1. Adjust the machine settings as shown in process
chart 3-4b.
2. Trim the print to size and trim the board to the
size of the print.
3. Insert the board into the nip area and lower the
main roll until it contacts. Turn the crank
another 1/4 of a turn and remove the board using
the footswitch.
4. Clean the board with a tack cloth or cleaning
roller.
5. Place the image face down on a flat surface and
peel back the release liner on the leading edge
(about two inches).
6. Lay the image on the board and align it
carefully. When aligned, tack the exposed
adhesive strip's center to the leading edge to the
board. Work towards the edges from the center,
being careful not to wrinkle the image.
7. Position the piece so that the end with the liner
peeled back is facing the nip. Insert the first one
inch of the board into the nip. Very carefully,
wrap the print back and over the top laminating
roll, maintaining good print tension throughout
the mounting process. Be sure that there are no
wrinkles in the nip area. Carefully peel off the
liner as the board progresses through the
laminator.
8. Trim the board and image to the finished size.

This process is very similar to the Two Pass Mount
and Laminate using cold overlaminate.
1. Adjust the machine settings as shown in process
chart 3-5a and remove the infeed table.
2. Web up the hot overlaminate by wrapping it
around the upper film idler and draping it over
the upper main roll. Drape the film only about
halfway down the upper main roll.
3. Pull the mount adhesive straight up from the
lower unwind position, being careful not to stick
the film to the machine. Tack it to the hot
overlaminate.
4. Insert a starter board into the nip and lower the
upper main roll onto it.
5. Press the footswitch. Once the leader board is
through the nip, lower the upper main roll and
then rotate the crank 1/2 a turn more.
6. Reinstall the infeed table.
7. Encapsulate the images.
1. Adjust the machine settings as shown in process
chart 3-5b.
2. Trim the print to size and trim the board to the
size of the print.
3. Insert the board into the nip area and lower the
main roll until it contacts. Turn the crank
another 1/4 of a turn and remove the board using
the footswitch.
4. Clean the board with a tack cloth or cleaning
roller.
5. Place the image face down on a flat surface and
peel back the release liner on the leading edge
(about two inches).
6. Lay the image on the board and align it
carefully. When aligned, tack the exposed
adhesive strip's center to the leading edge to the
board. Work towards the edges from the center,
being careful not to wrinkle the image.
7. Insert the already mounted portion of the piece
into the pull roll nip. Lower the upper pull roll
onto the board and image. Very carefully, wrap
the print back and over the upper pull roll,
maintaining good print tension throughout the
mounting process. Be sure that there are no
wrinkles in the nip area. Carefully peel off the
liner as the board progresses through the
laminator. Be careful not to hit the small lip on
the fan bridge to avoid damaging the leading
edge of the mounted image.
8. Trim the board and image to the finished size.
