Note for users of all Epson desktop printers.

Caution: Never re-install a used black, colour or cleaning cartridge from Lyson as this will introduce air into the printer system causing nozzles to temporarily fail. If this is done accidentally leave the printer for 24 hours so that the air can dissipate naturally. (This excludes Stylus Pro models)

NB. If your Epson printer has not been used before we recommend running with

Epson ink for a few days before changing to Lyson Inks.

To change an ink set follow this procedure.

1. Remove the existing cartridge set:

-If the cartridges are empty ( the red indicator lights are on for the black and colour cartridges) hold each cartridge clean button down for 3 seconds and replace the cartridges with cleaning cartridges.

-If the cartridges are not empty, press and hold the two cartridge clean buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The black cartridge

then moves into a position where it can be replaced. Remove the cartridge and insert a black cleaning cartridge . Then press the colour cartridge clean button. The colour cartridge then moves into a position where it can be replaced. Remove the colour cartridge and insert a colour cleaning cartridge.

2. Press the form feed button.

The printer primes itself with cleaning fluid. This process takes around 3 minutes.

3. Go to the “UTILITIES” section of the print driver on your computer. Select “NOZZLE CHECK”.

The printer prints a pattern of lines..These lines should be quite faint as they have been printed with cleaning fluid.

4. Select “CLEAN” and then “CONFIRM”

After the printer has printed a second pattern of lines repeat steps 1 and 2, replacing the cleaning cartridges with the new ink set. The printer primes itself with the new ink set.

5. Go to the “UTILITIES” section of the print driver and select “NOZZLE CHECK” and then “CLEAN” and then “CONFIRM”.

The printer is now running with your new ink set. If any nozzles are still not printing this may be because of trapped air introduced during the cartridge changeover procedure. In this case allow the printer to stand for 2 hours before repeating a nozzle check. If any nozzles are still not printing perform one head clean and allow the printer to stand for a further hour. Repeat if necessary.

860, 1160 specifications

The Lyson 1160 and 860 are two of the most advanced beekeeping technologies available today, designed to enhance honey extraction efficiency and improve the overall beekeeping experience. These modern honey extractors are engineered with the needs of professional beekeepers in mind, marrying traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art innovations.

Both models feature a robust stainless-steel construction, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion, thus providing a long lifespan. This is crucial for maintaining hygiene, as beekeeping equipment must be easily cleanable to safeguard honey quality.

One standout characteristic of the Lyson 1160 is its impressive capacity, allowing beekeepers to extract honey from up to 18 frames simultaneously, depending on the configuration. The Lyson 860, while slightly smaller, still offers a generous capacity designed to optimize honey extraction processes. This makes both models suitable for commercial operations, where time and efficiency are critical.

The advanced extraction technology in both models utilizes a radial design, allowing for a gentle, efficient extraction process that minimizes damage to the delicate honeycomb. The centrifugal force generated during the extraction efficiently draws honey from the cells without the need for excessive manual labor.

A key feature of the Lyson extractors is the user-friendly digital control panel, which allows beekeepers to easily adjust speed and extraction time. This level of control is essential for ensuring that the honey is extracted effectively without compromising the integrity of the comb or the quality of the honey.

Another important technology integrated into the Lyson 1160 and 860 is the ability to operate with low power consumption. Energy efficiency is a growing concern in today's agricultural practices, and these extractors can operate effectively without significant electrical input.

Moreover, both models come equipped with safety features, including automatic shut-off options and protective covers, ensuring safe operation during use. The sight glass integrated into the design allows beekeepers to monitor the extraction process in real time, providing reassurance and the ability to tweak settings as necessary.

In essence, the Lyson 1160 and 860 honey extractors represent a significant leap forward in beekeeping technology, combining capacity, efficiency, and user-friendly design. For beekeepers looking to modernize their operations, these models offer an ideal balance of functionality and ease of use, making them a valuable addition to any apiary.
