Operation Table 1 (Continued) Controls or Indicators Function Position or Indication 15. Sleeve extender rods Clamp cuffs and extend sleeves outward for high quality finish. Extend shirt sleeves via foot pedal (item 11). Retract sleeve extender arms via sleeve extender button (item 12). 16. Collar clamp Holds shirt collar in place on buck (refer to item 10). Open and close clamp with foot pedal (item 10). 17. Safety bars Exhausts entire air system except air to collar clamp air cylinder.
Operation Resetting Air Circuit Pressing Short Sleeve Shirts The air circuit must be reset before press can be used. Resetting is required if: Sleeve extender arms are not used when a short sleeve shirt is dressed on the buck. The operator should turn the steam timer selector switch to the off position to stop live steam and sleeve blower air through sleeve armhole. ● Press has been shut down. ● Any safety bar or red emergency stop button has been activated. ● Gauge indicates 0 air pressure.
Operation Operating Instructions These instructions will provide the best shirt pressing quality and prolong padding life. Pre-Operating Services Perform the following services daily before using the press: 1. Check condition of buck padding and air bags. Replace if: ● Cover is scorched or torn. ● Air bags have holes. ● Flannel is hard or brittle (not springy). WARNING To avoid possible serious injury NEVER use press unless BOTH safety bars are working properly. W375 8. Reset air to press.
Operation Post-Operating Services Cleaning Press Heads Perform the following services after the final operation of the day or anytime press will be idle for an extended period of time: Press heads require cleaning if: 1. Turn off steam to buck sleeve openings by pressing the steam Timer Selector switch to the off position. 2. Mist air bags with water and send unloaded buck into pressing cabinet (this will prolong the life of the air bag and eliminate formation of wrinkles in air bags). Repeat 4 times.
Operation CSBBYMV Operation Sequence 5. Unload CUCC. Hang shirt 2 on garment hook. Single Operator. Refer to Figure 4. 6. Load shirt 3 from damp box onto CUCC. A typical single operator shirt station consists of: 7. Remove shirt 1 from buck. Place on collar post. Form collar and button. Leave shirt on collar post to cure. ● One CSBBYMV sleeve, bosom, body and yoke press ● One collar and cuff press (CUCC) ● One collar post ● One damp box 8. Load shirt 2 from garment hook onto buck. 9.
Operation Buck Dressing Instructions The steps listed below outline the procedure for dressing a shirt on the buck. 1. Grasp shirt by neck band with label side facing you. Turn to buck and swing the right arm of shirt over the buck (at the same time you are guiding the left side so the buck fills shirt armhole). Refer to Figure 5. NOTE: This action should be as natural as putting on your own shirt. Never lift the shirt over the buck (this would result in unnecessary fatigue). 4.
Operation 6. Grasp one sleeve with gusset facing you. Overlap gusset of cuff as if you are going to button cuff so that air does not escape gusset. The sleeve end is now closed (do not button). Refer to Figure 9. NOTE: Dress sleeve into clamp at CUFF SEAM. Do NOT place cuff in clamp. Loading cuff into clamp will pinch or crease the cuff. A guide on each clamp will cause you to meet resistance if cuff is accidentally loaded. Refer to Figure 11. CAB478N Figure 11 CAB421N Figure 9 7.
Operation 8. Press the left foot pedal to extend the sleeves and turn the buck vacuum on. 9. Notice a natural “A” at shirt’s placket. The gap at the bottom is related to shirt size. The larger shirts will have a smaller gap. Refer to Figure 13. CAB423N CORRECT Figure 14 11. With thumb and first finger of both hands, grasp the bottom of the placket and side seam at the left side of the shirt. Gently pull downward. Pull the placket downward in the direction of the natural “A.
Operation 13. Spray with water gun if necessary. Refer to Figure 15. CAB424N Figure 15 14. If necessary, move your hand in an upward direction over the pocket to remove any air trapped inside. Refer to Figure 16. CAB426N Figure 17 17. Press right foot pedal to release collar clamp. Lift right side of shirt. Move right shoulder clear of buck with a slight upward then backward motion of your hand. Do not swing your right arm over the buck (that would be unnecessary motion). Refer to Figure 18.
Operation 18. Using your left hand, grasp the left sleeve just next to the yoke. Pull the shirt to your left and off the buck. As the right side of shirt clears the buck, position the fingers of your right hand so they catch the left side of shirt and slide to the right of the yoke. This opens the shirt and supports it so it can easily drape over collar form. Refer to Figure 19.
Operation Padding Padding is very important to garment quality. Air bags which are worn or made from improper material cannot give good results. Bag and cover assemblies purchased from different suppliers can affect shirt quality. Thirty ounce (30 oz.) flannel padding (manufactured from reprocessed nylon) is originally provided with the press. It is considered to be the best, most economical padding available.
Operation Quality Troubleshooting 5 4 5 1 1 7 3 7 3 4 2 6 SHIRT QUALITY CAB263N CAB263N Figure 20 Refer to Figure 20. Trouble Damp patches on sleeve (item 1) Placket bowing at the button strips (item 2) Probable Cause Solution 1. Cycle time too short. Increase Timer. 2. Boiler pressure too low. Adjust pressure. 3. Faulty trap or check valve in steam return line from condensate tank. Clean, repair or replace faulty trap or check valve. 4.
Operation Table 2 (Continued) Trouble Rough dry damp patches on sides (item 3) Damp patches on front or back of garment, OR pin wrinkles or rough dry spots around front button strip (items 2 and 4) Rough, dry in yoke area (item 5) Probable Cause Solution 1. Pressing cycle too short. Increase pressing time. 2. Shirt moisture retention is over 50%. Reduce moisture retention by increasing extract time or speed or by increasing water temperature of final rinse. 3. Shirt moisture retention is under 40%.
Operation Table 2 (Continued) Trouble Middle pleat is too long (extends down entire back of shirt) (item 6) Shirt side pleat is distorted or crease is pressed into shirt (item 7) 22 Probable Cause Solution 1. Holes in air bag do not allow air bags to fill out shirt. Replace bag and cover assembly on buck. 2. Collapsed hoses in blower system restrict airflow to air bags. Check ALL hoses in blower air system. Check for collapsed inner wall by removing hose from machine.
Maintenance General This section contains information and instructions required to perform periodic inspections and lubricate the press.
Maintenance Periodic Inspections Timer Intervals Daily or as required Operation or Inspection Corrective Action Visually inspect the air intake filters. Replace when dirty. They are throwaway-type filters but can be cleaned once before discarding. Visually inspect intake air screen. Remove lint from screen. NOTE: Do not operate blowers unless air filters are installed. Visually inspect the sight glass in the air If moisture and oil are collecting in the line filter at the inlet.
Maintenance Cleaning Air Filter Cleaning Steam Strainer Air filters remove foreign matter and condensate from supply air as it passes through filter. The frequency at which the filter baffle plate and filter element should be cleaned depends upon the amount of condensate and foreign matter in the supply air. The condensate level should not raise above the baffle. That is a sign of a faulty auto-drain which would need to be cleaned, replaced or repaired. Strainer removes foreign matter from steam.
Maintenance Lubrication WARNING To avoid possible serious injury: • ALWAYS close air supply line shut-off valve AND lock-out air service BEFORE performing lubrication services. W437 Monthly Lubrication Refer to Figure 21, Figure 22 and Table 4 for lubrication points.
