Technical Specifications

1. Read all instructions

2. Use 3D Heat Press only for its intended purpose

3. To reduce the risk of electric shock do not expose the 3D Sublimation

Vacuum Heat Press to water or other liquids.

4. When finished with machine, turn unit off before disconnecting

the plug from the socket. Never pull the cord to disconnect from
power outlet. Instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

5. Do not allow power cord to touch hot surfaces. Please ensure the
3D Heat Press has cooled completely before putting away.

Operation Instructions

7. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt

to repair the 3D Heat Press. Please contact your reseller for
examination and repair (based on the terms of your warranty).
Incorrect reassembly or repair could cause a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons when the appliance is used.
Any attempt to repair or tamper with the unit will void warranty.

Highly Intelligent
Work without any key operation, just gently close the cover,
the machine will automatically aspirate, countdown and heat up.
When the work is completed, automatically deflated,
All you need is a simple process to place and remove products

User-Friendly

For first time use, the temperature and time set-up process is very easy

to understand and easy to learn.
Environmental Protection
Efficient activated carbon air filter is installed in the machine, effectively
to worry too much toxic and harmful gases generated in the transfer
process, transported to the outdoors through the long catheter to
ensure the health and safety of the operating personnel.

Multifunctional

The machine covers all the functions of the heat transfer machine,

which can transfer mug, glass, crystal, acrylic, plastic, wood, metal,

stone, cloth and so on .with various types of fixture, can do sublimation

transfer on different size and shape of mugs. Transfer large format,

delicate, clear, high color reproduction, far more than the traditional

heat transfer machine.

 Troubleshooting:

Q. Transfer Paper appears yellow after process?

A. Lower Temperature and/or Reduce Heating Time

Q. What if automatic operation failed, including air extraction,

suction and countdown?

A. Adjust the distance between the vacuum extracting plate and

the switch. Normally, the distance shall be at 3mm, magnet

strength will be weak if the distance is too far.

Q:The text appears very faint?

A:Lower Temperature and/or Reduce Heating Time

Q. Paper still stays same after process?

A. Use Higher Temperature and/or Increase Heating Time

Q:Colours do not appear good on Product?

A:Use Higher Temperature and/or Increase Heating Time

Q:Sometimes Get White Stains?

A:Use Higher Temperature and/or Increase Heating Time

Q. The Effect does not look good on certain textures?

A.Temperature and Time have to be changed accordingly

This will be vary based on a number of factors including:

- Paper Quality

- Printing Machine

- Product Texture

- Temperature Conditions

Q:Keep getting excess powder around your image?

A:Please ensure you have allowed sufficient time for your sunlimation
print to dry before putting it onto your material

Q: Machine switches off if I leave it alone for a long time?

A:This is intentional by design, the machine is set to switch off
automatically after 15 minutes making it safe and reliable

Q: The printing appears to be unclear?

A: 1) Check the Vacuum guage to see if the vacuum pressure

reaches 0.64mmhg. If the pressure fails to reach he value,

leakage can be assured. Check the vacuum extracting strip

to see if its well sealed.

2)
Check connections of pipe for looseness or leakage

Troubleshooting (Continued):

Q. What if abnormal sound occurs and the machine fails to run normally?

A. 1)
Open the cover of the rear power box and check if any

wind-up on the vacuum fan. If there is, unwire it.

2) Check if there is any water in the air filter. Water needs to be


emptied and the filter core will need to be replaced periodically.

Q. The Machine fails to heat and temperature does not rise?

A. Check if the heating switch has been turned on and the indicators
on the display are glistening. If not, turn on the switch.

Q. There is a big gap found between the set and real temperature.

A: 1) Overheating within 30 Degrees C is acceptable when the

metal heating pipes are working properly

2)
Check if the cooling fan beneath the circuit board works normally.

If there is any damage, the fan needs to be replaced.

3)
The machine is designed with double circuit for temperature control,

keeping the inner oven temperature below 210 Degrees C,

otherwise the machine will cease heating.
