TUSY 5 in 1 Heat Press Demonstration

[@Montallies]

You're video came in handy in a pinch. It's been a few years since I've used my press and I forgot how to set temp and time. Thank you

[@brendaakamscraftprincess6462]

A friend just gave me one of these as she upgraded. It didn't have a manual. Thanks so much for this video.

[@sirdwight5394]

Got my heat press a few days ago and was procrastinating to set it up. Thanks a lot! Now the adventures begin :)

[@valholmes6073]

Hi, Roger I am now subscribed btw I have this tutorial saved to my tutorial Playlist. THANK YOU for your demo. I was gifted with the same Tusy heatpress without a manual so this was very helpful and I look forward to seeing more so I can get started using my heatpress.

[@lyvettegeddes2502]

Great Video, Have never used the plate press till now. Thanks for the how-to on it.

[@shalishapatrick359]

This was a great Thorough tutorial. Very straightforward and informative. I was apprehensive about setting this machine up but this gave me great info and was able to set up up within 15 minutes or less

[@Kev.Innovation]

That t-shirt is the best i have seen in a long time! Great Video Too!

[@cindyspurse871]

Thank you so much I have this exact one and the instructions were pretty vague. I'm more a visual learner so demonstrating each attachment was very helpful!

[@BlessedandBeautifullyBlended]

Yes, I was a little lost by the instructions but this demo is GREAT!! 💜💜

[@skiiclipzzZ]

Thanks Roger for taking the time to show me how to set up and use :)

[@ReeceYoder]

I changed my press to the hat press and now when I went back to the shirt press the top part is wobbly. I’ve tightened everything, and it fixes it but then loosens back up. Any suggestions?

[@rogersshop]

There is a bolt in the center, between the springs that can come loose. it is very hard to get a wrench in there, but a 12 point box end metric does fit. You will only get a small amount tightened before having to reposition the wrench. I no longer have this press, but do remember having to do this.

[@Jayaluv854]

I ordered my press from Walmart. Its not marked Tusy and the person communicating is in China. I think they sent me a knock off Does! The temperature is also 100 degrees off! My control box doesn't have 3 prong plugs like yours. Nor is there a timer switch level that connects with the timer so it doesn't turn off! Also Does your press fall over to the side when you swing it to the left or right? Im gonna return it and order mine from your link.

[@rogersshop]

Sounds like you got a "knock-off". Mine is accurate and does not tip when rotated. It is quite heavy and solid.

[@Jayaluv854]

@@rogersshop yes it definitely was because it didn't even have the switch or connectors on the power box smh. I returned it today for a refund.

[@ACB2K]

This demonstration is THE BEST! Thank you very much @Robert!

[@bethjones4474]

How do you adjust the tension for the heat press when doing shirts? I also need a user manual as I bought mine second had and the seller didn't have it. Do you know how I can get one?

[@rogersshop]

Knob on the top rear is adjustment. Do not know where you can find the manual (which was poorly written).

[@bethjones4474]

@@rogersshop Thank you! Very good tutorial!

[@Blackpearlspeaks]

Once the machine is set up how do you start doing transfers and etc? I want to do t shirts and mugs and hats where do i start

[@rogersshop]

Look though our videos as these topics are covered.

[@teresarene1]

Roger, I don’t kn if you have the answers but I received my “ Tusy “ press 5/20/22 The first thing I noticed was Tusy was not embossed on the top heat plate , looking at the box the Tusy name was covered with tape , looking at the control box , on the back where voltage info. is right under what I believe is the serial number I noticed black sharpie covering something, I scratched it off with my nail it say “ manufactured by Tusy also the cover of the instruction book at a white sticker ( I peeled it off) it says “ Tusy” why is the Tusy name removed from all these places & last but not least the heating elements for the mug press are not attached to the body of the mug press ? Sorry so long but do you have any idea about any of this ?

[@rogersshop]

Like a lot of things made in China, one factory makes all the same thing and then brands them according to what the customer wants them to say. I did a video a while back comparing several different inexpensive sets of small pruning shears. All of them were identical other than handle color and brand name on them.

[@jennylowe4486]

@teresarene1 I have this same problem but no where does it say Tusy, on the press, box or manual. Nothing about it looks like the one Roger has and it's also a 5 in 1. They told me some crap about them changing their logo. I don't buy it at all and returning min today. I don't get why yours did say Tusy and they marked it out, why not leave it? Not to mention mine is 40 degrees off, hotter then what I set it for.

