NOTE: If the distance between the skid and the
rollers is too far to move the finisher safely onto the
rollers, make another “step” by placing blocks of
wood between the skid and the rollers. The wood
should be level and shorter than the skid but taller
than the rollers. Gradually step the finisher down
onto the blocks of wood and then again onto the
rollers.
8. Slowly roll the finisher forward so that it comes
off the first roller, stays on the second roller, and
moves onto the third roller. Refer to Figure 7.
9. Level the finisher from right to left and front to
back. Verify right to left level by checking the
level of the heated roll, not the cabinet.

circuit not shared with lighting or other equipment.
Grounding Instructions
NOTE: To ensure protection against shock, this
flatwork finisher MUST be electrically grounded in
accordance with the local electrical codes, or in the
absence of local electrical codes, with the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA
No. 70. In Canada the electrical connections are to
be made in accordance with CSA C22.1 latest
edition Canadian Electrical Code, or local
electrical codes. Electrical work should be done by
a qualified electrician.
This flatwork finisher must be grounded. In the event
of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. This flatwork finisher
must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent
wiring system; or an equipment grounding conductor
must be run with the circuit conductors and connected
to the appropriate ground location.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire,
explosion, serious injury or death:
• Disconnect electric power to the
flatwork finisher before servicing.
• Close gas shut-off valve to gas flatwork
finisher before servicing.
• Close steam valve to steam flatwork
finisher before servicing.
• Never start the flatwork finisher with
any guards/panels removed.
• Whenever ground wires are removed
during servicing, these ground wires
must be reconnected to ensure that the
flatwork finisher is properly grounded.
W814
To reduce the risk of fire and electric
shock, check with a qualified serviceman
for proper grounding procedures.
Improper connection of the equipment
grounding conductor may result in a risk
of electric shock.
W068
WARNING
In case of servicing (or putting the
flatwork finisher out of order), disconnect
the flatwork finisher from the main supply
by switching off the branch circuit
breaker.
W816R1
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
de-energize the electrical circuit being
connected to the flatwork finisher before
making any electrical connections. All
electrical connections should be made by

Inlet Pressure
Use a manometer to verify that the inlet pressure meets
the following requirements:
Natural Gas service must be supplied at
7.0 ± 1.5 inch water column pressure
(1.74 ± 0.37 kPa).
L.P. (Liquefied Petroleum) Gas service must be
supplied at 11 ± 0.3 inch water column pressure
(2.74 ± 0.07 kPa).
Manifold Pressure
To check manifold pressure, use a manometer to verify
that the settings of the gas valve correspond with the
type of gas being used.
1. Connect the manometer to the pressure
connection located on top of the gas valve while
the burner is ignited.
2. Read the manometer to determine the pressure of
the gas. The measured gas pressure must be equal
to the pressure indicated on the finisher’s serial
plate.
3. Install a pressure regulator valve (obtain locally),
suited for the nature and flow rate of the gas
used, in the tube system near the finisher.
