Vertical vs. Horizontal Orientation 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 the vertical orientation first, and then move to the horizontal orientation if desired.
2.1 Vertical Orientation Setup Vertical Orientation Setup Vertically Oriented Pikes Peak Figure 2A Warning: HEAVY EQUIPMENT! Two people recommended for setting up the press vertically or horizontally. The vertical orientation requires the two triangular shaped legs. To change to the vertical orientation from the default horizontal orientation, carefully bring the two front legs off the edge of a table while ensuring the press will not fall forward.
2.2 Horizontal Orientation Setup Horizontal Orientation Setup Horizontally Oriented Pikes Peak Figure 2A Warning: HEAVY EQUIPMENT. Two people recommended for setting up the press vertically or horizontally. The horizontal orientation requires the two short rectangular legs. To change to the horizontal orientation from the vertical orientation, first lean the press slightly forward and have a friend unscrew the leveling feet.
