Description of the Model HS3E and HS4E Heat Seal Machines The HS3E and HS4E Heat Seal Machines are manually operated, and provide heat, time, and pressure required for the application of a wide variety of Thermopatch products including: mending materials, emblems, label tapes, and transfers.

Platen The Heat Seal Machines come standard with a 4”x5” platen. The platen can be raised or lowered to help create the best pressure for the actual thickness of the garment. Thermopatch also manufactures optional sizes of platens, which are ideal for smaller labels and allow the user to match the size of the platen to the size of the label.

Variable Temperature Set Point Each machine has a variable temperature set point depending on the type of material the label is to be installed on. The Temperature Range can be set from 69-446oF.

Power Saver Feature The HS3E and HS4E Heat Seal Machines have a “Power Saver” energy feature. The machine heater element will be de-energized after a preset time and cool down to room temperature. This will occur when the preset “Power Saver Time” has elapsed.

The HS3E or HS4E can be reactivated by lowering the Seal Arm Handle of the machine. Once the Seal Arm Handle is lowered into the “Locked” position, the machine will exit the “Power Saver Mode”. The Heater Element of the machine will become re-energized and increase in temperature to the preset “Power Saver Temperature”. Upon achieving the preset “Power Saver Temperature”, the Sealing Cycle Timer will begin counting down to zero seconds.

Manual Operation The HS3E machine is manually activated by lowering the Seal Arm Handle to a locked position. Upon completion of the Sealing Cycle, an alarm buzzer sounds signaling the operator to MANUALLY raise the Seal Arm Handle. The Lower Press Platen will now be open and the sealed article can be removed.

Automatic Operation The HS4E machine is manually activated by lowering the Seal Arm Handle to a locked position. Upon completion of the Sealing Cycle, the HS4E machine will AUTOMATICALLY raise the Seal Arm Handle (assistance from the operator is not necessary). The Lower Press Platen will now be open and the sealed article can be removed. The alarm buzzer sounding is a warning that the machine has failed to open normally.

Sealing Pressure Adjustment A pressure adjustment on the machine may be necessary. Normally, higher pressures will produce more effective heat seals. However, the use of excess pressure may force adhesive through the fabric with unsightly results and may result in excessive wear on the Lower Press Platen.

WARNING

The maximum height of the Lower Press Platen is 4 turns (8 clicks) up from the base of the machine. Exceeding the maximum height of the lower platen will result in excessive damage to the machine.

A label to indicate the direction in which to rotate (turn) the Lower Press Platen is mounted below the Lower Press Platen, as shown in Figure 4. To increase the inter-platen pressure, turn the Lower Pressure Platen counterclockwise. To decrease the inter-platen pressure, turn the Lower Pressure Platen clockwise.

Figure 4 — Lower Press Platen turn indicator

To adjust the inter-platen pressure, please follow the procedure below:

1. Turn the Lower Press Platen clockwise until it has bottomed out against the machine base.

2. Turn the Lower Press Platen counterclockwise until the first click is detected. This is the “zero pressure” set point.

3. To set the Lower Press Platen pressure to a selected Pressure Setting, count the number of “Clicks” by turning the Lower Press Platen counterclockwise, increasing the pressure to the desired set point.

Note: To set the Lower Press Platen pressure to a new pressure setting from the existing setting, repeat steps 2 and 3 above to obtain the new desired set point.

CAUTION!

Use of excessive pressure can cause the Seal Arm Handle to become locked in a closed position and will be difficult to open. Extreme pressure may result in severe damage to the machine. Contact

Thermopatch Customer Service immediately if the seal handle does not release.

Maintenance Teflon Cover

Clean the Teflon Cover often by wiping with a soft clean cloth. A non-flammable cleaner such as “EZ-Off”, part number DH-6873, may be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. NEVER USE A FLAMMABLE SOLVENT OR ABRASIVE CLEANER. To ensure the best heat-sealing results, replace the Teflon Cover whenever it becomes torn or too soiled to clean.

Procedure to replace Teflon Cover:

1. Switch the Heat Sealing machine to the “Off” position and allow the Heater Element to cool down to room temperature.

2. Gently peel the Teflon Cover from the Heater Element. It may be necessary to use a tool, such as a utility knife, to begin the peeling process. Be careful not to damage the surface of the Heater Element.

3. Clean off all of the old adhesive from the entire face of the Heater Element surface before applying a new Teflon Cover.

4. Apply the new Teflon Cover by removing the backing material from the Teflon material and applying the Teflon to the Heater Element. When applying the Teflon material to the face of the Heater Element, take care to not entrap air between the Teflon material and the face of the Heater Element.

5. The Teflon Cover must cover the entire face of the Heater Element. Any excess Teflon material that extends beyond the edge of the Heater Element must be trimmed off.

NOTE: Trimming the excess Teflon Cover material off of the Heater Element is important! Failure to do so may result in the peeling of the Teflon Cover material from the surface of the Heater Element.

Lower Press Platen

Clean often by wiping with a soft, clean cloth. Replace the pad whenever it becomes deteriorated.

Procedure to replace the Lower Press Platen:

1. Switch the Heat Sealing machine to the “Off” position and allow the Heater Element to cool down to room temperature.

2. From the side, gently wedge a screwdriver between aluminum base and aluminum backing plate of the platen assembly. The Lower Press Platen can now be removed from the base.

Lubrication

Normally, the HS3E or HS4E machines do not require lubrication.
