Initial Startup
Before operating the ironer, check the following:
1. Check that the machine is level and in a stable position on the floor. The machine should not
rock or move in any way.
2. Ensure that all electrical, gas/steam, and exhaust connections are made and leak free.
3. Check that the ironer is correctly grounded according to the earlier listed specifications (see
page 8).
4. Remove all packaging and protective shipping materials. Discard these items - do not store
them near the ironer.
5. Inspect the thermostat sled assembly and make sure it is in full contact with the ironing
cylinder, and is free of lint and debris.
6. Turn the heating control to the OFF position, and the speed control to minimum (fully
counter-clockwise).
7. Apply power to the machine. Before doing this, double check that the supply voltage matches
the information on the serial sticker of the ironer.
8. Press the green START button.
9. Double check that the exhaust fan is rotating in the direction indicated on the blower housing.
Additional information can be found on page 17.
10. Make sure the feeding belts are acting to pull linen into the machine (belts traveling towards
the heated cylinder)
