VEVOR Screen Printing Press 4 Color 1 Station Screen Printing Machine Removable Pallet Silk Screen Printing Machine for DIY T-Shirt Printer

**instructions and video** Hey everyone! Despite having not so good instructions, it’s actually easier to assemble relative to what people are saying. I only have one arm installed at the moment because I have only be screen printing for a little bit and wanted to practice until I get better. 1: sort out all of your hardware(bolts, washers, springs, arms, brackets) so you get a sense of what you were looking for. The instructions label the different parts and bolts by number, and by having them laid out in front of you helps a lot. 2: The first thing I did was mount the T-shirt holder bracket to the T-shirt holder. They went ahead and pre-drilled the T-shirt holder on one side so it makes this pretty simple. 3: next you want to attach the black arm to the base of the machine. The side that you wanna attach it to is on the longer side with a random hole in the middle of the bar, not the shorter side. Use the hardware that is shorter and pretty wide. They are the widest bolts and there are only two of them. 4: Attach the bracket that has two bearings or the blue “U” shaped bracket, “U” side up. use the hardware that is longer. 5: Place the bolt With the felt on top in that random hole on the base. 6: attach the O-rings to the back of the longer blue “U” shaped bracket. I went ahead and pre-did this for all of them. Use the black hex bolts they supplied for all O-rings. 7: I then went ahead and installed all the O-rings. In between all of the bolts with the felt on top, there are three holes in line. The middle hole is the one that the O-ring goes to. 8: after the installation of the O-rings, I then put on one bearing, making sure that they were bolted down with the black hex bolts and a silver nut. On the bearing itself do you want to make sure that the side with the small retainer hex screws are loosened up and facing inward. Loosen the hex bolts on the bearing, but don’t take the tiny bolts out fully. 9: insert the long blue arm with the two rods into the bearing with the tab part down and one rod into the bearing , the tab part down will make sense later. 10: loosen the tiny hex screws on another single bearing, insert the other side of the arm into that bearing and bolt that bearing down, then bolt down all of the smaller bearings once you have the arm centered. 11: attach the blue longer “U” shaped bracket(that we prebuilt earlier) on the long blue arm. I was able to center this on the bracket by putting the T-shirt holder down on the bar that we mounted earlier and then setting the arm and bracket down on the T-shirt holder and then bolted it together. This just makes sense for me so it has proper spacing. 12: take your spring hardware, and make sure that they are at their lowest point by unscrewing the hook part and the circle part almost fully but not fully. Lift the arm in an upright position, attach the spring to the O-ring on the bracket up top (“U” shaped longer part) and use the rigid side of the spring holder and pull that down with one hand until it latches around the O-ring at the bottom. be careful with springs as they are pretty dangerous. 13: follow the steps 8 through 12 to install the rest of the arms. I hope my pictures, video, and instructions help!

I agree with the reviewers that stay this item requires some assembly ability, and the instructions could be better, but my only complaint is that there was no indication of which bolts to use for which purpose. The picture book manual was well printed, but still of little value. The video was slightly better, but the assembler made no effort to show which bolt was to be used for each connection. However, by laying out the hardware first, and loose fitting first, I had no problems at all. In fact, it seems that each bolt can only be used where it belongs, so I'm not sure it's even possible to make a mistake in this area. Still, if you aren't comfortable with assembly on similar items, like a kid's bicycle, then you might want to line up some help. The other issues reported appear to have been resolved. All connections fit perfectly, the included hardware was correct and of decent quality. I completed the assembly and tuning in about an hour. By "tuning" I'm referring to setting the various stop bolts for height, and adjusting the guides that prevents the arm-in-user from moving. Once built and tuned the unit works great. The main swivel as well as the hinges for the arms use bearings and work very smoothly. The table part is perfect for t-shirts and paper/canvas. The only other change I need to make is to secure the rear of the unit to the bench so I can press firmly on the table without tipping (although it only tips an inch before resting on the bench, so not a big deal).

I bought the VEVOR 4 Color 1 Station press for small business printing, and it’s a solid machine for the price. The frame is sturdy, and the metal parts feel heavier and more durable than expected. Once fully assembled and leveled, the arms hold screens tightly with no wobble. The press rotates smoothly between colors, and with a little adjustment, everything lines up nicely. It’s great for T-shirts, hoodies, and small batch orders. Assembly does take some time and patience — definitely follow the video instructions instead of just the paper manual. But once it’s together, it works reliably and delivers clean prints. Overall, a fantastic budget-friendly screen printing setup for hobbyists, beginners, or anyone starting a small shop.
