Maintenance

Caring for the  

GBC Talon 44/64 Laminator

GBC offers Cleaning kits as well as Extended Maintenance 

Agreements. 

Contact your local GBC Service Representative or your 

dealer/distributor for additional information.

The only maintenance required by the operator is to peri-

odically clean the heat rollers and schedule semi annual 

maintenance checks. 

The following procedure will help keep the heat rollers 

free of adhesive that has been deposited along the edge 

of the laminating film. Proper alignment of the rolls of film 

reduces the amount of “squeeze out”.

WARNING:

 Do not attempt to laminate adhesives 

marked “Flammable”.

•   Do not laminate glitter and/ or metallic items. Damage 

to the rollers may result.

WARNING:

 Do not apply any cleaning fluids or 

solvents to the rollers. Some solvents and fluids 

could ignite on heated rollers.

•   Never clean rollers with sharp or pointed objects.

•   Hardened adhesive deposits on the rollers can cause 

damage to the rollers. Rotate the rollers at the lowest 

speed setting on the control panel.

CAUTION: THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE IS 

PERFORMED WHILE THE LAMINATOR IS HOT. 

USE EXTREME CAUTION.

1.

  Remove the film from the laminator following the 

procedure outlined in steps 1 through 6 of the section 

entitled TO UNWEB THE LAMINATOR.

2.

  Preheat the laminator until the “READY” indicator 

appears.

3.

  Remove the safety shield and tilt the feed table.

4.

  Rub the top and bottom heat rollers with a 3M™ 

Scotch-Brite™ pad. 

DO NOT USE METAL SCOURING 

PADS! 

5.

  Use the footswitch to rotate the lower heat/ pull roller 

to an unclean portion. The upper heat/ pull rollers are 

free spinning. Continue this process until the entire 

surface of both rollers are clean.

6.

  Refer to the beginning of the section entitled
