the shirt, adjust the height to less pressure, then press.

IV. Maintenance
1. No action after turn on the machine
1). Check the plug whether it connects well or whether it is broken.
2). Check the power switch or temp. & time controller whether it is broken.
3). Check the fuse whether it has been burnt out.
4). Indicating light is on, but no display on screen, check the 5 cable of Railway transformer. If it’s loosening,
showing the problem is poor connection. If they connects well, showing that the Transformer is faulty.
2. Turn the power switch on, light is in the bright, the Temperature controller only displays –L-- and no any
other changes.
Checking the connection of Thermocouple whether it’s loosened. Or the Thermocouple is broken.
3. Turn the power switch on, light is in the bright, the Temperature controller only displays –H-- and no any
other changes.
Checking the temperature controller if it’s with interior damping, or the controller is broken.
4. Turn the power switch on, light is in the bright, the Temperature controller displays incomplete data.
Checking the nixie tube or the electronic component whether it’s damaged.
5. The machine is at state of working: Press the Limit Switch, Time controller shows no countdown.
1). Checking the connection of Limit Switch if it’s loosened.
2). Checking the switch whether it’s pressed properly.

6. The heat platen is heating well, but the Time Controller countdown even the platen is not pressed down.
Checking the two cables of Limit Switch whether they are connected mistakenly. If the connection is reversed, the
problem would exist.

V. Trouble shooting for transfer print quality
1. If the print color is pale: the temperature is too low / the pressure is not correct / or not pressed long enough.
2. If the print color is too brown or the transfer paper is almost burnt: reduce the setting temperature
2. If the print is blurring: too much transfer time causes proliferation.
3. If print color is different/ partial transfer effect is not good enough: the pressure is not enough / or not pressed
