The invention relates to a press section of a machine for producing a fibrous web (1), in particular a paper, cardboard or tissue web, with two press nips (3, 4) lying one behind the other in the web running direction (2) and formed by two press elements each, around each press element at least one separate, endlessly rotating press belt (5,6,7,8) is guided over several guide rollers (9,10,11), the upper press belt (5) is guided away from the fibrous web (1) after the first press nip (3) , then transfer the fibrous web (1) from the lower press belt (6) of the first press nip (3) to the upper press belt (7) wrapping around a suction guide roller (12) of the second press nip (4) and then the lower press belt (8) of the second press nip (4) is brought into contact with the fibrous web (1) via a guide roller (9), after which the fibrous web (1) up to the second press nip (4) via a guide path (13) together with the two opposing presses bands (7,8) is running. The possible uses of the press section with the greatest possible drainage capacity should be broadened by the fact that the position of the guide roller (9) wrapped around by the lower press belt (8) of the second press nip (4) before the start of the guide section (13) in a length of the guide section (13 ) changing manner and in front of this variable guide roller (9) with a shortened guide path (13) below the fibrous web (1) a steam blower box (14) can be moved, the blowing nozzles of which are directed onto the fibrous web (1).
