    I ran one of these in the early 80's. I guess if you have the right work for it............

    in Russia is much colder than on the islands but it is warmer indoors::rolleyes:
    In general, the main thing that the press and the inks had been heated

    Have you tried wearing gloves?



    It's freezing in our place in a morning in winter (sometimes as litle as 3 degrees C ), We set presses to idle at quite a good speed for 15 mins while we prepare other work and this seems to help, unfortunatly there's bugger all we can do about the odd shaped reels!

    Hey nice to see how some people still run their presses at idling speed although with the colour matching i'd have stopped the press...lol
