This section describes the operation of the laminator. This laminating is designed for all widths of
laminating film up to 27”. However, if narrower widths are used, the rollers must be cleaned before
using a wider roll. Refer to the Maintenance section for cleaning instructions.
Prior to using your laminator, ensure that the POWER ON/OFF SWITCH located in the rear of the
machine is switched to the ‘ON’ position.
Loading Laminating Film onto Mandrels…
Slide the film onto the mandrel. Make sure the film is pushed all the over the supply mandrel washers;
this will ensure that the film will not shift during laminating. Remove the film in the same direction
.
Do
not to twist the roll of film or the empty core when removing them from the mandrel.
