2.0 Pre-use Inspection Checklist Check Y N N/A

1 Is the power cord free of frays and damage?

2 Do you know where the emergency stop feature is located (button/switch/cord)? The press has an attachment plug and receptacle (plug/socket combination) and so it may be used to disable the machine in the event of an emergency.

3 Are flammable/combustible materials removed from the immediate work area?

4 Is the area around the dry mounting press free of slip/trip hazards?

5 Has the debris/material from previous use been removed?

6 Is the surface area of the heater platen free of defects?

7 Do the arm handle and the upper heat platen move freely without obstruction?

8 Is the material/fabric to be pressed ready?

9 Has the clamping arm pressure been adjusted? (This will allow you to easily move the clamping arm up and down-the arm should be at 45-degree angle).

10 Has the temperature (150F to 350 F) and the timer been set?

11 Is the sponge pad in place over the bottom heat platen?

3.2 Equipment Specific Safe Operating Procedure (SOP)

1. Before using the press

Pict

ure

1

a) Plug in the machine and turn on the main power switch. b) Ensure the press is in the closed (but not locked position). c) Set the dial to the desired temperature (see picture 1). Note: It will take

about 30 minutes for the heat press to warm up. d) Do not leave the heat press unattended. e) Do not touch the press or stand in close proximity. It will become very hot. f) Notify individuals around you that the machine is on. g) Danger-hot surface! To avoid a burn hazard, don’t let bare skin come in

contact with heating plates.

2. Using the press

Pict

ure

2

a) Stand to the front of the press to easily access the arm handle. b) Open the top heat platen. c) Place your material to be pressed on the lower heat platen. d) Grab the center of the handle firmly and bring down the top heat element

and clamp it into position (see picture 2). e) Ensure nothing else gets caught in the press. f) Lock the press and leave the assembly in the press to heat the material. g) Do not touch the press during this time period. h) Stay at your work station and do not leave the press unattended until you

are done.

3. After using the press

Pict

ure

3

a) When the material has been heated, release the clamping arm and slowly move it to its uppermost position.

b) Avoid rapid opening of the heat press to prevent pulling a muscle (of the arm or shoulder).

c) Carefully remove the material and place it on a flat surface to let it cool. d) Handle hot objects and materials with care. e) Turn off the press and clean after yourself. f) Leave the laminating press in a closed (but not locked) position when not in

use. (see picture 3).

5.0 Document Control

DAILY ✔

Ensure the press is placed on a sturdy, flat, level table in a clean work area.

Ensure the press is accessible from all sides.

Ensure the area around the press is free of slip/trip hazards.

Keep the surface of the heater platen clean. Use normal cleaning solutions to fully clean the platens.

Ensure all controls are working (e.g temperature and machine timer).

Ensure the pressure knob is working properly and is adjusted at 45 degree angle (adjust the screw

clockwise to lower the lever arms and decrease pressure, or turn it counter-clockwise to raise the lever

arms and increase the pressure).

Ensure the press handles and top heat platen moves freely without obstruction.

Ensure “Warning-Burn Hazard” or “Hot! Use Caution” labels are placed in conspicuous locations to alert

personnel of the thermal hazard(s).

WEEKLY ✔

Ensure the machine is working in good condition and gives off adequate heat.

Disconnect and wipe down entire machine with damp sponge only once the machine has cooled and is

unplugged.

Inspect the sponge pad. If the pad shows any areas of soft or ‘dead’ spots it should be replaced. Replace

the sponge pad as necessary when soiled or uneven.

MONTHLY ✔

Check the platen temperature using the temperature indicator strips to verify calibration of the thermostat

and thermometer settings. To recalibrate contact technical services.

Lubricate all pivot points with silicon dry lubricated spray.

Inspect the wire and plug for any damage. Ensure there are no bends or crimps in the cord.

Remove and repair damaged electrical equipment.

ANNUALLY ✔

Check press to ensure it is in good working condition.

Ensure appropriate power supply is being discharged to the heat platens (standard is 115 volts or 1350

Watts current).

DAILY ✔ Ensure the mat cutter is secured on the table. Ensure the blade depth is adjusted according to the thickness of the mat. Too much blade depth can cut through the backing sheet. Test and adjust the blade depth accordingly.

Ensure that the area around the mat cutter is free of slip/trip hazards. Ensure that the debris/material from previous operations are removed. Ensure that all tools/wrenches are removed from the mat cutter table. Ensure the blade is properly installed into the blade holder. Ensure that the blade is free of defects and dullness; replace if necessary. Replace the backing sheet if it is worn. WEEKLY ✔ Ensure the mat guide rails are parallel. Ensure the squaring arms are adjusted properly. MONTHLY ✔ Clean the guide rail with an evaporating solvent. Do not lubricate the guide rail, as the substance will soften the guides on the cutting heads causing them to bind on the guide rail.

ANNUALLY ✔ Check that all nuts, bolts, screws and other fixings are properly tightened.

the light heads. c) Push the “Ready/Push’ switch to dump power. d) Unplug the power cord from the outlet. Do not pull on the plug. e) Disconnect the light heads from power supply pack.



5.0 Document Control Any changes or updates to this document must be recorded and maintained.








DAILY ✔ Ensure that the power cords are free of frays and damage.

Ensure the strobe light pack is placed in a secure place.

Inspect the light cables, cords for any wear, cracks, separation between cable and plug.

Ensure the light head cables are not tightly coiled around the pack. Instead keep the coil diameter at least 10 inches. Coiling cables tightly stresses the internal wires and may lead to premature cable failure.

Inspect the connectors, plugs and sockets. Ensure they are free of dust, moisture and corrosion.

Inspect the light head, clean the dust and dirt deposits on the flash tube. Remove the reflector and clean the interior surface with a light solvent or soap and water.

WEEKLY ✔

Inspect the flash tubes. Replace them when necessary.

MONTHLY ✔

Ensure the strobe light is kept charged up. Flash it a few times; this will keep the equipment in top working condition.

Inspect the power supply pack and light head. Get the equipment checked to ensure it is in good working condition.

ANNUALLY ✔ Inspect entire equipment and perform maintenance as required.
