Special notice

Thank you, for your recent purchase of a GBC Pouch Laminator. Your new laminator may emit a slight odour during the initial stage of operation. It is normal and will diminish after several hours of operation.

Before you use your H405/H415 Laminating machine for the first time, it is recommended that you familiarise yourself with the machine’s operation and controls. Check the results using a range of sample sheets of paper before laminating your valuable original documents.

Cleaning

mThis personal laminator is for low volume use only. No servicing other than external cleaning should be performed on the machine. Do not immerse in water.

To reduce risk of electric shock, do not remove the base.

•Never clean with scouring powders or hand implements.

•Wipe clean with a soft cloth.

Important safeguards m

mWARNING: FOR YOUR PROTECTION DO NOT CONNECT THE POUCH LAMINATOR TO ELECTRICAL POWER UNTIL YOU READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY. KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS IN A CONVENIENT LOCATION FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. TO GUARD AGAINST INJURY, THE FOLLOWING BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE OBSERVED IN THE SET-UP AND USE OF THIS PRODUCT.

General safeguards

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of electric shock and injury, including the following:

•Carefully read all instructions.

•Always unplug the appliance when not in use or before cleaning.

•Extreme caution to be taken when appliance is used by, or near to, children or invalids.

•To protect against risk of electrical hazards, do not immerse power cord, plug, or appliance in water or other liquids.

•Do not insert any metal objects, e.g. scissors, or foreign objects into the entry or exit areas of the machine. Do not laminate metallic objects.

•Do not operate the appliance with a damaged power cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, has been dropped or is damaged in any manner.

•The plug on the power cord is the disconnect device.

•The equipment should be installed near the outlet socket and the socket should be easily accessible.

Importantm

•It is important that you do not use a Carrier with this machine. This can result in the laminator becoming jammed or failing to run. This is an operator fault and is not covered by a manufacturer’s warranty. (A carrier is made from folded card and is supplied with most packs of pouches).

•Do not attempt to laminate items which are too thick for your laminator i.e. the total thickness including the pouch must not exceed 1.0mm.
