Installation schematic	To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the Pressing Die, please read these instructions carefully before installation and before using it for the first time Must Read the manual especially the die installation schematic before the operation The operator must wear protective goggles Must have Hydraulic Pellet Press equipped with the Protection Cover, please click the pic-2 to order You may order a vacuum pump separately for the dies ( click picture below right)
Cautions	WARNING: DO NOT press flammable, corrosive, or explosive materials The operator must wear a protection goggle Attention: Use ethanol to clean the pressing die before and after use every time Use anti-rust oil after the operation and store it in a dry place to avoid rusting NO pressing powder with particle size LESS THAN 30 micron should be used. Small particles may slip into the gap between pushing rod and steel sleeve and cause damages to the sleeve during the compression Ball mill or ground the powder to the size of 32~75 microns powder before pressing.  3'' Dia. Sieve Set No.200&450 Mesh can be used to separate the 32~75 microns particles from the powder clumps . Suggestions: Please use a professional laboratory hydraulic press to ensure the evenness of the pressing interface  For pressing sticky metal powders, such as Al, Mg, Zn, please use dry or alcohol-based lubricants to reduce friction during the compression.
