SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
DON’T BE TRAPPED
When the machine begins to operate, do not move your hand,
face, or other parts of the body within the moving space of the
iron and/or the machine.
●You may get suppressed, bruised, or burned.
WARNING
BE CAREFUL WITH HIGH-TEMPERATURE PARTS
Steam pipes, steam hoses, and iron get extremely hot. Never
touch these parts with your hand.
●This could cause burns.
WARNING
Nobody is allowed to operate or service this machine other than
those who first read and understand this instruction manual.
WARNING
TURN THE POWER OFF BEFORE INSPECTION
When replacing covers, doing inspection/maintenance work, or
cleaning the unit, be sure to turn the power switch off so the
machine would not operate while you work.
●This could cause an accident and/or an electric shock.
WARNING
SECURE A GROUND CONTACT
After setting up the machine or moving it, be sure to secure a
ground connection.
●Electric leakage and charges of static electricity could cause an
electric shock or natural fire.
A-2

WARNING
STOP IMMEDIATELY IF THE MACHINE
DAMAGES A SHIRT
While using the unit properly and correctly, if any damage is
found on the shirt being pressed, stop the operation immediately
and find the cause.
●This minimizes the damage.
WARNING
DO NOT REORGANIZE OF THE MACHINE
We are surely recommended to prohibit reorganize of the
machines specification changes and removal of the warning
label etc.
●May cause of unexpected accident.
WARNING
PAY ATTENTION TO THE INSTALLATION
LOCATION OF THE MACHINE
Make sure to install the machine in a room where there is no
influence from weather and to keep it free from water and steam.
●Improper installation may cause damage to the machine and an
electric shock due to a short circuit.
WARNING
INSPECT STEAM LEAKS
Please inspect loose steam piping and steam leaks carefully.
●If steam leaks remain untouched, steam may be discharged and
cause burns.
CAUTION
CLEAN AIR-FILTER AND LINTO COVER
Prior to start work please clean and get rid of the drain filter for
the air and be accumulated in the oil mist separator as drain and
the oil are daily. Lint covers for the hot air blowing fan motor is
also.
●It is cause to be inferior the quality of the air parts and drying
condition if accumulated drain and the dust.
A-3

CAUTION
EXECUTE THE REGULAR CHECK
We are surely recommended execute the regular inspection more
than once per year for confirm the performance and activates
safely of the machine. Also please execute to replace the
consumption articles when limit the life time has come.
CAUTION
CONSUMPTION ARTICLES ARE MUST BE USE GENUINE
PARTS
We surely recommends to use our genuine parts when replace
each kind of pad or cover.
●In case to use except our genuine replace parts, it could not
well enough perform to activation than original piece.

INSTALLATION OF THE MACHINE
INSTALLATION OF THE MACHINE
Place the Machine on a proper level surface. It is a great impact on the action and life time of
the Machine whether it is ensured to be leveled.
For a place where the Machine is positioned, choose a secure floor that can withstand it’s
weight.
Secure space around the Machine so that the maintenance work will be done without
difficulty (More than 80cm is necessary).
For set up, more than 2 anchor bolts are needed to prevent fall.
Secure the space to see the name plate for confirm the type and serial numbers for repair the
machine etc.
STEAM PIPING WORK
For use in steam piping, use steel pipes for pressure of 1/2in. or greater.
Make the whole piping slightly down to the ground so it’s not to cause of any stagnant drain
water.
Regulate the pressure of steam entering to the Machine between 0.5 and 0.65MPa.
Install valve and strainer to the steam inlet side of the Machine.
Install the trap where steam outlet side of the machine.
WARNING
Reduce pressure up to 0.65MPa or lower which steam is
supplied to the machine.
●Suspect to damage steam iron and presser vessel.

