The DS-60 Heat Press is a large and heavy piece
of equipment. It is necessary to employ
LICENSED RIGGERS ONLY to move the
machine. The heat press is not designed to be
tipped up or sideways in any way. Such action
disturbs the exact alignment of the rolling parts
of the machine and requires extensive
realignment. GBC Pro-Tech’s warranty does not
cover malfunction of the equipment due to
mishandling and/or tipping.
GBC Pro-Tech bears no responsibility for
personal injury or damage due to moving the
heat press improperly.
Do not use a knife or other sharp instrument
during installation or while servicing the heat
press. You can cause irreparable damage to the
rolls.
ALWAYS CHECK THE POSITION AND
CONDITION OF THE THERMOCOUPLE
PRIOR TO OPERATION! The thermal junction
of the thermocouple MUST make contact with
the upper main roll to maintain proper roll
operating temperatures. The thermocouple must
also be free of adhesive and dirt. The roll can
overheat and cause a fire or seriously damage the
heat press.
