SET-UP AND OPERATION
TEMPERAT URE SETTINGS
• Select the film(s) that you will use on the top (and
bottom) of the images.
• Check which temperature setting is recommended
for your SEAL
®
Brands material (see literature
enclosed in your material box).
• Refer to the Control Panel Diagrams for
information on setting the temperature.
NOTE: If a process requires heat, turn ON the
heaters approximately 45 minutes before use to
ensure that the rollers are at the correct
operating temperature.
IMPORTANT! The main roller should be
down and turning to prevent uneven hot spots
on the roller. A stationary heated roller will
develop concentrated heat in one area, which
will damage the roller.
SHIM WHEEL SETTINGS
Whenever you mount onto a board, etc., it is important
to adjust the rollers to create a gap nearly equal to the
thickness of the board being used. This is done so that
anything passing between the rollers will receive the
right amount of pressure.

HOW TO SET THE SHIM WHEELS
• First, determine the thickness of the board that you
will use for mounting.
• You must first raise the rollers and then turn the
shim wheels until the desired measurement
corresponds with the thickness of board being used.
WARNING! Too much pressure can crush the
board being used and even damage the top and
bottom rollers. Normally, a press of .025”
(0.6mm) is sufficient.
