What works for me is to:
Hold the deadfall flap up,
push the 'on' button,
gently bring the dead fall flap down.

Note....Be sure to stay with the kiln...
if you are overriding the kiln sitter.

Just flip the deadfall flap back up. If
the hook will hold it up by friction, use
that; if not, tape the flap back up. Then
just push the 'on' button again - no sweat.
