Inspect the temperature pick up sled and
the cylinder. Remove debris if present.
Make sure the temperature pick up sled is in
full contact with the ironing cylinder.
At shut down, wipe machine down with a
mild cleaning agent and vacuum or sweep
up any lint that has accumulated. Lint is
highly flammable!
Inspect safety labels and replace any that
are damaged, worn, or illegible.
Inspect the guide ribbons (guide tape) for
damaged or missing ribbons. Replace as
necessary.
Inspect feed belts for proper tension. There
should be no slippage as the ironer runs.
Do not over tighten the feed belts, as this
will cause premature wear.
Inspect the return belts for proper tension.
Return belts tend to elongate after initial
startup and wear in.
Inspect the drive chain and gears.
Inspect the compression roll and ensure that
the pressure is correct. The compression
roll should only slightly touch the ironing
cylinder and not exert too much pressure.
For steam models, inspect the rotary steam
joint for leaks. If a leak is noted, a repair kit
is available. Contact B&C Technologies for
information.

Grease all bearings with high temperature
grease. DO NOT mix different grease types.
