R-Com Suro Easy Instructions
To be read in conjunction with the manufacturer’s instructions as supplied with the machine.
1.0Incubator Contents
Pictured above is what the completed machine will look like and below are its component parts.
2.0Humidity Pump Contents
2 x Nipple (The two pieces are already attached to each other via a small piece of tube)
2 x Bolts (Already bolted in the back of the pump)
1 x Tube (This measures 1.5 Metres)
1 x Pump Unit
1 x Cable (The cable connects to the humidity pump’s motherboard through the bottom of the pump. The other end connects to the incubator unit.)
3.0How to Assemble
It is strongly recommended to follow this set of instructions closely to avoid confusion.
3.1Begin by constructing the humidity pump; cut the long rubber tube in half to create two 75cm tubes. Attach one end of one 75cm tubes to one of the nipples and the other 75cm tube to the other nipple. Ensure that both tubes are pushed securely as far onto the nipples as possible.
3.2Now open up the pump by unscrewing the screws on the back (this requires a Phillips/Cross head screwdriver) and remove the top half. It should look similar to the picture below to the right.
3.3Place one of the nipples under the small latch that can be found near the pump water wheel. Once the first nipple is in place, pull the other one over the turning mechanism and put it under the other latch.
3.4Once this is complete, reconstruct the pump by screwing the top back on. Before tightening the screws, ensure that the all wiring is in the correct place and is not trapped between the pump’s shell.
There should now be two pieces of rubber tube coming out of the pump and, on the front of the pump, the tubes are labelled “IN” and “OUT”. You MUST make sure that the tube labelled “IN” goes into your water container and the tube labelled “OUT” is not attached to anything.
You will also notice that the wire coming out of the bottom of the pump is also not attached to anything, this will be explained later.
4.0The next step is to prepare the cradle.
4.1Firstly, attach the both ends of each of the metal rods to the corresponding parts of the cradle ends. See the picture below.
4.2Once this is done, you use the four screws (included) to tighten the rods to the cradle ends.
5.0The cradle is now ready. Next, prepare the incubator unit.
5.1Start by constructing the incubator base. Place the cream-coloured base on a flat surface and insert the grey-coloured egg tray. Once this is in place, place the hatching mat inside the grey-coloured egg tray.
5.2Now place the grey, rectangular egg dividers into any of the available slots. These can be adjusted later to suit the size of your chosen eggs.
5.3Take the clear, Perspex top section of the incubator and turn it upside down. At this point you should see the incubator’s fan protected by a grey cage.
Attach the two “V” shaped pins to the slots on either side of the fan. The paper-evaporation pad can be cut to your preferred size. It should then be folded lengthways in a “V” shape and attached to the inside of the incubator using the two “V” shaped pins.
5.4Once steps 5.1 – 5.3 are complete; place the clear Perspex top section on top of the base. The last thing to do is to attach all the cables.
6.0Complete the set-up
6.1Connect the humidity pump to the incubator unit by attaching the loose end of the “OUT” tube to the white nozzle on the right-hand side of the incubator unit. Push the tube as far onto the nozzle as possible to prevent it detaching unexpectedly.
6.2Next, remove the cover-cap above the nozzle, labelled “Pump Power, Power Inlet”, by unscrewing the small security screw.
6.3Beneath the cap there are two different sockets; the top socket, labelled “Pump Power”, should now be connected to the remaining power wire of the humidity pump; the lower socket, labelled “Power Inlet”, connects to the main power lead.
6.4Now simply reattach the cover-cap and retighten the security screw - ensure that both wires are placed in the spaces provided.
6.5Place the completedincubator unit into the appropriate slots of the cradle. The incubator should fit comfortably and securely. The once the cradle is connected to its power source, the incubator unit will be very slowly rocked from side to side. This process is very slow and often not visible to the naked eye.
7.0Digital Display
The R-Com King Suro’s digital display is located at the top of the main incubator unit. The image below describes the functions and features.
