Adjusting the pressure
This press is fitted
with a pressure-adjusting unit, which enables the
heat plate assembly to be raised or lowered by use of a pressure
adjustment knob located on the top of the machine:
a)
To increase pressure
or to use thinner materials turn knob
clockwise.
b) To
decrease
pressure
or to raise the heat plate assembly to
enable thicker materials to be used, turn the adjustment knob
anticlockwise.
NOTE
DO NOT adjust the pressure when the machine is clamped shut
CAUTION
Never increase the pressure to the extent of requiring undue force
to lower the toggle/heat plate assembly into the lock position, as this
will place excessive stress on the press frame, resulting in
permanent damage to the press.
Please refer to page 14 showing the operation of the control unit.
