5.9 Releasing of the cylinder

In some conditions of humidity or static electricity, it may happen that the piece of linen being ironed winds around
the cylinder.
The cylinder can only rotate in one way; it is so, necessary in this precise case, to act on the machine.
1. Turn off the heating and stop the ironer.
2. Cut off the electrical supply by the main switch.
3. Remove the right lateral casing.
4. Unscrew and remove totally the knurled button (A) as well as the conical washer (B), the cylinder is now released.
5. Pull to you the piece of linen to unwind.
6. Make the cylinder turn slowly until seeing the threading of the knurled button.
7. Reassemble the conical washer (B) and the knurled button (A).
8. Reassemble the right lateral casing.
9. Rearm the main switch and start again the ironing.

6 Use recommendations

• Make sure that the fabric can be ironed, and check which temperature should be used.
• Take care with synthetic and printed fabrics as these can melt and stick to the tray.
• It is advisable to commence ironing with the most delicate fabrics finishing off with the most heat-resistant ones,
by progressively increasing the temperature with the thermostat button.
• When ironing small articles, use the entire width of the cylinder so that heat is evenly distributed, preventing wear
on only one side of the covering.
• Iron starched articles last, to prevent any eventual residue on the bed from damaging other items.
• Do not iron overly thick linen or covers.
• Do not iron non heat-resistant or overly voluminous buttons (round buttons, for example).
• Carefully inserting the articles to be ironed will improve results.
• Make sure that the width of the ironing does not exceed the useful width of the machine.
• When ironing small items, be sure to alternatively use the full width of the roller (and not simply the middle); this
prevents depressions from forming in the middle of the covering. This can effect the quality of the ironing (see fig-
ure below).
• When ironing is finished, let the cylinder turn for a few minutes to allow for the evaporation of any humidity ab-
sorbed during ironing.
• Let the bed move back before turning off the machine.
