Cleaning RollerShoes™:
Clean the RollerShoes™ periodically to avoid adhesive build-up. Build-up can inhibit the film from moving over
the shoes smoothly. Use the following procedure to clean the RollerShoes™.
1. Turn the HEATED ROLLERS and TOP & BOTTOM HEAT switches off and
allow the laminator to cool
.
2. Cut the film where it comes off the top and bottom supply rolls. Pull any film out of the laminator and away
from the heat shoes.
3. Disconnect the power supply.
4. Open the safety shield and remove the feed table to expose the RollerShoes™. The feed table weighs
approximately 15 pounds.
5. Clean the RollerShoes™ with a clean, soft cloth dampened with an appropriate cleaning solution such as
isopropyl or denatured alcohol. Since the heat shoe is hard anodized you can use a scrub pad or very fine
steel wool.
6. Allow the RollerShoes™ to dry completely before rethreading the laminating film.
Removing Wrap-Arounds:
Build-up on the rollers and RollerShoes™ may cause a film wrap-around, especially when using thin film
gauges. Follow the procedure below to remove wrap-arounds.
1. Turn the HEATED ROLLERS and the TOP & BOTTOM HEAT switches OFF. Allow the laminator to cool.
2. Cut the film where it comes off the top and bottom supply rolls.
3. Select the OPEN position on the right side of your laminator and pull the film out of the unit that has
become wrapped around the rollers.
4. If you have a severe wrap-around, it may be necessary to use the REVERSE feature to back the film out.
Be sure to pull the film away from the laminator.
