GETTING STARTED

SETTING UP
1 Carefully remove the 3030 from the delivery box.
KEEP THE BOX AND PACKAGING!
You will need it for return-to-base servicing and repairs.
2 Place the 3030 on a solid, level surface at a
comfortable working height.
3 Plug the 13 amp fused plug in to a 240V power supply.
4 Switch on at rear of machine base.
5 The 3030's display shows the temperature (PIC A)
of the heated plate and the target temperature.
You will note that the head temperature will now start to
rise toward the target. Once at the target temperature the
machine will regulate itself and keep the head temperature
at +/- 5 O C of the target temperature. When the temperature
is out of operating temperature range the light will display
red and turns green once the machine is within range. Only
commence a heatsealing process when the light is green.
If the light is red when a heatsealing cycle is started the
warning buzzer will sound and the display will read
'FAULT: WAIT NOT WITHIN BAND'
6 CARE - the heatsealing head will become hot.
The base will also become hot with use.
7 The various parameters i.e. temperature, pressure and
length of heatsealing time recommended for various J&A
heatseal products are given on pages 6 & 7.To change the
various parameters on the 3030, see page 3.
HEATSEALING
1 Practice on some scrap garments or cloth before tackling
something of value! Some handy practical advice is given
on pages 4 & 5 and if you are new to heatsealing we
recommend familiarising yourself with this first.
2 Swing the heatsealing head out of the way (PIC B)
to give a clear view of the working area.
3 Check the display is showing the correct parameters for the
type of decoration and change if necessary - see No5 above.
4 Place the garment/item to be decorated over the base pad
(PIC C)
5 Carefully position the badge or transfer on the garment.
6 Grip handle and swing head back across as far as it will
go so that it lines up with the base pad.
7 Pull the handle down as far as it will go. It will remain 'locked'
in this position throughout the heatsealing dwell time and does
not need to be held down. You can however stop the
heatsealing at any time during the dwell period by simply
lifting the handle up.
8 When the dwell period is complete a buzzer sounds. Lift the
handle and swing the heatsealing head out of the way.
During the heatsealing process it is possible to see how
many seconds of the dwell time remain by selecting the
'count down' read-out. (see page 3)
9 CARE
AFTER HEATSEALING, THE BASE PAD
AND GARMENT WILL BE HOT
10 If the applied decoration is a transfer, peel away the transfer
release paper. Check with page 6 to see if this needs
doing straight away or when the garment and decoration
have cooled.
