of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may
not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:-
1.
The wire coloured green and yellow
must be connected to
the terminal in the plug, which is marked by the letter E, or
by the safety earth symbol coloured green, or green and
yellow.
2.
The wire coloured blue
must be connected to the terminal,
which is marked with the letter N, (Neutral Connector).
3.
The wire coloured brown

HEATING ELEMENT
The heating element
fitted to this press is rated at 0.50 kW.
Never connect
to any outlet or power supply having a different
voltage/frequency from that on the machine data plate.
2.4
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 and possible injury to the
operator.
Please refer to Page 16 showing the operation of the control unit.
