4. Safety measures and warnings
4.1 SAFETY
Each DECO-PRINT machine is equipped with a Safety Guard feature for the protection of the
operator. The Safety Guard is activated in two ways:
1. The metal bar senses the touch of your hand.
2. There are switches that sense any obstruction.
Once the safety guard is activated, the downward movement of the print will be interrupted
and the “CLEAR” button must be pressed before the next print cycle. If an obstruction is met
before this point, the power print cycle will not occur.
ectrical power cord must always be plugged into a properly grounded outlet.
Safety warnings:
• THE USE OF POWER STRIPS AND EXTENTION CORDS IS NOT RECOMMENDED
• CAUTION: PRESSURE READING ON AIR GAUGE MUST NOT EXCEED 100 PSI (7.0 BAR)
• CAUTION: THE PRINTING HEAD AND PLATE MAY REACH TEMPERATURES AS HIGH AS
550°F (288°C) DURING NORMAL OPERATION. ALWAYS KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF THE
PRINTING HEAD WHEN OPERATING MACHINE.
• IF POWER IS ON, DO NOT LEAVE MACHINE UNATTENDED. IF A LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE
OCCURS, AND IF A GARMENT IS RESTING ON THE PLATEN, THE HEAD CAN LOWER AND
COULD CAUSE A FIRE. A CHECK VALVE IS BUILT INTO THE MACHINE TO PREVENT THIS,
BUT WITH A LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE, THE HEAD WILL COME DOWN AT SOME POINT.
• WARNING: BEFORE OPERATING THE MACHINE, MAKE SURE ALL COVERS ARE IN PLACE,
AND KEEP LOOSE JEWELRY AND CLOTHING CLEAR OF THE MACHINE DURING OPERA-
TION.
• BEFORE SERVICING THE MACHINE, UNPLUG THE ELECTRICAL CORD, DISCONNECT THE
AIR SUPPLY, AND LET THE PRINTING HEAD COOL DOWN TO ROOM TEMPERATURE
• CLEAN MACHINE PARTS WITH NON-FLAMMABLE CLEANING FLUIDS ONLY.