[@autumnadcock7051]

Thank you!! I just got this exact press and I loved how you broke everything down and demonstrated. Def made sure to subscribe

thank you very much for this break down sure helped a lot mine does not have the sound on it when its thru

[@kimberlynewsome4711]

When pressing a shirt I noticed you took the speckled white pad off and just left the orange pad on their. Is that how we are supposed to do it? Or do you take it off when pressing shirts

[@rogersshop]

The "speckled" pad is softer than the orange pad. If I'm doing something like shirts, I either leave it off or put it under the other pad. When doing something that has "curves", such as a ceramic tile, I put it on top along with a heat press pillow. (Really something I should do another video on!)

[@janekamuli7284]

Hello there, i have a problem with those two sides handles are loose, what can I do?

[@cindigiannantoni6255]

Hi Roger, thanks for this video! I notice in your other videos you have a Teflon sheet attached to the top. Why did you need to do that?

[@rogersshop]

Extra protection in case I have a "Geezer moment" and forget to put paper over the press project. Protects the top platen and cheap insurance. Held on with 4 magnets.

[@tywxrld9188]

How did you bold the screws on top

[@brendaverbonach3133]

So you can’t use this for just cricut iron on?

[@rogersshop]

If you mean HTV, then yes you can.

[@amyowens6891]

I don't see a limit switch on my heat press or mug press

[@rogersshop]

Depending on model, it may not have one. Otherwise, the limit is on top of the platen on main press and by the handle on the mug press.

[@amyowens6891]

Ok on Amazon is says Tusy 5and 1 but it didn't say it on box like yours ok thanks

[@moomoon1410]

Just unboxed this heating press and your video is really really helpful. Many thanks from Ghana. However, I have a quick one please, what's the difference between those two pads orange and kind of white? How to use them? Under the tee-shirts? I am a newbie! Lol. Thank you sir.

[@rogersshop]

Both go under your project, with the orange one on top.

[@PamMoney]

Thank you so much very detailed an it has since the instructions were not with mine, I had a time figuring it out

[@dylangarciayt4664]

hi roger, nice video what is the temperature to sublimate an 11 onz mug and the time. my mug press is giving me a hard time it smells weird when it warms up, and smoke starts to come out. i dont know if that is normal? the first time i did 350 for 120 seconds but it did not do that.

[@rogersshop]

Should not smoke on warm up (unless first time use, which would be normal). Some smoke (steam) would be evident while sublimating, and is normal. I do 385 degrees for 120 seconds on mugs,

[@dylangarciayt4664]

okay thanks, its my second time using it. but it did not work on 385 too high i had to lower to 330 for 160 seconds. plus it shuts off and starts clicking on and off then shuts the electricity.

[@rogersshop]

@@dylangarciayt4664 The clicking sound is the internal relay and is normal. If it is tripping your breaker or blowing a fuse, there is something else wrong, which may, or may not be the press. This easily goes to 400 degrees. This should be used on a 20 amp circuit and may trip a breaker on a 15 amp circuit if there are other loads. (Retired Master Electrician)

[@AnxiousDuck545]

Hello! Thanks for the unboxing video was concerned on quality of this . Question: I’m between this and a cricut heat press + hat press. For time efficiency which would be better quality and faster?

[@rogersshop]

In "my opinion", the Cricut unit is WAY over priced for what it is. I have had no issues with the Tusy and have been using it in a production setting even though it is not designed for such use.

[@anayasanford7195]

love your sense of humor😂 thank you

[@dawnshaver8876]

Hi Roger, I have this same machine and love it.....except....if I have a thick sweatshirt or very large....I have either a hard time or impossible to get thick clothing in the press. Any ideas? Does the top go up higher? Thanks!!

[@rogersshop]

Yes, you can elevate the top quite high. Turn the knob at the top of the column.

[@dawnshaver8876]

Thank you!!! I thought that was the pressure. Is that pressure too?

[@rogersshop]

@@dawnshaver8876 Yes, it is both. Once a suitable height is established, you can fine tune the pressure with the knob.

[@staticfax]

mine does not have any limit switches

[@staticfax]

and only one connecter on the control besides power plug

[@rogersshop]

Models differ. Those without limits need to have the timer started manually

[@rhondapfenning7422]

Roger, my heat press is stuck on the time setting. Any ideas?

[@rogersshop]

If pressing the Set button isn't working, then the controller is bad and needs to be replaced.

[@chasityrenteria375]

Mine won't turn on the screen but the power button turns on? Any ideas on how to fix?

