INSTALLATION
Uncrating the Machine
CAUTION:
When taking the top off, care should be taken so
that the top does not fall into the crate, possibly
damaging the laminator. It might be necessary to
use two or three people for this task.
During the uncrating process make sure that the
screws do not end up on the floor. They can cause
problems later when trying to roll the machine into
position.
To uncrate the Orca 80-99 Laminator you will need a
phillips head screwdriver. It helps to have a cordless drill
with the screwdriver bit, because there are quite a few
screws to remove throughout this procedure. In order to
minimize the possibility of damage to your new Orca 80-
99 Laminator, please follow this procedure exactly.
1. The top of the crate is the first piece to be removed
(see diagram on page 4-3).
2. Next, remove one side of the crate (see diagram). At
this point it is necessary to have someone support the
remaining side of the crate while the remaining end is being
removed. Maintain support of the side until all mounting
screws are removed and the side is off the crate.
3. Remove the end of the crate (see diagram).
CAUTION:
Do not use a knife or other sharp instrument to
remove any protective covering. This could cause
irreparable damage to the machine.
4. Remove the shrink wrap from the machine and its
contents.
5. Once the shrink wrap is off, remove any accessories
from the crate. While doing this, take care not to scuff
the machine.
6. When all the accessories have been removed from the
crate you will notice that there are two ramps that are
bolted down to the crate bottom: these will need to be
removed, using the phillips head screwdriver.
The ramps must then be secured to the edge of the crate
bottom using the screws left over from crate disassembly
(see diagram).
PLEASE NOTE: The Orca 80-99 Laminator is a
large and heavy piece of mechanical equipment.
Casual movement of equipment of this type can be
hazardous to the average person; and poses the
potential of serious damage to the machine.
It will be necessary to employ qualified and
trained personnel (licensed, certified RIGGERS)
if any movement of the machine other than rolling
on a flat, level surface is contemplated.
The Orca 80-99 Laminator is not designed to be
tipped up or sideways in anyway. Such action may
disturb the exact alignment of the rolling parts of
the machine and require extensive re-alignment.
GBC Pro-Tech’s warranty does not cover
malfunction of the equipment due to mis-handling
and/or tipping.
GBC Pro-Tech bears no responsibility for parties
who fail to follow these directions. Any injury or
damage to the machine due to improper moving is
the sole responsibility of the mover.
Before the machine can be rolled off the crate, the foot
bolts must be freed from the four shipping hold-down
plates. Loosen the lock-nut on each of the foot bolts.
Unscrew the foot bolts from the hold-down plates. Raise
but do not remove the bolts and lock nuts from the foot
bracket. (At this time, you may wish to remove the hold-
down plates from the crate to provide unrestricted removal
of the machine from the crate).
