Addendum to Manual "Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions"
In regards to your inquiry regarding the wording of the Installation of the X-Series press
and the exhaust ducting instructions. Our manuals are prepared for our network of
distribution in more than 80 countries. When the manuals are describing various ways
and methods we understand that all countries are different and in turn we state that "It is
compulsory for exhaust ducts to be installed by an authorized installation company, and
such installations must conform to the existing laws in the country or area where the
machine is used".
Proper sized exhaust ducts are essential for proper operation. All elbows should be
sweep type, if possible. Exhaust ducts should be assembled so the interior surfaces are
smooth, so joints do not permit the accumulation of lint. DO NOT use plastic, thin foil or
type B flexible ducts as rigid metal ducts are recommended. DO NOT use sheet metal
screws or fasteners on exhaust pipe joints which extend into the duct and catch lint. Use
of duct tape or pop rivets on all seams and joints is recommended, if allowed by local
codes.
The exhaust ducting needs to be installed in an upwards angle, indicating that when
ducting in a horizontal direction it should have a minimum upward slope of 3% to
eliminate any moisture collection in duct work. Where the exhaust duct pierces a
combustible wall or ceiling, the opening must be sized per local codes the space around
the duct may be sealed with noncombustible material.
The duct should be designed so the static back pressure measured 500mm (20 inches)
from the exhaust outlet does not exceed the maximum allowable pressure specified in
section 4.7 Exhaust ducting. Static back pressure must be measured with unit operating
in heat mode.
When ducting exceeds the maximum allowable length 4.5m (16 feet) the diameter of a
round duct must be increased by 10% for the next (20 feet). For all applications past
these references, consult a local HVAC specialist.
Consult your local building code for regulations which may also apply.
Ironer Start-up Sheet
III. IRONER CHECKS
_ok— Ensure facility is not using Softener in wash cycles for Ironer linen.
_ok Adjust the temperature for the fabric and dampness level of the material to be
ironed.
_NA_ Because of a wax coating on the heat roll the first ironing material should be old
worn material.
_ok_ Place the linen flat on the input tray and allow it to be pulled into the finisher by
the
feed ribbons.
_ok_ Make sure that the sample linen comes out completely dry and with a perfect
sheen. If it doesn't, either increase the temperature or reduce the ironing speed.
IV. STAFF ORIENTATION
_ok— Instruct the facility staff on the safeties features and ways to stop the machine.
_ok— Show the staff on how to adjust the speed and temperature.

wax
cloth. (if applicable).
_ok_Advise the facility on end of day maintenance tasks.
V. IRONER MAINTENANCE AND MANUALS
_ok Preventative Maintenance Manual given to supervisor and explained.
ok_ Check if Operational and Instructional Manuals are in the possession of the
facility.
The following are discrepancies with the manufacturer's installation manual that need to
be corrected, to avoid the possible voiding of the warranty.
