Caring for the 640t Laminator

The only maintenance required by the operator is to periodically clean the rollers. The following procedure will help keep the rollers free of dirt and adhesive, which has been deposited along the edge of the laminating film. Proper alignment of the rolls of film reduces the amount of adhesive on the rollers. Perform only the routine maintenance procedures referred to in these instructions.

WARNINGS:

Do not attempt to service or repair the laminator.

Do not apply any cleaning fluids or solvents to the rollers. Some solvents and fluids could damage the rollers.

Keep fingers and hands away from the rollers when the machine is running. They could be trapped and crushed in the rollers. Clothing, jewelry, and long hair could be caught in the rollers and pull you in.

Failure to observe these warnings could result in severe personal injury or death or damage the machine.

Cleaning The Rollers

Keeping the rollers clean ensures that your finished items will not be damaged by dirt and adhesives. Clean the rollers with a clean, damp lint-free cloth. If there are any adhesive build ups, you may use isopropyl alcohol instead of water.

Never clean rollers with abrasive, sharp, or pointed objects.

Do not use any other cleaning agents other than those listed above.

Accumulated adhesive deposits on the rollers can cause damage to the rollers. Rotate the rollers at the lowest speed setting on the control panel.

To clean the rollers and idler bar:

1.Remove the print clamp and feed table. Refer to “Removing and Installing the Print Clamp” on page 6-3and “Removing and Installing the Feed Table” on page 6-3.

2.Remove the film from the laminator. Refer to “Loading Film Onto the Supply Shafts” on page 6-4

3.Use the dampened cloth to remove any dust, dirt, and other foreign materials from the rollers.

4.Press and release the foot switch to rotate the rollers to an unclean portion.

Keep your hands, fingers, pad, and rag away while running the machine. Be sure to remove all adhesive and dirt.
