Before ironing  
Preparing the work area  
Place close by:  
– a basket with the laundry ready for  
ironing to the left of the rotary iron,

Before ironing  
Preparing the laundry  
Pulling into shape and smoothing  
out  
Correct preparation of the laundry is  
essential for easy ironing.  
^ Pull the dampened laundry into  
shape as usual.  
Before ironing, the laundry should be:  
– dampened  
^ Smooth out ribbons, straps, seams  
and hems.  
– pulled into shape and smoothed out  
– sorted.  
^ Large items such as table cloths, bed  
linens, etc. should be folded  
lengthways into a number of pleats  
so that they can be ironed as easily  
as possible.  
Correct dampness  
The laundry needs to be sufficiently  
damp, so that on the first pass through  
the rotary iron at the correct  
Sorting  
temperature, it will come out smooth  
and dry. Dampen the laundry as you  
would for hand ironing, preferably  
several hours beforehand so that the  
articles achieve a uniform degree of  
dampness throughout.  
^ Sort the laundry according to how  
much heat is required for ironing.  
Start ironing at a lower temperature and  
gradually increase the temperature  
according to the fabric being ironed.  
If a tumble dryer is being used, select a  
"Machine iron" program.

Before ironing  
Testing the finger guard  
Please note:  
Any unevenness in the ironing cover  
will smooth itself out after 3 hours of  
use.  
The finger guard is a safety feature  
and should be checked each time  
the rotary iron is used.  
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.  
^ With the rotary iron turned on, press  
the foot pedal down.  
The heater plate comes down onto the  
rotating roller.  
If a new ironing cover is used, wash the  
cloth at a high temperature (140°F/  
60°C) to achive an optimal pull-in of the  
laundry.  
^ 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.

Ironing  
Selecting the roller speed  
There are 5 roller speed settings, from  
low (approximately 6.5 ft/min.[2 m/min])  
to high 15 ft/min. [4.5 m/min]).  
A lower roller speed makes it easier to  
iron complicated articles such as shirts  
and blouses. It is also best to select a  
low roller speed when ironing folded  
items, which may require more than one  
pass through the rotary iron to get them  
smooth and dry.  
Thinner, single thickness items,  
e.g. handkerchiefs can be ironed at a  
higher roller speed.  
^ Turn the temperature selector to the  
desired temperature.  
The temperature "C°" indicator will light  
while the heater plate is heating up.  
The light will go out when the  
temperature selected is reached.  
When ironing a fabric blend,  
e.g. poly cottons, the more delicate  
fiber determines the ironing  
temperature. However, if there is  
more cotton than polyester, the item  
can be ironed on the ßß Silk / Wool  
setting.  
Do not use the the cotton setting.  
^ Set the roller speed selector to the  
desired speed.

and then smooth out.  
The feed board can be removed when  
shaped garments are being ironed,

keeping your hands away from the  
heater plate, so that the edge of the

hand holder and then pull it out to the  
left of the roller.  
Laundry bar  
^ Press down the foot pedal.

using the right and left hand sides of  
the roller.  
^ When the heater plate has cooled  
completely, fold the rotary iron.  
^ Wind up the power cord.

metal hooks with a cloth to protect  
the heater plate.  
To protect the heaterplate do not iron  
buttons that are not heat resistant or  
very large.
