The distinguishing feature of this press is the upper roller drive. A gear ratio of 1:3,5 ensures a uniform motion during the printing process. Heavy duty double chains that drive the gearing are enshrined by a safety cover on the opposite side of the press as the driving wheel. Easily accessible screws are used to bring in the slack on the drive chains.
If the spindles are loosened, the upper roller is raised by spring pressure. Shims of cardboard can be placed under the pressure spindles to give more flexibility to the press (useful to compensate for irregularities when printing woodcuts or lino).The spokes of the star wheel are made of stainless steel. The upper roller has self lubricating bronze bearings and the lower roller ball bearings.
