Paul Cummins is a ceramic artist in the UK working on a massive project to make one poppie for every UK soldier killed in World War I. The poppies are being displayed at the Tower of London and then sold to the public. Our Jumbo Bell-Lift kiln, sold and installed by Potclays, our UK distributor, is helping him with this Herculean task. L&L Kilns is proud to be part of this memorial.

This video demonstrates how to remove a ring from a bell-lift kiln for repair or replacement. Here are some additional notes: 

-Be sure to protect the paint from the steel cables with some sheets of cardboard over the top. 

-Before you remove the element boxes and cords, be sure to photograph how the wires hook back up 

-Before you lift, loosen those rubber rollers so they're not adding friction as you lift. 

-Before you lift, those sharpie lines you see them drawing in the video on the fiber lid and the metal base are critical for lining everything back up. 

-The steel cables are sized so that the sections have gaps between them as you lift and prevent rubbing on each other. 

-Since the safety pins aren't usable in this scenario with everything lifted, PLEASE be careful not to lean into the kiln as you remove the bad section 

-As you remove the bad section and put the new one in, watch the element terminal

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.

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.

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.

This video provides a step-by-step walkthrough for assembling an L&L Kilns EFL Series Front-Loading Kiln, using the EFL 2635 model as an example. The kiln ships in several components, including the kiln body, leg assemblies, and the control panel. This guide highlights the key steps to get your kiln safely installed and ready for electrical hookup.

Begin by placing the kiln in its installation area. Remove the plastic wrap from the kiln body while someone supports the door. Take out the internal support box and foam—these are for shipping only and may be discarded.

Remove the factory-installed bolts at the hinge points. Lift the door into place and rest it on the lower brackets. Align the hinges with the bolt holes.

• Ensure the hinge bushings sit flush between the door and brackets.
• If gaps appear, use the included washers to eliminate spacing.
