incoming air flow to the room to be greater than the evacuated amount. If the cabinet is placed in a room where the incoming air is not enough, we recommend that you install an air exchanger. 27 Evacuated amount of air and pressure fall In order to get the cabinet to work properly, the ventilation channel shall be designed to get an out coming air flow from the cabinet of about 135 cfm / 230 m³/h. When the cabinet is installed to an existing channel system, the cabinet can be calibrated to optimize the air flow. In order to gain this air flow, the pressure fall must not exceed 70 Pa. By an airflow of 135 cfm / 230 m³/h and a diameter of the pipe of 6 in / 152 mm, this corresponds to a straight, smooth ventilation channel of 25 yd / 23 m. Pressure fall estimation The counter pressure in the ventilation channel can be measured with a pressure meter. The measuring point shall be placed by the cabinets evacuating outlet. In order to estimate the pressure fall without meter equipment we recommend the following: · Identify the ventilation channel's incoming components in the air flow direction. · Check the part pressure fall for each component in the table. · Calculate the total amount of pressure fall by adding each parts pressure fall. The table shows the most common components in a ventilation system. The information shall be considered as approximate data. For more information, contact the manufacturer of the parts of the system. Please note that the data in the table is for an air flow of 135 cfm / 230 m³/h. Decrease the outgoing air flow The cabinets function and automatic programmes are optimized for the recommended air flow of 135 cfm / 230 m³/h. If the design of the ventilation is made so that evacuated air flow exceeds 135 cfm / 230 m³/h, the evacuation can be throttled with help of a damper. Contact a ventilation expert in order to find a proper solution for your ventilation.

NOTE: If the highest allowed level of air pressure is exceeded an external fan could be needed. Otherwise the drying result is effected negatively. This cabinet is prepared for an external fan. Contact your local dealer for more information. 28 User manual Fill the cabinet To get the best drying result: dry the same type of material at the same time.
