Pressing Pad Assembly
The pressing pad normally supplied with this machine is silicone rubber.
The pressing pad must be maintained in good condition at all times and
replaced when showing signs of wear. A worn pressing pad will always
affect the quality of printing/fusing. Do not insert items into the machine
which would tend to cut the pressing pad, i.e. buttons, pins, press studs or
zips.
Never allow the hot heat plate to rest on the pressing pad when the press is
not being used as the pad may be damaged.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The pressing pad supplied with the machine is of the correct thickness.
Using a thicker pad may invalidate your warranty.
