This is the actual temperature of the heat platen surface. Please note that the operating range of the controller is from 150°F to 550°F (65°C to 288°C). During the first heat up cycle of the press, the controller will display 150°F (65°C) until the heat platen temperature rises above that temperature.
- Page 6 The Digital Height/Pressure gauge is a helpful indicator of the current height of the top head as the operator adjusts the pressure. • To decrease the pressure, turn the pressure knob to the left, counterclockwise. • The top head will rise away from the lower table.
- Page 7 This heat conductive mat is included with the Digital Combo and is only used for tile and related surfaces, and requires an additional 35°F to be added to the temperature.

Because the heat platens are modular in their method of connection, one platen can be unplugged and another plugged in, in its place. The mechanical connection to the clamp is no more than a simple quick release pin.

The PRR menu item allows the user to define how sensitive the height gauge is for displaying purposes. This setting defines how quickly the pressure display will appear during normal operation. The lower the sensitivity setting, the less the amount of change is required when turning the pressure knob to cause the PRS display to appear during the default operating mode. -

There are only a few aspects of the machine that should be monitored to insure proper operation. • The clamp/linkage assembly is the greatest area of wear and friction on the press. - Page 17 The following information attempts to address the most probable mechanical and user issues with the press. Most issues with heat transfer presses are application related. That is, they have to do with the results of a particular transfer application. For technical support on problems having to do with the final results of a particular transfer paper or media, please contact the supplier of that transfer media.
