Operation, hot lamination
1
Connect the power cord plug to the appropriate power source.
2
Push the power button to “ON” position. The red power indicator will
illuminate (fig.1).
3
Using the lamination guide located on the machine (fig.1), select the
appropriate temperature setting for the pouch gauge thickness and
material you are laminating using the rotary knob control.
Temperature Setting Guidelines
When laminating thin paper with light ink coverage, set the temperature
dial to the low end of the film gauge range. Thick paper with heavy ink
coverage requires higher settings within the range. Temperature settings
will vary due to the finish, chemistry, and heat absorption properties
of the material being laminated. If the laminated pouch is cloudy after
the first pass through the machine, adjust the temperature to the next
higher position and run it through again. If waviness occurs, reduce the
temperature to the next lower position. Always allow sufficient time for
the laminator temperature to adjust to the changes made to the settings.
4
When the laminator has reached the correct lamination temperature
the green (ready) light will illuminate.
5
Centre the item to be laminated within the pouch left to right with
the top edge against the sealed edge of the pouch (fig.2).
6
Insert the pouch with the sealed edge first into the machine (fig.3).
7
The laminated item will automatically exit at the rear of the machine.
After the pouch has stopped moving, carefully remove from the
machine and place on a cool flat surface for approximately one
minute for cooling (fig.4).
8
If you are finished laminating push the power switch to turn the
machine off.
Operation, cold lamination
1
Connect the power cord plug to the appropriate power source.
2
Push the power button to “ON” position. The red power indicator will
illuminate (fig.1).
3
Rotate the temperature dial to position.
4
Follow the instructions included with your GBC self adhesive
laminate or other pressure sensitive, non thermal laminating
pouches.
Reverse feature
In the event of a misfeed or a jam follow these instructions.
1
Press the reverse button and hold down (fig.5). This will reverse
the rotation of the rollers allowing the pouch to exit the front of the
machine.
2
Pull the document out of the laminator.
3
After the document is out of the machine clean the rollers by
running the cleaning sheet through the laminator.
Caution: Use caution when removing the laminated pouch
from the machine. It may be hot.
m
Note
1
Never insert the loose end of the pouch first into the machine. This
could cause the machine to jam.
2
Never attempt to do single sided lamination. This will cause the
machine to jam.
3
After laminating run a clean card through the machine to clean glue
residue off of the rollers. This will extend the life of the rollers.
