When using a silicone rubber, be sure to engage the depth
stop. Set the stop so the die CANNOT touch the part that you are
stamping. One way to do this is to turn off the air. The head will
drop down onto the part. Then turn the stop clockwise until it can
no longer turn. Next, turn the air back on. Then turn the stop (1)
full turn clockwise. When you cycle the press you should get a
faint print. Finally; turn the stop to fine tune the machine.
