Commissioning of the transfer press
Putting the heat press into operation
Before starting the machine, connect the black power cord to a 220 V power outlet.
Turn on the heat press with the ON/OFF switch on the rear side of the instrument box (on the
right side of the instrument) by setting it to I. In the I position, a signal lamp in the switch lights up.
The desired working parameters can now be set.
1) Set the main switch from 0 to I. As soon as the press is switched on, an acoustic
signal is emitted for approx. 1 second and the display shows "888". Immediately after-
wards, the actual temperature and the set time are displayed.
2) Set the desired temperature.
3) Set the desired pressing time.
4) Determine the necessary pressure with samples.
To regulate the pressure, turn the pressure regulator (hand screw immediately behind the hand
lever) in the appropriate direction:
- clockwise, to reduce the pressure
- counterclockwise, to increase the pressure
Please adjust the pressure only when the heating plate is open, otherwise the printing column
may be damaged!
Place the textile to be printed on the lower printing plate and place the transfer to be processed
on it.
To start the transfer process, pull down the hand lever. As a result, the heating plate is pressed
onto the printing plate and the transfer process is started.
After the preset time for the process has elapsed, the hand lever must be pushed up again man-
ually to end the pressing process.
Pay attention to the temperature and the transfer time and follow the instructions of the manufac-
turer of the material you want to transfer.
