  • Page 14 Place the cooling tray (34) on the frame plate (7). Make sure that the cooling tray (34) is correctly positioned on the frame plate (7). Secure the cooling tray (34) with the two screws (35) including the silicone washer (47). Step 2: Mounting the furnace head The complete furnace head (58) is best mounted with the rear panel of the furnace pointing towards the user. Lift the furnace head with both hands (see picture) and carefully position it on the furnace head mounting (43).
  • Page 15 Ensure that the furnace head mounting mark (41) is aligned with the furnace base mounting mark (42). M ake sure that the firing plate holder (48) is not damaged by mounting the furnace head. Step 3: Placing the firing plate for the investment ring (5) The firing plate for the investment ring (5) can now be placed on the firing plate holder (48). Step 4: Connections Connect the cables of the furnace head with the furnace base. Proceed as follows: – Insert the thermocouple plug (26) (make sure that the polarity of the plug is correct) – Insert the heater plug (28) – Insert the press drive plug (60)
  • Page 16 Secure the heater plug (28) with the plug fuse (27) by turning it until the heater plug (28) has been secured. Step 5: Mounting the hood (36) Once all cables are properly connected to the furnace base, the hood (36) can be mounted. Subsequently, secure the hood with the knurled screw (37). The furnace may only be operated with the hood mounted. Step 6: Establishing additional connections Power connection Please make sure that the voltage indicated on the rating plate complies with the local power supply. Connect the power cord with the power socket (17) of the furnace. Vacuum pump connection Connect the vacuum pump plug with the vacuum pump socket (18). We recommend using only the VP4 vacuum pump from Ivoclar Vivadent, since this pump is especially coordinated with the Programat EP 5000/G2. If other pumps are used, please observe and do not exceed the maximum power consumption.

Open the furnace head by means of the respective key (90). When the furnace head is wide open, switch off the furnace, disconnect the power plug and let the furnace cool to room temperature. 4. Pull the press plunger (59) with slightly rotating movements from the split taper socket (64) with one hand and pull down the press plunger in the firing chamber with the other hand. Contraindication: D o not touch the thermocouple when replacing the press plunger. 5. Push the white press plunger (59) with the taper ahead into the guide bush. Push the press plunger with slightly rotating movements into the split taper socket (64) and fasten the screw (65). Contraindication: Never reach into the press drive during operation.
