❒ Are doorways and hallways wide enough for the
laminator to be moved to the installation site?
❒ Is there ample room for the laminator?
A work area must be established that allows for
operation in both the front and the rear of the
machine and provides space for efficient
material flow. Figure 2-1 shows a typical
machine area layout.
❒ Is the environment appropriate for the
laminator?
The laminator requires a clean, dust and vapor
free environment to operate properly. It must not
be located where there is air blowing directly on
the machine.
WARNING
The operating environment must be free of
dust, flammable liquids and vapors. You can
be injured by inhaling chemical vapors.
Vapor build up or stored flammable liquids
can cause a fire. Excessive dust can damage
the laminator.
CAUTION
Do not locate the laminator where air is
blowing directly on the machine. The air flow
can cool the rolls unevenly and result in poor
quality output.
❒ Is there an appropriate power outlet available or
has a certified electrician been contacted to wire
the laminator directly?
The laminator requires 30A single phase service
and a power receptacle that accepts a 30A 250V
NEMA L6-30P plug.
WARNING
Do not attempt to defeat the grounding
feature of the ground plug on the laminator.
You can be severely shocked, electrocuted or
cause a fire. The three prong plug fits only
into a grounding-type power outlet. If you
are unable to insert the plug into the existing
outlet, contact a qualified electrician to
replace the obsolete outlet.
WARNING
Do not use an extension cord on this
laminator. You can be severely shocked,
electrocuted or cause a fire. If you need a
longer cable contact a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Do not operate the laminator if the power
cord is damaged or frayed. You can be
severely shocked, electrocuted or cause a fire.
Contact a qualified electrician to replace the
cord.
