Installation
1. Connect air supply to 1/8” NPT inlet located in back of the Air Filter / Regulator that is
attached to the right side of the machine.
2. Plug in electrical cord to properly fused and grounded receptacle.
Operation
1. Set Air Regulator at required gauge pressure: 25 PSI minimum / 120 PSI maximum. To
adjust regulator, pull up and turn black knob. Clockwise increases pressure, counter-
clockwise decreases pressure. When pressure is set, push down black knob to lock. See
table A-1 to convert gauge pressure to total interplaten pressure and pounds of
pressure per square inch on platen surface.
2. Check Air Filter Bowl located beneath Air Regulator and Gauge. If water is visible in
bowl, drain moisture by turning shaft, located on the bottom of the bowl, counter-
clockwise.
3. Flip power switch located on lower left side of machine to “ON”. Green light on control
panel indicates power is “ON”.
4. Set top and bottom platen temperature controls located on right side of control panel
to desired setting. Allow 10 minutes for platens to heat up. While platens are heating,
their corresponding red light on the control panel will remain on. When platens reach
desired temperature the red light will turn off momentarily. As the temperature
controllers phase on and off to maintain desired platen temperature, the red lights will
phase on and off also. Platen heat can be turned off individually by turning knob
counter-clockwise until it clicks.
5. Set Timer Control located on lower left of control panel to desired cycle dwell time. This
time setting will repeat each press cycle until changed.

6. To actuate press, depress both black pushbuttons labeled “Start Cycle” located on the
sides of the machine simultaneously. When press cycle is in progress, the amber light
on the control panel will turn on and remain on for all but the last two seconds of the
timing cycle. At that time the amber light will go into a blinking mode to alert the
operator that the press cycle is nearly complete.
7. To immediately open the press, push the red “Emergency Release” pushbutton located
on the upper left side of the control panel. Also, the press should open immediately if
the power switch is turned “OFF” or if the machine power cord is unplugged.
