2- 3cm 6mm bolts with washers
*The right hand side has a larger hole to adjust for media tracking

Step 3: install 55” media rollers
*leave loose for fitment
4-3cm 6mm bolts with washers

Step 4: Install square frame and 51” roller bar (transfer paper separator mechanism)
*the separator will mount onto the sliders that were previously installed on the table frames at
the factory
*leave loose for fitment
4- 4cm 6mm bolts (no washers)
2- 3cm 6mm bolts with washers
*the separator mechanism should slide freely

Step 5: install small diameter support brace onto the table legs
*leave loose for fitment
2- 3cm 6mm bolts with washers
Step 6: tighten and verify all bolts on table frame

Level table with heat press by using the 4 adjustable legs on the press
and the two on the table frame. This needs to be done to ensure that
the media tacks straight and even heat on the drum.
Step 10: plug in the air compressor to the 220v outlet on the back of the left cabinet and
