Operation - WilTec 50039 Operation Manual

Important: Remove the water container. Otherwise, humidity is too high for the chicks and there is the
danger of the chicks drowning. Although, the breeding chicks still need the humidity to hatch. This
means that you have to develop a feeling to choose the best option for both statuses.
If chicks still in the hatching process start pecking the egg from the inside, but have difficulties getting
through the eggshell, you can provide a starting aid by carefully opening the eggshell a little bit. It is
important to be cautious, not to provide this aid too soon. A lot of times, a wrong humidity can be the
reason of which as the egg membrane can dry and get stuck to the chick before it is able to get out of
the egg. Thus the chick cannot turn any longer and hatch.
Note: There has to be a sufficient fresh air flow, as the young animals can otherwise suffocate in the
closed container. If an integrated air hole is available, it will ensure for fresh air.

Operation

Before the eggs are placed into the incubator, do the following:
1. Open the packaging and check the content on integrity.
2. Note: The incubator should stay in the styrofoam packaging. On the one side, this helps to
save energy, on the other side the eggs are protected from external influences. If there are no
holes for the according connections and switchboards, these need to be added. Carefully use
a sharp knife or small saw.
3. Open the lid of the incubator and remove all included parts, except for the turning mechanism.
4. In the lid of the incubator, besides a thermometer and a air humidity sensor, there is a connec-
tion point for the turning mechanism cable. Connect the turning motor cable in the lower bit of
the incubator into the connection point to connect the electrical circuit.
Attention! It is important not to connect the three cables in the lid of the multi-storey
incubators (item no. 50041, 51273 and 51274) with one another! Otherwise, a short-
circuit can occur! Two of the cables (in this case the two yellow ones) belong to the
upper/lower turning mechanism and the third cable (in this case the red one) is the
connection to the central ventilation. This means that every cable inside the lid needs
to be connected to the lower part of the incubator.

Right: The three cables are not connected
with each another.
1. If all cables are connected properly, check the compliance of the operating current, stated on
the device, with the used mains voltage. If it complies, the device can be closed via the lid,
and the electricity can be switched on. The device will now start to heat up to the temperature
which can be seen on the control panel.
2. The incubator needs to run empty for at least 24 hours without interruption. In this time, you
will be able to get accustomed with all the incubator functions. Check whether all parameters
can be set without a problem and learn how adjustments are changes, e. g. turning of the turn-
ing mechanism (please see section "Display, function buttons and basic settings").
