Tips on ironing
Tablecloths |
^ Avoid folds by ironing the middle first. |
^Place the tablecloth crossways so that the ends hang over to the left and right.
^Iron the middle section.
Napkins, hand towels
^Lay the item with the straight grain of the fabric to the feed board.
This will prevent it from loosing its shape and will be easier to fold.
Pass handkerchiefs diagonally through the rotary iron and, if necessary, fold them and then iron again.
^Please use the whole length of the roller.
Sheets and bedspreads
Sheets may be ironed like tablecloths, or if a lengthwise fold is acceptable, fold the sheet together lengthwise and iron it on both sides.
To accentuate embroidery and raised patterns on bedspreads, iron first in one direction and then in the other.
Pillow cases
^ Lay the pillowcase on the feeder plate, position under the heater plate and iron in one step.
If the open end has buttons, only pass it through the rotary iron if the buttons are heat resistant.
^Fold in half with unironed edges together and place over the left end of the roller with the ironed middle section hanging over the edge to prevent creasing. Then pass both sides of the the non ironed sections through the rotary iron.
