Applying the Graphic:
 +
# Place the material on the lower platen and press down on it for 2-3 seconds to remove any wrinkles. This is also a good opportunity to check the pressure by taking note of how difficult it is to pull down the lift handle. If the handle requires a firm pressure to click into place then no adjustment is needed, but if it easily closes or requires a large effort to close then the pressure should be adjusted using the pressure knob.
 +
# Orient the graphic on the material. Once it is pressed it cannot be moved so make sure it is in the correct position.
 +
# Close the heat press and wait until the timer expires.
 +
# Remove the material from the heat press.
 +
# Carefully pull off the heat transfer paper, making sure to keep a steep angle so that the graphic does not peel off (See Figure 2). This can be done while the material is hot or cold.
 +
# Reset the space by turning off the heat press, leaving it open, and wiping off any dust or other debris as needed.
