Cold Lamination

If you see more than one option, take the thickness that best suits your purpose: The thicker the pouch, the more rigid and wear-resistant the laminated sheet will be.

If you are not sure of the paper’s weight or are laminating materials other than paper, the combined thickness of the pouch and contents should be your guide. The maximum in this case is the equivalent of a stack of 8 sheets of standard office paper. (See Pr o d u c t

Profile.)

To ensure high -quality results, always:

•Leave a free margin around the contents of at least 3 mm, or 1/8 inch, on the three unsealed sides of the pouch. This will guarantee a strong seal. If you put more than

one item in the pouch and want to cut them out individually, make sure you have at least 6 mm, or 1/4 inch, between them.

•Cut to size only after lamination. If even a small pouch will leave too much space around your contents or if you want the lamination to conform to their shape, wait until they are laminated before cutting: A laminating pouch is precision-cut to ensure minimal leakage of adhesives, and this cannot be replicated with scissors or paper-cutters. Yo u’ l l also find the pouch easier to cut afterwards.

To begin laminating, plug in the machine, lift back the cover A and press the power but- ton B, which will start the rollers turning. Make sure you have enough space behind the laminator to open the cover completely because it will operate only when the cover is in this position H. (This safeguard ensures adequate motor ventilation, while providing sup- port for sheets as they exit the machine.)

If you plan to laminate in both the cold and hot modes in one session, start with cold, so you don’t have to wait one to two hours for the machine to cool down. In either case, to save energy and reduce wear-and-tear on your machine, turn off the machine when you’re finished, again pressing the power button. If you forget, the machine will switch itself off automatically after one hour of inactivity.

With the contents and the pouch you have selected at hand:

1 . Press , if necessary. Your machine will be on this setting when you turn it on, so if it is at room temperature, you will almost immediately see the green standby light E go on and hear the ready signal.

2 . Open pouch and place contents face up onto the transparent, non-adhesive side, allowing for the 3 mm, or 1/8 inch, free margin. Leave the pouch open, with the adhesive side, which is covered by a glossy protective sheet, upright.

HRL 95, HRL 125 specifications

The Fellowes HRL 125 and HRL 95 are two innovative models in the realm of shredders, designed to cater to both home and office environments. Both machines are engineered to provide high-performance shredding while ensuring user safety and convenience.

Starting with the HRL 125, this shredder boasts a robust cross-cutting mechanism that efficiently destroys sensitive documents into unreadable particles. Its ability to shred up to 12 sheets of paper in a single pass makes it ideal for moderate-volume users. The HRL 125 also features a 6-gallon pull-out bin, which allows for easy disposal of shredded materials without constant interruptions. Notably, its Smart Lock technology adds an extra layer of security, as it locks the shredder when not in use, preventing unauthorized access.

The HRL 95, while slightly more compact, does not compromise on efficiency. Capable of shredding up to 10 sheets of paper at once, this model features a 4-gallon bin that is easily accessible for cleaning. One of the standout features of the HRL 95 is its Silent Shred technology, which ensures quiet operation, making it perfect for shared workspaces or home offices where noise could be a distraction. Additionally, it has a safety lock feature that further protects users from any accidental activation.

Both models are equipped with a safety blade that avoids jamming, thus enhancing performance and longevity. The Fellowes HRL series also includes a convenient reverse function, which helps to clear paper jams quickly and effortlessly. Furthermore, they are designed with durable materials, ensuring a reliable shredder that stands the test of time.

The design of the HRL 125 and HRL 95 emphasizes user-friendly functionality. They both have clear indicator lights that signal when the shredder is in operation, when the bin is full, and when the machine is overheating. This attention to detail improves the user experience, ensuring that users can focus on their tasks without worrying about their shredder.

In summary, the Fellowes HRL 125 and HRL 95 are exemplary shredders, offering high-security features, reliable performance, and user-friendly design. Whether for personal or professional use, these models deliver the security and efficiency needed for document destruction.
