A quick guide to the Dual Cap Dek.

• The iDek Dual Cap Dek allows you to press up to
  Two Caps at a time on your Inline Modular Press.

3
Prepare your Press

• First, Quikclik your Cap Dek into place on
  your press.
• To do so, position the Cap Dek (trapezoidal
  pads to the left) over the Quikclik plate. Line
  up the holes on the bottom of the Dek to match
  circular dowels of the Quikclik plate. When
  the Dek and plate are paired, push the Dek
  toward the press to lock it into place.

4
Important!

• Be sure that your Cap Dek is fastened to your
  press on the proper side and orientation. If
  facing the press, the dual Cap Dek must be on
  the left pedestal with the trapezoidal Deks on
  the left for the cap bills to be out of the way.

5
Alignment

• For a 238 model iDek, make sure the Heat Dek is
  in Portrait position.
• If using a 340 model, visually align the heat
  Dek over the Cap Dek providing clearance for
  the bill.

6
Pressure

• Set the amount of pressure desired by turning
  the height adjustment knob located on the
  underside of the pedestal. Move the upper heat
  Dek over the Cap Dek. Bring the handle to the
  lowered position to test tension. Adjust
  accordingly. Raise the heating element and slide
  the arm away from the Cap Dek.

7
Cap Preparation

• Pull the sweatband away from the cap. If there
  is a cardboard liner in the cap, it will need to
  be removed before pressing.

8
Loading the Cap

• Place the back of the cap through the opening in
  the Dek so that the front will be pulled over
  the trapezoidal shaped Dek.

9
Loading the Cap

• Pull the cap down so that the front panel(s) of
  the cap can be centered on the trapezoidal shaped
  Dek.
• The process is the same for 5 and 6 panel
  caps, but the transfer will either be on single
  or multiple panels.

10
Transfer Placement

• Place the transfer on the front panel(s) of the
  cap. The transfer may be heat taped to the cap if
  needed. If the transfer is on opaque paper with
  no backing, cover it with a Teflon coated sheet
  before pressing. If the transfer has a carrier
  sheet, no Teflon sheet is needed. A Teflon
  pillow may be used for sublimation processing.

11
Pressing the Cap

• Slide the heat Dek into position and press the
  cap(s).

12
Post-Press

• Remove the caps from the Dek.
• You are now ready to repeat the process as many
  times as needed.
• iDek recommends the use of a steamer for crease
  removal on the pressed cap due to its resiliency.

13
Finished

• You have now pressed caps on your iDek. For
