Cleaning the Beds
The life of all ironer clothing depends largely on the
condition of the beds. A clean smooth bed increases
the life of padding and improves the quality of the
ironed linen. A typical ironing problem like creasing
on the leading edge is almost always due to a dirty
bed. Through not always visible, residuals and salts
will build up on the bed surfaces.
Before cleaning beds, deposit causes should be
identified. These are usually found in the washing
process:
●
Hard water (lime deposit)
●
PH value higher or lower than the ideal 6.5.
●
High rest moisture (to much water to evaporate).
●
Bad rinsing (soap residuals).
Cleaning Beds
NOTE: Cleaning the beds with hard materials may
cause damage to the beds.
When there is only build-up at the bed inlet, it can be
removed by hand and with Scotch-Brite™. However,
when there is build-up on the whole bed:
1. Drop the beds.
2. Let the machine cool down.
3. Wrap a cloth around each roller to protect the
padding against dust.
4. Wind strips of Scotch-Brite™ around the rollers
in wide lanes.
5. Lower hydraulic pressure to 217.5 psi - 290 psi
(15 bar to 20 bar).
6. Push the slightly heated beds against the rollers
and turn the rollers for 2 to 3 hours.
7. Keep watching to make sure the Scotch-Brite™,
does not loosen.
8. Remove all dust, Scotch-Brite™, and cloth.
9. Restore to original hydraulic pressure.
10. Heat the beds and pass a wax cloth to grease the
beds.
NOTE: Wax should be applied regularly but
sparingly so as not to clog up the clothing suction.
Always use a cloth and never apply wax between
roll and bed. That may cause spots in the ironed
items because padding absorbs wax.

Reclothing Roll
Required materials:
●

●
Stitching wire (.31 inch [0.8 mm]) low heat,
softened, pliable, stainless steel wire
Length: twice roller length
●
Strong sharp knife
●

New springs, when needed
To remove old clothing:
1. Lower the beds from the rollers.
2. Remove and retain all brass screws holding the
clothing at each end of the roller.
3. Cut away the wire at the seam and retain as a
model for stitching new clothing. Clean the
rollers.
To check bare rollers:
1. If the surface is uneven, level it off by pulling up
or knocking down any distorted springs.
2. Replace any springs that are damaged. Check that
the hooks of the springs are all in the same
direction.
To install new clothing:
1. Place clothing on last roller.
2. Affix the felt with one screw at each end of the
roller. Do not trim off the sides yet.
On oil heated ironers, too much wax
constitutes a fire hazard.
