or injury to persons when the equipment is used.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Close supervision is necessary for any heat press being used by or near children. Do not leave equipment
unattended while connected.
Burns can occur when touching hot metal parts.
To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate other high voltage equipment on the same circuit.
If an extension cord is necessary, then a 20 amperage rated cord should be used. Cords rated for less
amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
Important
The Hotronix®Dual Air Fusion™is equipped with a Quick Release Button located on the top of the control
housing. When pressed, this button activates a quick release of the heat platen when in the print position and
automatically returns the platen to the “UP” position. Once activated, the button can be reset by pushing it in.
The press will then return to the Normal Operating Mode.
Light on = Normal Operating Mode
Light off = Quick Release Mode
In the event of a loss in air pressure to your machine while the
heat platen is in the down or print mode, remove the opposite
lower platen and push the top of the Dual Air Fusion over to the
open position. (Fig. 1)

Operating Instructions
The Hotronix®Dual Air Fusion™Operating Instructions are designed with the user in mind.
Carefully read and follow the step-by-step instructions for best results.
Voltage
220 Volt - A full 10 amp grounded circuit is required for 220 volt operation.

PDQXIDFWXUHULWVVHUYLFHDJHQWRUDVLPLODUO\TXDOL¿HGSHUVRQLQRUGHUWR
avoid hazard. Use SJT type rated 300 V cord for replacement.
Extension Cords
If used, extension cords should be as short as possible and not less than
12 gauge. Heavy duty cords are recommended.
Circuits
Circuits that have less than 15 amps or that have other high demand
equipment or appliances (especially more than one heat press) plugged
in, should not be used.
CAUTION Failure to follow these instructions will cause:
1. Erratic controller functions. 2. Inaccurate displays and slow heat-up. 3. The circuit breaker to disengage.
Connecting the Air Compressor
Connect the Air Hose (provided) from your air compressor into the Air
Connector located on the back of the press. (Fig. 1.2)
Note: Air compressor must be 1 hp compressor or larger, 2.3 cfm, with
a 5 gal. tank minimum. If the compressor is not connected properly or
the pressure is turned off, the DualAir Fusion will warn you with this icon.
