CHECKING THE ROLLERS _____________________________________________________________________
Your laminator has pneumatic pressure adjustment with fine-tune control for a smooth, flat finish. Correct
adjustment of the pressure rollers’ height is essential for safe and proper operation. Check this prior to every
use.
n
To check the vertical movement of the top rollers:
•
Press the Roller UP arrow button once. The top roller should rise smoothly and evenly on both ends.
•
Press the Roller DOWN arrow button once. The top roller should lower smoothly and evenly on both ends.
•
Repeat this procedure for both front and back top rollers.
*
IMPORTANT
: The silicone covering of the rollers is soft. Do not scratch the surface with a sharp object or
fingernail.
CLEANING THE ROLLERS_________________________________________________________________
*
IMPORTANT:
Clean the laminating rollers every day to prevent adhesive build-up and to ensure quality output.
Adhesive build up may eventually damage the rollers.
•
When laminating, a small amount of adhesive will squeeze out between the laminate films and onto the top and
bottom rollers. This residue accumulates through normal use and can be easily cleaned off the rollers.
•
Use the Image Roll Cleaner (catalog #960), included in your accessory pack, to remove the excess adhesive.
The adhesive is easier to remove with the rollers hot.
•
HINT: Place a scrap piece of foam board or cardboard under the top roller when cleaning to prevent the waste
adhesive from falling onto the bottom roller.
•
For a more thorough cleaning, allow the rollers to cool and then use a clean, lint free cloth and isopropyl alcohol
to wipe the roller clean.
þ
WARNING! Isopropyl alcohol is flammable, use only when the rollers are cold. Do not spill isopropyl
alcohol on the laminator.
þ
WARNING! Use only an Image Roll Cleaner or a cotton cloth and isopropyl alcohol to clean the rollers
and not other solvents or cleaners. Use of other cleaners or solvents may cause roller damage and will
void the warranty.
