2. Press Setup
Most users will encounter greater utility and productivity using the Pikes Peak V2 or Longs Peak rosin press in the vertical orientation. This is
because loading and unloading bags and parchment tends to be easier. It is our recommendation that you become familiar with the press in its
vertical orientation first, if desired.
For horizontal orientation pressing, virtually any silicone or parchment collection surface will work well.
Note:

2.1 Vertical Orientation Setup
Warning: HEAVY EQUIPMENT. Two people recommended for setting
up the press vertically or horizontally.

2.2 Horizontal Orientation Setup
Warning: HEAVY EQUIPMENT. Two people recommended for setting
up the press vertically or horizontally.

Note: In the vertical orientation, the pneumatic hoses should cross as shown
in Figure 4A. In the horizontal orientation, they will not cross.
Note: Your Dual Pressure system installs easily in both
the horizontal and vertical orientations with just a
Phillips screwdriver. There is a separate bag included
with your press kit of additional pneumatic tubing for
the horizontal setup if you are mounting it that way.

2.4 Electrical Power
Your product serial label will indicate if your press is rated for 120/240VAC
or just 120VAC. Your press kit will come with an appropriate power cable for
your location.
Power Draw: 8 amps while heating, 2 amps passive draw.
Emergency Stop: In the event of an emergency, pushing the E-Stop button
disconnects power to the heaters and the solenoid valve. Disconnecting
power to the solenoid valve will cause the plates to immediately retract so
long as an air supply is connected.

Note: Connecting to any other power source other than
what your press is rated for on its serial label will void
your warranty.

2.5 Compressed Air
Both the Pikes Peak V2 and Longs Peak require clean, dry compressed air
for long term operation. While there are many brands and types of air
compressors, we specifically suggest California Air Tools, Chicago
Pneumatic, or Quincy as some of the top brands we recommend and retail
on our website at www.purepressure.com.

3.1 Tips & Tricks

3.2 Choosing Your Material

3.3 Yield & Material Types
PSI: The PSI on the X axis refers
to the pressure at your bag, not
the compressed air pressure that
is available from your air
compressor.
While the Pikes Peak V2 and
Longs Peak can automatically
bag pressure, the formula is as
followed:
(Total Available Force / Square
Inches of Bag Pressed) = PSI at
the Bag
Example:
(9,000 LB / F) / (12 square inch
bag) = 750 PSI
Note: Some strains tend to yield very well, whereas
others may not. Try not to get discouraged if your yields
aren’t what you expected on your first press. Heavily
resinous, terpene-rich strains will always yield the best
quality rosin!

4. Pressware Controls
Even though the Pressware touchscreen interface can look
intimidating at first, rest assured, it is extremely easy to learn and
use.
Heat, press time, pressure stage indicators, and more are all
controlled by the interface. In the settings menu, you can also
adjust your values to convert all calculations and numbers metric,
if desired.
You do still need to manually set, adjust and regulate your
pressure via the Dual Pressure regulators in conjunction with your
air compressor.
In the following sections, we will cover exactly how to use your
Pressware controls and how you can get the most out of your
PurePressure rosin press.
