GBC 1264WF/1244WF Operation Manual

Section 8: Safety

The 1244Wf & 1264 WF have numerous safety features that will help keep the operator safe from harm. But for these features to work correctly, the user must become familiar with each of the safety mechanisms as well as never override a safety feature.

Emergency Stop/E-Stop

Two Emergency Stops (Sometimes referred

to as E-Stops) are located on the 1244 WF & 1264 WF laminators. See the “Know your Laminator” section for the locations.

Pressing any one of the two Emergency Stops will immediately stop all roller motion.

To reset the Emergency Stop, simply rotate the red top clockwise; this will cause the red top to pop upward and allow the rollers to turn again.

Safety Shield

The Safety Shield aids in preventing the operators fingers from becoming pinched or burned in the heat rollers of the laminator. With the Safety Shield raised or removed, the machine goes into the safety mode that prevents the RUN button on the control panel from starting the rollers to turn. The foot pedal must be used when the Safety Shield is raised or removed. Use caution when operating the unit with the shield removed.
