INTRODUCTION TO THE MANUAL
Introduction to the Manual
This manual has been designed to be user friendly. Read it carefully, and follow the
step-by-step instructions to get the best possible printing results.
• Work very carefully and avoid contact with the hot plate to avoid serious burns.
Keep hands clear of heat platen while closing the press to prevent bruises and
burns.
• Use your press only on stable, steady and non-slip surfaces.
• Check the press immediately after unpacking for any transport damage. Allow
the press to stand for several hours at room temperature before using to pre-
vent the formation of
condensation, and thus avoid the risk of a possible short circuit.
• Operate the press whilst standing, with both hands on the handle provided for
this purpose. The machine
should stand at a level that is adapted to the height of
the operator.
• The optimum operating condition for your press is at a maximum humidity of 70 %,
and an ambient temperature between +15 °C and +50 °C.
• Should any liquid or solid object get inside the unit, immediately disconnect the
power plug from the wallsocket/outlet, and have the machine checked carefully by
an expert before it is used again.
• No liability is assumed by the manufacturer for any improper or nonintended
use of the machine resulting in property or personal injury.

Important Safety Instructions
Before you use your press, you should follow some basic precautions, including the
following:
Read the complete manual before you start to use your press. Use the press exclusi-
vely for printing textiles, or other suitable products that do not contain heat sensitive
components, and have not been treated with chemical additives.
Keep your press secure from rain, moisture, dirt, dust, direct sunlight, mechanical vibrati-
on or shock, as well as keeping it well away from highly flammable or explosive materials.
Never pull on the power cord to turn off your press, but always use the ON/OFF switch.
If the machine will not be used for long periods of time, pull the plug carefully from the
wall socket.
The power cord must not come into contact with the hot plate (upper platen).
Never use your press with a damaged or defective power cable. In the event of any
damage or defect, never remove the casing of your press, but discuss the problem
with a specialist who may be contacted during normal business hours by telepho-
ning (+49) 030/89 747 348. Opening the case will void the warranty on the press.
Avoid using the press in locations where children, or third parties have unsupervised
access to the press. The minimum distance for children, or other persons should be
at least 1.5 m away from the press to prevent burns and bruises.
When lifting the press for any reason you should grip the machine and not the
casing, as the casing contains plastic and delicate electronic components. Hold the
press at the base plate, or directly on the bottom. The press must be completely
cool and transported in the original box.
Before connecting the power cable check that the operating mains voltage will be
230 V. The outlet must be fused with at least 10 amps. You should only connect one
machine to a mains socket, and not use an extension lead.
When using the machine for printing, it should never be left unattended (danger of
fire). Please take care when loading the machine that it is fully open to avoid any
burns.
Keep these instructions in a safe place.

COMMISSIONING
Connecting the Power Cord
Ensure that the operating voltage of the mains supply is 230 V before connecting
the machine. The socket must be secured with at least 10 amps. Only connect one
machine per socket.
Do NOT use extension cords, as this can lead to overheating of the cable (fire ha-
zard), or to a loss of voltage.
Abb. 1 Turning the system on
• Open the press.
• Locate the ON/OFF switch on the back of the housing of your machine
• Turn the switch to ON.
If your HappyPress 3 switches itself off, restart the machine by pressing the power
switch twice to turn it off and back on again. Proceed by closing and opening your press
once before continuing to print.
Note:
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the Manufacturer or by a techni-
cal member of staff, to avoid the risk of an electric shock. Use a HSJ Power Cord with
250V - 10AMP for replacement.
