TESTING
This press has been tested in the Cissell factory to determine that it is safe and in working order. Final adjustments must
be made to obtain the best results for your garments using your steam and vacuum in your environment.
The Cissell presses are manufactured and tested to the highest standards. The steam pressure vessels have been tested
with liquid to a pressure of 250 psi (17 bars). They have been tested for leaks with live steam at a pressure of 88 psi (6
bars).
On request, we can supply pressure certification and information regarding sizes and wall thickness of the vessel(s).
FOREWORD
Manual Foot Operated Presses
These modern presses are precision engineered to provide faster, easier operation than any other foot operated press. The
head is closed by hand and by foot operation of the central pedal. The head is opened by pressing down on the lever on
the right of the head steam valve. The head steam is hand lever operated while the buck steam and vacuum are foot pedal
operated. The improved leverage system and roller bearing pivot assures smoother, faster head operation and a quality
finish.

INSTALLING THE PRESS
1. Uncrate the press and remove the skid. Move the press into position.
2. Hold the head down and cut the twine that holds the head closed. Allow the head to
rise slowly to the open position.
3. The Lowboy bracket (PR356) has been installed on the table at the factory. Then assemble the iron rest
assembly (PR365, PR398 & PR401) to the shaft of PR356. (See Figure 1)

INSTALLING THE PRESS (Continued)
Steam and Vacuum Connections – (See Figure 2)
5. Connect a 3/8 inch steam supply line to the press at a recommended pressure of 88 psi
(6 bars). Use a reducing valve if needed to obtain the correct pressure. The press
uses one boiler horsepower (34.5 lb/h) of steam.
6. Connect a 3/8 inch steam return line to the press. Install a 1/2 inch steam trap suitable for
88 psi (6 bars) in the line.
7. Connect the vacuum using a 2 inch pipe to the vacuum supply. The vacuum supply should
be rated two presses or more. (Example: Cissell Dryset model 2D or larger).
