without being coated with paraffin wax, it may
become rusted.

steps.
1. Remove a couple return ribbons.
2. Sand the rusty area.
3. Reinstall return ribbons.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 and continue down the cylinder
until all rusty surfaces have been sanded.
IMPORTANT: To prevent rust from returning,
coat cylinder with paraffin wax.
Periodic Maintenance
Daily
Inspect (Before Start-Up)
Inspect the area between the thermostat holder and the
cylinder and clean area if debris is present. Refer to
Figure 25.
Inspect the thermostat holder and make sure it is
touching the cylinder. Refer to Figure 25.
Weekly
Inspect (Before Start-Up)
Inspect the safety labels on the finisher and replace
labels that are damaged, missing, or unreadable. Refer
to the Parts Manual for ordering information.
Remove top panel and inspect the guide ribbons.
Replace any missing ribbons. Refer to the Parts
Manual for ordering information. The ribbons must be
fitted loosely.
Every 200 Hours
Inspect (Before Start-Up)
Inspect the feeding ribbons for missing ribbons, and
replace any ribbons that are missing. Refer to the Parts
Manual for ordering information.
Inspect the feeding ribbons for the correct tension.
They must be lightly stretched and wrapped around the
feeding ribbon roller with no slippage. Refer to
Figure 22 and follow the procedures to adjust the
tension of the feeding ribbons.
Inspect the return ribbons for the correct tension. The
strips tend to lengthen slightly, especially during initial
usage. Refer to Figure 23 and follow the procedures to
adjust the tension on the return ribbons.
Inspect the press-roller drive chain (on the right side of
the machine) for the correct tension. The chain must
not vibrate as it may then come loose. Refer to
Figure 24 and follow the procedure to adjust the
tension of the press-roller drive chain.
Inspect all air connections for visual signs of leakage.
Tighten any loose connections and replace lines where
necessary. Refer to the Parts Manual for ordering
information.
Inspect the press-roller for the correct pressure. The
press-roller must slightly touch the ironing cylinder
without exerting too much pressure on the ironing
cylinder. Refer to Figure 24 and follow the procedures
to adjust the pressure of the press-roller.
Inspect the supporting rollers. There are four rollers
that support the heated roll. These are located at
bottom of heated roll, right and left side. Inspect for
wear, replace when necessary.
Clean
Clean the finisher’s exhaust system, including fans,
fan cage, left exhaust and right exhaust.
Clean the ventilation grids of the fan motors and
driving motors.
Clean the ironing cylinder. Make sure to remove any
detergent residue.
Clean the scrapers that guide the linen from the ironing
cylinder into the output tray. Refer to Figure 25.
Vacuum the entire ironer. Remove top, side and front
panels and remove any lint that may accumulate.
Grease
Grease the drive roller bearing with a high-
temperature grease while rotating the ironing cylinder
by hand.
Grease the motor chain and sprockets.
Grease the press-roller drive chain and sprockets.
Every 2000 Hours
Inspect (Before Start-Up)
Inspect the gas exhaust pipe and duct for debris (gas
models only). If debris is present, have the gas exhaust
system cleaned by a qualified service person.
Inspect the vapor exhaust pipe and duct for debris. If
debris is present, clean the vapor exhaust system.
Inspect and clean, if necessary, the burner tube. If
ports on the burner tube become clogged, the flame
will not be even along the entire length of the burner
tube.
