Editing Instructions:Heat Press (section)

=== Before Use ===

* Make sure work table is clean; remnants from other projects can contaminate your project and the heat presses
* Inspect the heat press:
** Is there anything around it that should not get hot? If so, remove it.
** Is there room to move the heat press through its operating range (test fully opening and closing the hinge)? If not, move the heat press while it is still cold.

* Prepare your sublimation print or Heat Transfer Vinyl (see training info for those separately)
* Confirm that all parts of your substrate can tolerate the heat you will apply. Is there plastic? Are there strings/ropes (for example, on a pull-string bag)
* Make sure a welding/ heat resistant glove is in the work area in case you need to handle the heat press while it is hot.
