Using your CraftDragon® ImPress

USING THE THERMOSTAT AND POWER SWITCHES

1.  The thermostat on the CraftDragon® ImPress can be adjusted to temperature conditions. Cold or hot conditions can affect the  working

 

 temperature of the CraftDragon® ImPress. It is advisable to keep the work room at a constant temperature.

2.  The power light comes on with a steady glow when the CraftDragon® ImPress is activated.
3.  To operate the thermostat, turn dial clockwise to increase the heat output.
4.  To decrease the heat, turn the dial anti-clockwise.
5.  Once you have finished using the CraftDragon® ImPress always turn the power off and re-set the thermostat to the zero position.
6.  Remove any dies with heat resistant glove or pad or when cool.
7.  Remember to unplug the CraftDragon® ImPress unit from the mains supply.
