Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any damage during transit.
2. Placement: Place the rosin press on a sturdy, level, and heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is adequate space around the machine for ventilation and operation.
3. Power Connection: Connect the provided power cable to the machine's power inlet and then plug it into a suitable 220V power outlet. Ensure the power switch on the back of the machine is in the OFF position before plugging in.
4. Initial Inspection: Before first use, ensure the heating plates are clean and free of debris.

Operating Instructions

1. Powering On and Initial Settings

1. Flip the power switch on the back of the machine to the ON position. The digital display will illuminate.
2. The KP-4 features dual heating plates with separate temperature controls. Use the control panel to set your desired temperature for both plates. The recommended temperature for rosin extraction is approximately 225°F (108°C), but this can be adjusted from ambient up to 300°F (149°C).
3. The machine includes a voice prompt feature that will announce temperature settings as you adjust them.
4. Set the desired pressing time using the individual timer. The timer can be set from 0 to 999 seconds.

2. Preparing Material for Pressing

• Place your dried flowers or material inside a rosin filter bag.
• Fold a piece of baking paper around the filter bag, ensuring the material is fully enclosed. This will collect the extracted rosin.

3. Pressing Process

1. Once the heating plates reach the set temperature, carefully place the folded baking paper with the material between the two heating plates.
2. Slowly turn the hand crank clockwise to apply pressure. The KP-4 can apply up to 4 tons of pressure. Apply pressure gradually and steadily.
3. The 4x4 inch (101.6 x 101.6 mm) press plates ensure even pressure distribution.
4. Once the desired pressure is reached, start the timer. Allow the material to press for the set duration.
5. When the timer alerts, slowly turn the hand crank counter-clockwise to release the pressure.
6. Carefully remove the baking paper from between the plates. Be cautious as the plates will still be hot.

4. Collecting Rosin

• Allow the baking paper and extracted rosin to cool down.
• Once cooled, use the stainless steel dab tool to carefully scrape the rosin from the baking paper.
• Store the collected rosin in the provided silicone box.

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Heating Plates: After each use, ensure the machine is unplugged and completely cooled. Use a soft cloth or paper towel to wipe down the heating plates. For stubborn residue, a small amount of isopropyl alcohol can be used, but ensure no liquid enters the machine's internal components.
• General Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: Store the machine in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
