Thanks for the info. For some reason on my machine the flood bar will push up so it is easy to put that in. The squeegee is always under pressure. I can't lift up the squeegee cariage it has presure on it. The only way to get the squeegee in is when the screen is out. That can't be right.

you are setting it up backwards. Make sure you are in plastisol mode and that the floodbar is closer to the center.
we talked about printing outwards, but I checked with MHM and they said, while you could do it, printing inward is better.

pierre,
I am setting it up right. The squeegee is on the outside and the flood bar in on the inside position (closest to the center of the press). Does the air release button also release the pressure to the squeegee? If so then that answers my question...I will go play with it and see if it does...

without a screen in try this . . .
push and hold adjust and then push the little lock button. It will switch squeegee floodbar up and down. See if that makes any difference.
My floodbars do not move, but the squeegee can be pushed up. Floodbar thus has to be loaded with the screen out and the squeegee can be added later.

Side Note:::
Hirsch customer service was way fast today.
I had to order some parts for my Press and I didn't wait at all. The first time I called they answered right away. They had a tech call me. He called in less than 20 mins. I was blown away. Then I called to have them order the parts and I only waited maybe 30 seconds on hold. (Flash Elements for $79 each)
Way to go it makes owning a MHM less scary then people say. (or is it just the other Press manufactures that say the MHM service is bad)

did you get the part numbers for the flash bulbs?
