4. Check the condition of the waxing cloth.
If the waxing cloth feels:
• Sti when it is cool, it is suciently
waxed. Skip to Step 6.
• Limp when it is cool, more wax is
needed. Go to the next step.
CAUTION
Abrasive chest type cleaners,
pads, and paste wax can
permanently damage the
ironing cylinder and return
ribbons, and void the
factory warranty.
Never sprinkle wax directly
on ribbons, compression roll,
or ironing cylinder. This will
shorten the expected life of
the return ribbons.
DO NOT over wax. The return
ribbon drive roll cover will
become smooth and the
return ribbons will slip.
NOTE: If waxing a chrome
ironing cylinder, do not add
additional wax.
5. Use a waxing cloth the width of the ironer
and 90” (230 cm) long:
a) Make a fold in the middle of the piece
but do not complete the fold.
b) On the inside section of the sheet, ap-
ply powdered wax, using from 1/4 to
1/2 lb (115-230 g). Use only Chicago
Dryer Company powdered wax (or
pure Karagami equivalent).
c) Spread the wax in a thin, uniform layer.
d) Complete the fold, laying the unwaxed
portion over the waxed portion.
WARNING
The waxing cloth will be hot
when it comes out of the unit
and may burn your hands.
Protect your hands.
6. Holding the waxing cloth tight from side
to side, feed the folded end into the ironer.
• While feeding, lift the cloth o of the
feed ribbons to keep them as wax free
as possible.
• Also hold the trailing edge of the wax-
ing cloth so wax does not drop onto the
canvas feed ribbons.
• Run it through the ironer two or three
times.
