I have a question on a machine I just "inherited." It is a National GM4000 with no manual. I would love to find one, if anyone has an idea where to start.

It has the marked off/on toggle switch, a timer and the dial thermometer. There is a knob missing from the top platen. I have a feeling that is where I set the temperature. I can turn it and make a red light come on near the timer and hear the press make a noise. If I turn it further, the light goes off.

Any clues what I do? I got my printer set up and have been reading and studying, am ready to practice, but duh...........I didn't think about where the temperature is set.

Thanks.

Nancy

Hello Nanc

Still have that National Screen GM4000? Me too, and I have a manual. You definitely need that knob on the top platen. Try turning it when it's hot and you won't have any finger prints left!

I can scan whatever I have and send it to you as an image file.

I know this post of yours is really old, but thought it might help you. I was actually looking on some help calibrating it!

I don't have it anymore, I never got it to work right. I have a new press and it's wonderful.

Thanks for trying to help me!
