1. Check condition of buck padding. Padding

should be replaced if:

off valves. If press is equipped with a timer, close
electrical disconnect switch or circuit breakers.

is closed against buck.

4. Release CLOSE pushbuttons. Head should

remain closed.

Press Operation

One complete pressing operation is described in the
following steps.

Presses WITHOUT Timers or Presses
WITH Timer Set to OFF Position

1. Perform pre-operating services.

2. If press is equipped with a timer, place switch

(Item 4, Figure 2) in OFF position.

3. Dress garment on buck.

4. Simultaneously push and hold both CLOSE

pushbuttons (Items 1 and 6, Figure 2) until head
closes and pressing pressure is applied. Release
both pushbuttons.

NOTE: If either pushbutton is released BEFORE
pressing pressure is applied, head will return to a
fully OPEN position.

5. Once garment is sufficiently pressed, press

OPEN pushbutton (Item 5, Figure 2) to open
press.

6. Hang or fold pressed article as soon as possible to

preserve finish.

Presses With Timers ONLY

position.

3. Set time selector knob (Item 2, Figure 2) to

desired time.

pushbuttons (Items 1 and 6, Figure 2) until head
closes and pressing pressure is applied. Release
