6.2 Trykjustering

The pressure adjustment knob (red knob on top) allows you to fine-tune the pressing force. Turn clockwise to increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure. Adjust pressure based on the thickness of your material and transfer type. A firm, even pressure is crucial for successful transfers.

6.3 360° drejefunktion

The heating platen is equipped with a 360-degree swivel function. This allows you to rotate the heating element away from the lower platen, providing a safer and more convenient workspace for placing and arranging your materials and designs without direct contact with the hot platen.

6.4 Heat Distribution

The machine features two heating tubes within the platen to ensure even heat distribution across the entire 38x38 cm surface. This uniform heating is essential for consistent and high-quality transfers on various materials like chemical fibers, ceramics, and cotton.
