4.1.2 Operating Tips
Leave the ironer at a set working temperature and adjust the speed so that your goods come out
just dry. Any time you are not running the ironer you should raise the rolls (On the right panel
set the Roll switches to up). This extends the life of the roll padding. Feed sheets and large items
in the center of the ironer. With small pieces its best to spread them out across the ironer, however
with a chest ironer you can safely run them in lanes.

2. On the right panel, set all roll switches to up, set the blower switch to off
3. Push the red off button.

a safe temperature. The pump will then turn off automatically.