ELECTRIC WORK
Power source is 3-phase, 200V, 30amps, 50/ 60Hz. It has 4 lines, one of which is ground wire
(green co lour).
When fitting a suitable plug to the AC line cord, it is essential that it contains an
earth/ground contact and that must be connected. Earth wire into the ground without fail.
Keep electric wiring part at least 15cm from steam pipe due to escape the heat.
Make sure that the turning direction of blower motor is same direction of below drawing that
the turning direction is anti counter clockwise from the front view.
WARNING
Install the short circuit breaker where the side of power source
of the machine due to prevent the trouble and electric shock.
●Recommend short circuit breaker: 30A
●Regular electric current: 30mA
●Power source: 3-phase, 200-220V, 60Hz
WARNING
ENFORCE THE CONTACT EARTH WIRE INTO THE
GROUND
In case of the earth wire has not been adopt, can not have the
place to escape the abnormal electricity and/or static electricity
and it may cause of the risk of electric shock. Also, the high risk
for the incorrect activation of the machine if affect by the
thunderbolt struck. And it may cause if the serious fire explosion
accident.

AIR PLUMBING
This machine will be needed to work that the power is more than 1 horse power (0.75 Kw)
compressor. Please use it well enough power even if the power is more than 1 horse power if
it’s to operate complex of the machine at the same time.
Please use the inner size of the pipe is bigger than 8mm for the air plumbing in case if it’s use
under 8mm it may result of reduce the pressure momentary and influence the function of the
machine incorrectly and finish condition as well.
Standard pressure of the main air regulator will be 0.5MPa if reducing the pressure during
the service it may cause of the shortage of the air supply so check the following cause.
・Capacity shortage of the compressor
・Shortage of the hose.
・Operating the complex of the machine at the same time.
・Leak the air and shut the air valve.
Set the valve as for the inlet side to able to shut the air when periodic maintenance.
We are surely recommended to have space approximately plumbing distance 10m between
compressor and the machine. Pressed air has been cool and easy to remove the moisture by
the filter.
CAUTION
CONTROL THE COMPRESSOR
Moisture and oil and impurities are makes the air filter being
short life and affects bad influence of the air parts so keep the
compressor in good condition for use long.

PERIODIC CHECK
DAILY PRE-USE CHECK
WARNING
Do not use the machine if all the safety devices and stop
buttons are does not work normally. Check this matters
everyday before use this machine.
Air filter for moisture and oil contents can automatically discharge such impurities with drain
when drains are accumulates. Check if impurities are discharged normally, and in case drains
are stagnant, and then please dispose of it by hand.
Check if all the pressure decompression valves are at specified pressures.
Main Regulator 0.50MPa
Tuck Slide Start 0.09Mpa
Tuck Slide Back 0.12Mpa
Dummy Slide Regulator 0.30Mpa
Remove the dust gathered on the inlet filter of the hot air blower for an arm.
Check if the cover of the dummy has not torn around the body and the tuck and if the pad has
not worn out if can not use please replace it as our genuine replace parts.
Check if air does not leak at the interconnected of the air hoses.
Check if steam does not leak at the interconnected of the steam as steam hose and/or each
plumbing parts.
Check if the air pressure is stable during operating the machine. If air pressure does not stay
appropriate level during the work check air filter and decompression valve.
PERIODIC CHECK AYEAR
Please execute periodically replace the filter elements as for following method.
NAME ELEMENTS REPLACEMENT TERM
Drain filter E-60D 2 years passes or pressure under 0.1MPa
Filter F4000-KIT 2 years passes or pressure under 0.1MPa
Oil mist separator MANTLE-ASSY 1 year passes or pressure under 0.1MPa
Please apply the grease for the dummy slide rail as well as apply the slide rail for tuck press
device for smooth movement.
Check if leakage from the packing of interconnected circuit of hot air blowing as for the
sleeves and air bag if you found any leakage, replace the packing for use long time.
C-1

NOTE
Efficiency of the filter for the air will be decrease by time passed
by so that the volume of the passes the air will be decreased
naturally. We are surely recommended to replace it as regulated
condition.
