How to Unpack Your L&L Easy-Load Kiln

This video demonstrates the proper unpacking procedure for the L&L Easy-Load Kiln, ensuring a safe and efficient setup from the moment your kiln arrives.

1. Removing the Crate

Your kiln arrives in a heavy-duty wooden crate. Begin by removing the plywood top and side panels, then fully dismantle the wooden frame. Once exposed, remove the plastic wrap surrounding the kiln.

2. Freeing the Kiln From the Pallet

Unbolt the kiln from the shipping pallet. With the bolts removed, position a forklift under the kiln—making sure the forks are centered, straight, and placed on either side of the bypass collection box.
Lift the kiln slowly and slide the pallet out from underneath. Lower the kiln gently into its installation area.

  • A forklift is required for lifting the kiln from the pallet.
  • After it is on the ground, you may move it using a pallet jack under the metal frame.
3. Opening the Kiln and Removing
