INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
UNCRATING
Uncrate the machine very carefully and check for concealed damage. If any damage caused by
shipping is found, it should be reported to the transportation company and a claim filed by you.
Unbolt the machine from the base and move to approximate location of installation. CAUTION: DO
NOT USE HEADS OF BUCKS IN RIGGING MACHINE. After the machine has been placed in
position, level it by adjusting the leveling bolts.
Step #1 Connect the air supply (3/8) to the press (85 PSI, 6 Bars).
Step #2 Make sure the power switch is turned to off.
Step #3 Remove the access panel from the rear of the press.
Step #4 Connect 110V to junction box located on the inside of the right rear channel leg.
Step #5 Set head position switch to middle position.
Step #6 Turn power switch on head should go to normal operating position (about 60
degrees).
STEAM PIPING
Secure the services of a competent steam fitter. Steam inlets and outlets are marked. Do not connect
with any smaller piping than the size of the connection on the machine. Use traps and check valves
on all return lines. If your machine is piped according to the illustration on page 5, you should have
no problem with steam supply NOTE: This illustration does not illustrate the piping of this machine
but is representative of correct steam piping procedure. The connections are tagged.
If there are any questions about the connections, refer to the DETAIL LINE DRAWINGS (Page 5).
The steam must be connected to the machine in such way that the steam first goes to the press head
then to the press buck. Steam lines should be blown out thorougly before connecting to the machine.
This will prevent debris from damaging valves and stopping up lines.
COMPRESSED AIR
Connect air to the 3/8" filter / Regulator at the rear of the press. This should be drained daily or at
regular intervals. The air pressure regulator should be set at 80 to 100 p.s.i. on the gauge. The com-
pressor should be set so air does not go below 80 p.s.i. if a constant-running compressor is being
used with an unloading valve, set between 80 and 100 p.s.i. If other equipment require higher pres-
sures, it is all right to set the air compressor higher since the press has an internal preset regulator. A
cut-off valve should be installed at each machine so that it can be serviced, if necessary, without
shutting down the rest of the units.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A qualified electrician should be employed to make connections. Electrical specifications can be
found on the machine serial plate . Electrical Connections Instructions are attached to the machine
and an electrical wiring diagram is included in this manual. NOTE: All electrical wiring and
connections must be made in compliance with the requirements of the National Electric Code
and local codes and ordinances.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ON-OFF SWITCH
The On-Off Switch must be on.
AUTOMATIC MANUAL SWITCH
The Automatic Manual Switch must be to the right for the press to be in the automatic cycle.
CLOSING PRESS HEAD
The Close Switch must be depressed to close the press head.
LOCK PRESS HEAD CLOSED
To lock the press head closed the Lock Switch must be depressed while depressing the Close
Switch.
HEAD RELEASE
The press head can be released two ways, manually or automatically. To release manually, depress
the Cancel Switch. The head will release at the time the Cancel Switch is actuated. If the ma-
chine is in automatic, it will reset for another cycle.
HEAD (TOP) STEAM
To apply steam manually push down on the head steam valve handle. When the handle is released
the steam will shut off. Automatic head steam is applied when the press is in the automatic cycle and
the Lock Switch is released.
BUCK (BOTTOM) STEAM
To apply bottom buck steam depress the Steam Foot Switch.
TIMERS
There are five timers for the automatic cycle.
Timer Tl is for automatic head steam usually set at 2 - 1/2" to 3 seconds.
Timer T2 is for the dwell time between steam and first vacuum usually set at 2 seconds
Timer T3 controls 3 different operations. The first operation T3 controls is the first vacuum and is
usually set at 2 to 3 seconds. Timer T3 also energizes Timers T4 and T5 after the first vacuum is
completed.
Timer T4 controls the release of the press head and also determines when the second vacuum begins.
The head lift speed control valve #8 in back of Solenoid Valve SV3 controls the speed of the press
head as it begins to lift off the buck to prevent vacuum pick-up of the garment. Timer T4 should be
set at 1 to 2 seconds depending on where the head lift speed control valve is set.
Timer T5 controls the length of the second vacuum and ends the automatic cycle. Timer T5 must be
set higher than Timer T4 in order to get second vacuum. Timer T5 should be set at about 5 to 6
seconds.

MAINTENANCE
AIR CYLINDER
No maintenance.
IF THE HEAD DOES NOT OPEN WIDE
This indicates that one of the reed switch disks has been rotated on the cylinder shaft. Check diagram
for which disk.
EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON
The emergency stop button is connected to a reserve air tank. In case of air or electrical failure, or
both at the same time, the air in the tank will return the head to the full open position (110 degrees).
AIR FILTER
The plastic bowl has a manual petcock which should be drained daily. If there seems to be an exces-
sive accumulation of oily water, the air storage tank may need to be drained or the compressor may
have bad rings that need to be replaced. Dirty air is one of the chief causes of excessive maintenance.
If the air filter cartridge appears to be stopped up, it can be taken out and cleaned, usually by just
blowing it clean with an air hose. CAUTION: Remove all air pressure from the machine and air lines
before removing the filter bowl. If the bowl appears cracked or damaged, it should be replaced.
PADDING
No press will turn out quality work with inferior or worn-out padding. Padding that has been packed
down too much slows down both buck steam and vacuum. Low spots also tend to show up, giving
unequal pressure and poor quality.
We recommend cleaning the combination pads (those with sponge rubber inserts) every two weeks
by making heavy suds with a clothes type detergent (Wisk, etc.) and spreading a thick coating of suds
only no water to the surface of the pads. Scrub with fiber bristle brush. Let the press set over a
weekend. When returning to work, beat the surface of the pad with a round object, such as a broom
handle, WHILE VACUUM IS ON. This will loosen and remove any dirt, or buildup. CAUTION:
Never use any solvent that will attack rubber.
GRID (HEAD) PLATE
The grid plate should be removed when it becomes soiled. It can be cleaned with a mild detergent
and water. Cleaning solvents may also be used. The grid plate should be thoroughly dry before
replacing on the head.
REPADDING THE BUCK
Center the pad over the buck and bring head down against the pad to keep it from moving. Pull the
drawstrings just tight enough to hold the pad in place. If the drawstrings are pulled too tightly, the
pad will have a tendency to pull away from the pressing head around the edges. When installing
spring hooks, be sure that they are not pulled so tightly underneath the buck that grooves are notice-
able in the surface of the pad. The spring hooks should hook around the wire rods that fit the draw-
string track of the covers. The wire rods will prevent the springs from causing puckers in the pad-
ding.
