Preparing the product for usage
Before starting the operation of the tool, the following steps must be carried out each time to ensure
that the tool works properly. Check the following points:
4.1
Transport
The transport / the relocation / the use of the device should be carried out by an appropriate lifting
appliance (regarding the minimum lifting force, please look at chapter “3.3 Technical data“). Prior to
this relocation, the device should be disconnected from the energy supply (electrical current and
compressed air).
The tool may only be transported in cooled-down condition and under observation of the generally
valid safety regulations.
Note:
When transporting, make sure that the heating presses are only transported or stored when they are
closed (This protects the heating surfaces best from damage). The filling of the pressure hose (0,5
bar is sufficient) avoids any unintentional opening of the press during the transport.
Warning
Make sure that the heating press is firmly locked in lifting.
In lifting and transporting the device, please handle particularly with care!
During the transport please do not keep staying under the floating load!
Lift the heating press only at the provided lifting points.
Attention
Do not lift the heating press at the hold-down bars!
Higher tilting danger owing to the irregular weight repartition!
4.2
Position
Heating presses and their components, in particular heating plates, must be only placed on surfaces
that can withstand maximum temperatures of 240°C. Otherwise damage can occur to materials that
are not heat resistant or they will present a fire risk. The surfaces must also be able to withstand the
static load from the weight of the heating presses.
Attention
Risk of burns! Make sure the heating press is always freely accessible and is not covered
up. Should the heating press be covered up, this will present a fire risk.
