====Overview====
The operation of the mug press is pretty simple. First, select a heating element that fits your glass or mug and fasten it into place using the black screws. There is no formula for selecting the correct element other than putting your mug inside and making sure it fits snug. Adjust the pressure using the large black knobs so that there is a firm, even pressure over the mug. Next, set the time and temperature. Feel free to experiment with different values as there is not an exact formula, but for the heat transfer vinyl that is commonly used on the vinyl printer anywhere between 300°F and 325°F for 15 seconds works well. If the graphic begins to peel off when removing the paper then the time should be increased and if the graphic colors change when being applied the temperature should be decreased. Also it is important to use the Teflon sheets found in the t shirt heat press to prevent sticking to the heating element if using the plastic transfer paper. After the time and temperature are set place the mug in the element and clamp down. The timer will beep once the transfer is complete. For complete details see the general procedure.

====Demonstration====
A mug or glass is required in order to perform a transfer on this machine which makes it difficult to perform simple test or demonstration transfers. Consequently, the demonstration will be pressing a graphic of choice onto a mug or glass.
