Falcon 36 Operation Manual Installation
GBC Pro-Tech 1997 October
2-7
WARNING
Do not attempt to move the laminator across
anything other than a flat, level surface
without trained and qualified riggers. You
can be crushed or seriously injured.
The Falcon 36 Laminator is a large and
heavy piece of equipment. It is necessary to
employ LICENSED RIGGERS ONLY to
move the machine. The laminator is not
designed to be tipped up or sideways in any
way. Such action disturbs the exact
alignment of the rolling parts of the machine
and requires extensive realignment. GBC
Pro-Tech’s warranty does not cover
malfunction of the equipment due to
mishandling and/or tipping.
GBC Pro-Tech bears no responsibility for
personal injury or damage due to moving the
laminator improperly.
6. Once the laminator is in place set the locking
mechanism on all four wheels to ON.
7. Remove any plastic strapping and packing paper
taped to the
roll
s.
CAUTION
Do not use a knife or other sharp instrument
during installation or while servicing the
laminator. You can cause irreparable
damage to the rolls.
8. Remove all packing materials to a safe distance
from the laminator.

A NOTE ABOUT RECYCLING
The crate components can be reused for shipping
the machine again, or can be disassembled and the
wood and screws recycled. The shrink wrap is not
recyclable, however, so it must be discarded.

NOTE
A word about international shipments: As these are
heavy pieces of equipment, GBC Pro-Tech takes
every precaution to ensure that our laminators are
properly crated to the highest standards.
Before machines leave our loading dock, they are
pre-treated with a VCI protective film to provide
total corrosion protection. This protective film is
wrapped around the machine and completely sealed.
In addition, moisture absorbing silicone desiccite
packs are packed inside the crate and machine
cabinets.
Prior to start up of the machine, you must remove
the desiccite packs from each cabinet and discard.
DO NOT operate the machine with the desiccite
packs inside the cabinets.
