1.4 Replacing of the heating element
There are different types of heating plates for this heat press.
The instruction anual for the replacing of the heating
ele ent is described in chapter 3.6
•Heating ele ent for a beer stein: dia eter 95
•Heating ele ent for a ug stein: dia eter 72
•Heating ele ent for a latte
1.5 Safety arrangements of the heat press
The BluePRESSLine MUG 4 plus is equipped with different safety arrange ents, to ake a safe usage possible
Main fuse 10A
The 10A fuse is located on the back side of the press. The fuse protects the press fro da ages and in case of a short circuit. If
necessary, replace the fuse. The instruction anual for the replace ent is described in point 4.2.
Acoustic signal
An acoustic signal will sound 3 seconds before the end of the pressing process.
1.6 Safety arrangements at the wor space
Testing the heat press
After a correct installation of the press it is i portant to ensure that the press works properly, isn't da aged and has no safety defects. The
testing can only be done by the e ployer or other authorized persons and is andatory to guarantee correct installation and safe usage of
the press.
If any irregularities regarding functionality or safety are found during the testing, these have to been noted and reported to Walter Schulze
G bH in written for within 7 days. Until clarification the press can not be used.
Information and Education
According to § 81 industrial relations law and § 14 e ploy ent protection law the e ployer has to ake arrange ents to give all
infor ation about the function and the range of application to the user.
In particular the user needs to be acquainted with the co plete anual and be explicitly infor ed of the dangers of working with the press.
The details have to be explained in a coherent for and language.
Safety distance and ventilation
The press has to be installed at a place which gives enough space on both sides to put the aterial on.
The space in front of the press has to be wide enough to let nothing disturb the user at work.
Using the press with certain aterials ay create a strong s ell. That’s why the user should evaluate the need for a ventilation syste at
the workplace.
Safety instruction:
•The press should only be used by trained personal after notice of this anual
•Only one person is allowed to work on the press at a ti e.
•Beware of heating plate – risk of burns.
•The plug has to be pulled out of the power outlet while aintenance.
•Caution: please do not connect this press to any other outlet (socket) than those equipped with ground-fault protection ELCB
(earth leakage circuit breaker).

2. Initiation
2.1 Tips for transport
The BluePRESSLine MUG 4 plus is covered with a cardboard for transport. Right after the receiving you should check if the cardboard and
the press are in good condition. Later on, if you have to send the press so ewhere, we ask you to cover the press with the sa e
cardboard and in the sa e way. The press has to be cold and the pressure lever has to be pulled down.
2.2 Installation of the heat press
The press is delivered in a cardboard. After unpacking and connecting, you can work with the press. The BluePRESSLine MUG 4 plus
doesn't need any other ontage or installation
2.3 Power supply
The BluePRESSLine MUG 4 plus has to be connected to a voltage of 230VAC/ 50Hz. The press is equipped with a plug. Make sure that
the power outlet is in the right condition and that the grounding is connected to the power outlet.
Caution: please do not connect this press to any other outlet (socket) than those equipped with ground-fault protection ELCB (earth leakage
circuit breaker).
2.4 Initiation of the heat press
While powering up the press, the ovable part has to be in the upper position, which eans that the press has to be open. The press also
has to be open while heating up. The press can be turned on with the green switch. If the green switch glows the press heats up to the
adjusted te perature. After finishing the work with the press the switch has to be turned off and the plug has to be pulled out.

3.2 Bugfixing of the electronic devices
The electronic devices of the BluePRESSLine MUG 4 plus heat press control the ain functions of the press.
Here is a list of possible essages:
ERR.1 – No connection of the electronic devices to the te perature sensor, (Temperature sensor defect/ cable not connected)
ERR.2 – Connection of electronic devices and te perature sensor bypassed , (Temperature sensor defect/)
ERR.3 – Resistor of te perature sensor too low. The te perature range of the electronic devices is deceeded.
ERR.4 – Resistor of te perature sensor too high. The te perature range of the electronic devices exceeded.
ERR.5 – No te perature rise within 3 inutes even if heating ele ent is switched on. (Temperature fuse is defect)
ERR.6 – No reduction of the te perature within 3 inutes even if heating ele ent is turned off. (Power relay CRYDOM is defect)
ERR.7 – Te perature too high, over 230°C (Power relay CRYDOM is defect)
ERR.3 and ERR.4 can occur if the electronic devices are not progra ed properly.
3.3 „ECO” mode
With the ECO mode you will save power. If the ECO ode 1, 2 or 3 is active, the electronic devices will control the progress of work of
the press. If you should have forgotten to turn-off the press, never ind, the ECO mode will deactivate it. In phase 1 of the ECO ode,
while the press is o entarily not in use, the te perature will decrease 50°C (a 3 second long acoustic signal will sound). In phase 2, if
the press is further ore not in use, the heating ele ents will be deactivated to save power (5 sec. acoustic signal).

3.4 Application range and sample adjustments of the heat press
This heat press is ade for transfers to cups and pitchers. Here are so e settings.
Settings subli ation to a cup (Exa ple):
–Print te perature 180°C
–Ti e 4 inutes
You must never close the heat press without a cup inside!
3.5 Apply a transfer film to a cup
Insert the cup with the transfer fil
into the press.
Press the cup into the heating
ele ent.
Continue to press the cup down while
closing the press with the lever. The
press will heat up to the progra ed
te prature and the count the preset ti e
down. After the lapse of ti e a acustic
signal will sound. Open the press and
take the cup out.
3.6 Pressure settings
The contact pressure setting screw is placed at the front of the heat press. To adjust the settings, the heat press ust be open. The
contact pressure should not be too high, otherwise there could be a partial da age. After every odification you have to test the new
settings.
Damage, which is made by an excessive pressure setting, is not covered by the warranty.
If you want to ake the pressure settings, please follow this
description:
1. Place the cup in the heat press.
2. Close the heat press to check up the contact pressure.
3. Open the heat press.
4. To raise the contact pressure twirl the screw to the left
(+).
5. To downsize the contact pressure twirl the screw to
the right (-).

3.7 Replacing of the heating band
Before you change the heating band, switch off the heat press and pull the plug out fro the wall outlet. The heating band must be
cooled.
1. Unscrew the heating band and take it out (photo 1 and 2).
2. Cut the connector of the cable (photo 3).
3. Pull up the cable (photo 4).
6. Take out the old heating band and install the new one.
Check if the heat press is ready to work.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Maintenance
If necessary grease the ovable ele ents.
Switch off the heat press and pull the heat press out fro the wall outlet. The heating band must be cooled.
You can use a casual car grease.
4.2 Replacing the main fuse
If the heat press does not work and the ain switch is on, check the ain fuse. The ain fuse 10A is placed at the left side of the heat
press (photo 1). To change the ain fuse switch off the heat press and pull out the plug fro the wall outlet. The heating band must be
cooled . Unscrew the broken fuse (photo1). Change the fuse (photo 2-3) and screw on the new fuse.
