Safety Instructions
When using your heat press,
basic precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
Read all instructions.
1.
Use heat press only for its intended use.
2.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the heat press in water or other liquids.
3.
Never pull cord to disconnect from outlet, instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
4.
Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces, allow heat press to cool completely before storing.
5.
Do not operate heat press with a damaged cord, or if the equipment has been dropped or
6.
damaged. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the heat
press, take it to a qualified service person for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly or
repair could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when the equipment is used.
Close supervision is necessary for any heat press being used by or near children. Do not leave
7.
equipment unattended while connected.
Burns can occur when touching hot metal parts.
8.
To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate other high voltage equipment on the same
9.
circuit.
If an extension cord is necessary, then a 20 amperage rated cord should be used. Cords rated for
10.
less amperage may overheat, care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or
tripped over.

Connecting the System
CONNECT THE POWER CORD
1.
1.1
Connect the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet with a sufficient amperage rating.
VOLTAGE:
120 Volt - The MAXX™ Press Digital Clam requires a full 20 amp grounded circuit for 120 volt operation.
240 Volt - The MAXX™ Press Digital Clam requires a full 10 amp grounded circuit for 240 volt operation.
EXTENSION CORDS: If used, should be as short as possible and not less than 12 gauge.
Heavy duty cords are recommended.
CIRCUITS: that have less than 15 amps or that have other high demand equipment or heat presses
plugged in should not be used.
Work area must be kept clean, tidy and free of
obstructions.
Power supply cord must be disconnected before
cleaning or servicing press.
NOTE: If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid hazard. Use HSJ type, rated 250 V - 10 AMP for replacement.
CAUTION: Failure to follow these instructions will cause:
1. Erratic controller functions. 2. Inaccurate displays and slow heat-up. 3. The circuit breaker to disengage.
