(2)Slide the roll of laminating film onto the unwind shaft so the adhesive is facing away from the heat roller when placed on the laminator.

CAUTION: The dull side of the film contains the adhesive. Use extreme caution when loading delustered (matte) film as both sides appear dull.

(3)Load the sheet stack on the feed table. Make sure to “fan” the paper when loading to ensure proper feeding. Left justify the paper and adjust paper guides as required.

(4)Adjust suction cups on the feeder so that only the suction cups needed are being used. To adjust, turn off the first suction cup that does not come in contact with the paper stack. See Figures 6.1.1 and 6.1.2

(5)Adjust suction cup pressure and blower pressure. As a starting point, the blower should be set at 20 Kpa and the suction should be set to -40 Kpa. This may have to be adjusted for different applications.

(6)Select paper length on main control panel.

(7)Select Nip Pressure on main control panel. See “Application Guide” for settings.

(8)The Polaris is left justified and the film should be lined up from the left to the right. Once the film is mounted, secure in place by tightening the screws on the locking collars.
