Congratulations!
Your selection of the Insta heat seal machine is a sound business decision. Insta equipment is
the result of the highest quality engineering and time-tested design. Your new machine
combined with Insta’s reputation of innovation in the heat-sealing field, ensures the continuing
capability of delivering the best decorated substrates possible.
This manual describes installation, operation, and maintenance procedures for your 907 series
machine, as well as easy to use instructions for on-the-spot maintenance.
Your machine will have a long trouble-free life. Read this manual and keep it with your
machine. It's your key to proper operation and lasting service.
General Description
The 907 is a dual station shuttle press for high speed label application. This pneumatic heat
press machine is air-operated to prevent operator fatigue and is equipped with 2 independent
lower platens, with an upper heated platen that swings between the two, for optimal efficiency
The 907 has been strategically designed to generate & evenly distribute tremendous pressure
throughout the entire platen. And, its cast-in tubular heating element heats the metal from
within, to produce consistent and long lasting heat. A successful heat transfer application
requires 3 key elements to work in tandem– time, temperature & pressure. The 907 has
mastered those elements and gets the job done every time.
Our heat press machines serve as a method of product identification and provide customers
with a means of branding their textile-based products through the application of tagless labels,
logos, decorative front and back graphics and over-sized prints.
Limited Machine Warranty
Insta warrants this heat seal machine, when operated under normal conditions, to be free from
manufacturing defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year on parts (lifetime
on the upper heating element) and 90 days on labor from the invoice date.
This warranty will be effective only when Insta authorizes the original purchaser to return the
product to the factory in Cerritos, California freight prepaid, and only when the product upon
examination has proven to be defective.

Operation
1. Push ON/OFF switch to ON position.
2. Set desired temperature (See Controller
Operation).
3. Allow the machine to warm up until the selected
temperature is reached.
4. Set the desired pressure by adjusting the air
pressure regulator.
5. Select the desired timing cycle (See Controller
Operation).
6. Place the substrate on lower platen, smoothing
out all wrinkles.
7. Position transfer or lettering on substrate.
8. Swing the upper arm into position directly over
the lower platen.
9. Depress and hold both start buttons, one on
each side of the machine, simultaneously until
the lower platen contacts the upper platen. The
start buttons must be held until the upper
and lower platens make contact. At this point
the machine operation is fully automatic. The
platens seal the transfer to the substrate and
then release automatically at the end of the
selected timing cycle.
10. Swing away the upper platen to the opposite
side and remove substrate.
11. The DISENGAGE button may be pushed at
anytime deactivate the machine.
SAFETY DELAY FEATURE
For operator safety the machine
shall not operate unless the upper
platen has fully reached the left
hand position. An additional delay
has been incorporated in machines
running software 2.29 (see point 9).
Solid State Controller
This controller has three (4) control features:
1. Temperature - Temperature may be set from
125 - 450°F (52-232°C).
2. Time - Time may be set from 1 second to 10
minutes.
3. Counter – Cycle counter counts the number of
applications from 1 to 9999 (see additional Notes
– Counter).
4. Presets ‐Five (5) presets that can be
programmed by the user. Each preset will retain
a temperature and time setting, i.e. Program #1
could be set for 325°F and 10 seconds while
Program #2 could be set for 375°F and 15
seconds. Once the five presets have been
programmed, the user need only press the PGM
button several times until the desired program is
selected. The lit LED above the PGM button
indicates the selected program. Note: there is
also a sixth setting that is indicated by no lit
LED's.
NOTE
Another substrate may be prepared
on the unused platen during the
sealing operation of the used
platen.

designed not to operate unless the
upper arm is directly over one of the
lower platens.
NOTE
When the machine is operating with
none of the LED’s lit, i.e. no presets,
the time and temperature will be saved
even if the power is turned off. The
presets will also be saved when the
power is turned off.
NOTE
The DISENGAGE switch (located in
the center of the instrument panel)
may be pushed at any time to
deactivate the machine.

temperature is displayed.
•Press and hold SET button in while
pressing the UP (↑) or DOWN (↓) arrow
buttons to the desired temperature
setting.
5. Setting Time
•Press the MODE button until time is
displayed.
•Press and hold SET button in while
pressing the UP (↑) or DOWN (↓) arrow
buttons to the desired timer setting.
6. Repeat steps 3-5 until all five (5) presets

desired, see Additional Notes –
Temperature.

FORUSEBYQUALIFIEDPERSONNELONLY
NOTE
When in the normal mode, none of
the five program LED's will be
blinking and the user cannot change
the time and temperature for any of
the five presets.
NOTE

Preventive Maintenance
Suggestions
The Avery Denninson heat seal machines are
relatively maintenance free. For long, trouble-free
life, the following preventive maintenance should be
followed:
1. Do not heat seal items such as buttons, pins,
snaps, or zippers that tend to cut the silicone
rubber pad or scratch the Teflon heat platen.
2. Periodically clean the Teflon-coated heat platen
with a non-abrasive piece of cloth. Stubborn
stains may be cleaned, when platen is cool,
with mineral spirits.
3. When the heat platen is hot and not in use, keep
in open position (away from the silicone rubber
pad).
4. To prevent soiling of substrate, periodic wiping of
the entire exterior machine, including platens,
with a clean rag is recommended. If necessary,
use mineral spirits for cleaning a cold machine.
Since mineral spirits are flammable, use
precautions and keep away from sparks, flame,
or hot heat platen.
5. The machine requires periodic lubrication with a
high-temperature, non-melting grease
(MPPL023). Lubricate the post and heat platen’s
pivot pin depending upon usage. (Once every
month if used continuously.)
6. Turn off air pressure when machine is not being
used.
NOTE
Wipe off any excess oil or grease.
8
WARNING
Power cord replacement
should be from the
manufacturer only (because it
requires a specially prepared
cord).
With the above items you should be able to
accomplish most repairs.
Replacement of Parts
Refer to the 3D explosive view and the bill of
materials at the end of this manual.
NOTE
Machines are shipped with a standard
air fitting. EUROPEAN models
include a MPPF086 quick
disconnect air fitting.
Micro Switch Adjustment
1. Disconnect power supply; remove the top panel
of the instrument housing.
2. Swing upper platen into working position until
stop is reached.
3. The micro switch must be adjusted to JUST
CLOSE, as upper platen swings to this position.
4. To change micro switch setting, loosen the
screw on slotted end of micro switch. Move in
desired direction to bring switch to JUST
CLOSED condition (listen for an audible click
from micro switch) and re tighten screw.
Airborne Noise Emission
Sound pressure level at operator station does not
exceed 70 dB(A).
General Maintenance
It is recommended that you have the following
items available:
A.Regular screw driver
B.Phillips head screw driver
C.Small adjustable wrench
D.Needle nose pliers with insulated handle
E.Set of Allen wrenches
F.Grease gun
G.Special high temperature grease MPPL023

The Sleep Mode / Automatic Shut Off is designed to save
electrical consumption when the user is not engaged in the
usage of machines for a pre-determined period of time
defined by the user.
During activation, any disturbances such as the key press
or heat press cycle will reset the machine and reset the
timers for both Sleep Mode and Automatic Shut Off.
When the Automatic Shut Off is set to OFF and the Sleep
Mode is activated, any disturbances to the machine will
disengage the Sleep Mode.
When the Sleep Mode is set to OFF, the timer for Automatic
Shut Off will activate and resets after every key press or
heat press cycle.
