4. Konfiguracja
- Rozpakowywanie: Ostrożnie wyjmij wszystkie elementy z opakowania. Sprawdź, czy nie mają uszkodzeń.
- Umieszczenie: Place the incubator on a stable, level surface in a room with a consistent ambient temperature, away from direct sunlight or drafts.
- Water Channels: Fill the water channels at the bottom of the incubator with distilled water. This is crucial for maintaining humidity. Do not overfill.
- Taca na jajka: Ensure the egg turning mechanism (red tray) is correctly seated in the base.
- Podłączenie zasilania: Connect the power cord to the incubator and then to a suitable electrical outlet.
- Podgrzewanie wstępne: Allow the incubator to run for at least 2-3 hours before placing eggs inside. This stabilizes the internal temperature and humidity.
5. Działanie
5.1. Ustawianie temperatury
The incubator features an electronic control system for precise temperature regulation between 25°C and 39.5°C. The default temperature for chicken eggs is typically around 37.5°C.
- Press the "Set" button on the control panel. The temperature display will flash.
- Użyj przycisków „+” i „-”, aby ustawić żądaną temperaturę.
- Press "Set" again to confirm the setting. The display will stop flashing and show the current internal temperature.
The incubator will automatically maintain the set temperature. An alarm will sound if the temperature deviates significantly from the target.
5.2. Kontrola wilgotności
Humidity is maintained by adding water to the channels in the base. The incubator includes a fan for air circulation and even distribution of humidity.
- Monitor the humidity display on the control panel.
- Add water to the channels as needed to maintain the recommended humidity levels for your specific egg type (e.g., 50-60% for most of the incubation period, increasing to 65-75% during the last few days before hatching).
- Używaj wody destylowanej, aby zapobiec gromadzeniu się minerałów.
5.3. Automatyczne obracanie jajek
This incubator is equipped with an automatic egg turning mechanism. Eggs are gently tilted back and forth along their longitudinal axis, mimicking natural brooding behavior. This prevents the embryo from sticking to the shell and is vital for successful development.
- Place eggs carefully into the designated slots in the red turning tray.
- The turning mechanism operates automatically at set intervals.
- Ważny: Deactivate the automatic turning mechanism 3 to 4 days before the expected hatching date. At this stage, eggs should no longer be turned to allow the chicks to position themselves for hatching.
5.4. Incubation Process Overview
The incubator manages the following processes automatically:
- Incubation Time: Program the duration based on egg type.
- Temperatura: Electronically controlled and maintained.
- Egg Turning: Automatic tilting at regular intervals.
- Alarmy: Alerts for significant temperature deviations.
The temperature and incubation duration are programmable. The stages are set and executed automatically.
6. Konserwacja
Regular cleaning and maintenance ensure optimal performance and hygiene:
- Odłącz zasilanie: Always unplug the incubator from the power outlet before cleaning.
- Demontować: Carefully remove the top cover, egg turning tray, and any removable grids.
- Czyszczenie:
- Wytrzyj wszystkie powierzchnie adamp cloth and a mild disinfectant solution.
- Clean the egg turning tray and grids thoroughly, as they can accumulate debris.
- Upewnij się, że do podzespołów elektrycznych nie dostanie się woda.
- Wysuszenie: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling or storing the incubator.
- Składowanie: Store the incubator in a clean, dry place when not in use.
7. Rozwiązywanie Problemów
If you encounter issues with your incubator, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Możliwa przyczyna | Rozwiązanie |
|---|---|---|
| Inkubator nie włącza się | Power cord not connected; faulty outlet; damaged cord. | Check power connections; try a different outlet; inspect cord for damage. |
| Temperature unstable or incorrect | Incorrect setting; poor room ventilation; incubator placed in drafty area. | Verify temperature setting; ensure proper room ventilation; relocate incubator. |
| Humidity too low/high | Insufficient/excessive water in channels; room humidity too low/high. | Adjust water level in channels; consider using a room humidifier/dehumidifier. |
| Automatic turning not working | Mechanism jammed; power issue; turning function deactivated. | Check for obstructions; ensure power is supplied; verify turning function is active (unless near hatching). |
| Low hatching rate | Incorrect temperature/humidity; poor egg quality; improper turning. | Review temperature/humidity settings; use fresh, fertile eggs; ensure turning is active until lockdown. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact Wiltec customer support.
