Before ironing

Testing the finger guard

The finger guard is a safety feature and should be checked each time the rotary iron is used.

￿With the rotary iron turned on, press the foot pedal down.

The heater plate comes down onto the rotating roller.

￿If you lift the finger guard now, the roller stops rotating and the heater plate rises.

This shows that the finger guard is working.

￿Let go of the finger guard and remove your foot from the foot pedal.

￿Press the foot pedal down again.

The heater plate lowers and the roller rotates.

Please note:

Any unevenness in the ironing cover will smooth itself out after 3 hours of use.

When using a new machine, if delicate laundry is not properly pulled into the rotary iron continue ironing. This is usually solved after 5-10 minutes of ironing.

If a new ironing cover is used, wash the cloth at a high temperature (140°F/ 60°C) to achieve an optimal pull-in of the laundry.
