Re: Hix Flatbed Press Set Up Problems

<t>Ok, back again.<br/>
<br/>
First of all, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to Becki and Kris at Listawood, especially Kris, who has the patience of a saint!<br/>
<br/>
It turns out that the problem with the press was down to operator stupidity :redface:. It took Kris all of 30 seconds to fix it ...

Re: Hix Flatbed Press Set Up Problems

<t>Just a quick line, I don't want people to think I've done a runner after asking for help :biggrin:<br/>
<br/>

Re: Hix Flatbed Press Set Up Problems

<r>It's just so frustrating <E>:mad:</E><br/>
<br/>
When you spend this sort of money for a supposedly good quality item, you would think it would be tested to make sure it works before it's shipped. It would be a real hassle to return it, as it will mean taking time out of the day job to sort it ...

Re: Hix Flatbed Press Set Up Problems

Thanks for all your help Justin, it really is appreciated :smile:

I'm afraid you have confirmed what I feared, but I will give the suppliers a call tomorrow (if I get chance to, still got to try and make a living at the 'proper' job to fund all of this).

Re: Hix Flatbed Press Set Up Problems

<t>There is an LED display which is meant to show the pressure setting, situated below the time/temp settings. It says that it measures pressure on a scale of 0 to 9, but no matter how I adjust the pressure wheel, it just shows 0. Also, when you pull the handle down, it does not lock into place. I'm ...
