Step 5:
Release the red latch and lift the hold down blanket to
expose the glass. Inspect the glass to make sure that it’s
clean. Clean glass makes a better quality screen.
Step 6:
Attach the film positive to the print side. The positive
should be positioned so that from the squeegee side,
the positive is read left to right. It’s very helpful to
use a preregistration system to make sure each piece
of film is attached to the screen in proper relation to
the other images.
Step 7:
Lay the frame on the glass with the film side down
and the squeegee side up. Next, lay the rope from
inside the screen across the screen edges and in
front of the vacuum hole. The rope creates an escape
route for the air inside the frame, it also keeps the
vacuum port from sealing against the glass.
Step 8:
Close the vacuum lid and latch it into place with the
red latch/seal mechanism. First, turn the power
button on. Second, hit the vacuum switch and allow
the vacuum blanket to form a complete draw down
around the frame. Third, when starting the timer, the
rocker switch for the light needs to be turned on and
this will begin the countdown of the timer. When
starting over, turn the light rocker switch off and then
back on again. This will begin the countdown again.
