Calibrating the Teflon and Off-Contact on Your Stampinator

How to adjust your Teflon and off-contact on your Stampinator. If your teflon is loose and slack, it’ll pick up and not give you the matte feel you are looking for. When you flick the Teflon with your finger, it should sound like you’re hitting a stair drum. Use an 11/16th socket wrench.
Another reason why your Stampinator might need calibration is because of off-contact. A straight edge and a flashlight can be used to check if the heat platen is flush or not. If you do not see light coming through the bottom of the straight edge, you know you’re properly calibrated. If you do see light coming through the bottom of the straight edge, then you’ll need to make an adjustment. To make an adjustment, you’ll need a 5/32nd standard Allen wrench, and a 1/2 inch wrench to adjust the off-contact. You’ll want to pull the 5/32nd Allen wrench counter clockwise, and loosed the top nut a quarter turn, while holding the Allen wrench.
Be sure not to loosen more than 2 full turns, as this will void the warranty on the heating element!
