What safeguards should you follow when using an Expression® Combination Vacuum Press?
| Please read the entire manual and fully understand the proper operating procedures before using your press.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS - Place the vacuum press on either an Expression® Combination Vacuum Press Floor Stand or a sturdy, flat, level surface and ensure the feet and hinges are properly adjusted. The press should not be located in the direct path of air conditioning vents or room cooling.
- Keep the vent cloth positioned so that it covers the vacuum manifolds (located in the rear corners of the press) and does not extend across the edge of the rubber diaphragm. Failure to do so will result in temporary loss of vacuum.
- Place all materials inside the press so that they fit into the recessed chamber in the base. If any materials extend across the edge of the rubber diaphragm, they will prevent a seal and cause either low vacuum or no vacuum at all.
- Foreign objects such as knives, tools, rulers, paper clips and markers should be kept out of the press and away from the press opening at all times. Never use an exposed blade to cut materials in the press. A slice or puncture in the rubber diaphragm will result in loss of vacuum.
- Do not stack boards in the press. Placing a smaller board on top of the larger may cause lines or dents in the aluminum platen.
- Allow the vacuum level to drop before opening the press.
- Turn the Power Breaker OFF and keep the press in the closed position when not in use. Disconnect the power supply before cleaning or replacing parts.
- High-pressure gas springs make opening and closing the press easier. If they are to be removed, the top MUST be held in the fully opened position for safety and to prevent damage.
Contact your authorized D&K dealer or D&K Technical Service in the event the press needs service for parts not covered in the Owner' s Manual.