[@rogersshop]

Insure that the cords are connected tightly and that it is plugged into a live outlet. Also, the switch position can be deceiving, so double check that. Otherwise, if this is a new unit (or an older one that worked previous), it may have a defective controller.

[@churchkimber6401]

Mine is fine but the out switch keeps going off and on, any idea why?

[@rogersshop]

@@churchkimber6401 It could be a bad switch, which are easily found. While the actual heat press has served me very well, some of the parts are not of the "highest quality", so to speak. If you take dimensions and type of switch (with unit UNPLUGGED), these type of switches are only a few dollars. If this is a new press,, I'd contact Tusy.

[@churchkimber6401]

Hi Roger I commented yesterday but had not checked everything else yet , I was going to at least test the press , I couldn’t even do that because it came with the wrong power cord …

[@katherineharbigerwalker464]

Hi Roger, I enjoy your videos. I remembered from one on sublimating on the glass trivets (I make trivets all the time now) that you have a Tusy heat press so I found this video to watch. Mine has an unlevel bottom plate. It slopes to the back and is not pressing firmly when the front of the bottom has good pressure. Any suggestions on how to adjust this so that I have even pressure over the entire bottom plate? Thanks

[@rogersshop]

You could probably shim up the back with some washers. Will take some trial to get it just right.

@@rogersshop Thanks Roger. Please keep making your how to videos.

Roger can you tell where where you got your tusy from. I bought one on Amazon a month ago and I think it is a knock off. No where on the press, manual or box does it say tusy. Doesn't even looke like the real Tusy even though the seller assures me it is.. TY

@@rogersshop They still have the 5 in 1 but I was just watching you video again where you show everything on the controller box and it looks nothing like it. Doesn't have all those connectors just one. Where yours says temperature it's says sv/pv. They are trying to send me another one but I just want to send it back. I seen in your other videos you got a Vevor also, how do you like that one?

[@rogersshop]

@@jennylowe4486 The Vevor also performs well. I just upgraded to a large, commercial heat press from Heat Press Nation since we use these in a commercial setting and although the Tusy has held up, it is not intended for how we use it. A video will be coming soon and this new press is a beast! Was NOT cheap!

[@victoriad1127]

Great video! I just got mine a few days ago and set it up and used it, as soon as it reaches 380 degrees the out button starts to clicks off and on , I sent a message to the company and they said it does that and asked if it is working well. It heats up fine and everything I’ve made with it has turned out fine but the clicking off and on is annoying. Does yours do that?

[@rogersshop]

The click you are hearing is the internal relay for the heating element as it cycles to keep the platen at proper temperature. This is normal and is not unique to this brand. the internal relay is required to handle the amperage load for the heat element as the load exceeds what could be done on the circuit board. There are solid state load switching relays, but are more expensive than standard coil-operated relays commonly used on equipment like this. I have two other heat presses, both of which are different brands, and they all do this.

[@xiomaratorres4467]

I absolutely love the break down. Found it very helpful. Mines is on the way. 1st one so I was super concern about putting it together. But am confident now. Thank you🙏🏽 Love the tee 👕 lol I don't have a subliminal printer. Is it the only option for the mug and plates?

[@rogersshop]

If you don't have a dedicated printer for sublimation ink, and you happen to have a Cricut, Infusible ink pens can be used to make your design. These pens (although expensive for what they are) contain infusible ink.

[@xiomaratorres4467]

@@rogersshop Thank you so much for your reply. Wow I should have known, I ordered the Cameo 4. It has pens too but am not sure if it infusible ink. I shall do my research. Starting small will look into investing in Sublimation printer in the near future. Blessings

[@rogersshop]

@@xiomaratorres4467 Infusible ink pens would need to be purchased separate. If looking into a printer, consider the Epson Eco-tank line. There is a video here on my channel on how to convert it to sublimation ink.

No problems. And, using it in a production setting, which it is not designed for. Not unusual for this to be run constantly for 8-10 hours at a time, several days in a row. No issue with it other than a few screws coming loose, which was easily fixed.

Rodger I wouldn't endorse this machine as it is not of good quality.

[@rogersshop]

Other than the fiddly height adjustment knob, I have had no issues with this and it is being used very heavily, for long periods at a time. I am not endorsing this machine, and am not paid to review this, nor was it given to me. This is a "hobby-level" heat press, and I am using it in a commercial form. Not what it was designed for, but it is performing very well.

I have a feeling that you received a mark off of some kind as I did , every where it should say “ Tusy” did not exist or was covered with a white sticker or marked out with a sharpie as it is on the back of the control box needless to say for the price… I’m angry that I did not receive what I paid so much for …
