This process involves mounting previously prepared decals onto a substrate. No films or adhesives are required for this process.

TO MOUNT DECALS ONTO A SUBSTRATE

Place the mounting board on a flat surface.

Lay your image face down on the mounting board and expose approximately 1" (25mm) of the adhesive by peeling back the release liner along one of the edges.

Fold the release liner back making an even crease.

Turn the image over and carefully position the exposed adhesive edge of the image squarely onto the board.

Once positioned correctly, press the exposed adhesive edge of the image firmly down onto the board from the center toward the edges to ensure a smooth surface. This is the edge that will be fed into the rollers first.

IMPORTANT! Ensure that the Shim Wheel settings of the rollers correspond to the board thickness.

Push the edge of the board into the rollers and depress the foot switch until the board and image are just caught by the nip.

Flip the un-tacked portion of the image over the top roller with one hand so that the release-liner can be peeled off the image with the other hand.

Depress the foot switch to feed the board through the rollers.

IMPORTANT! Because the foot switch overrides the photoelectric eye, be sure to keep your hands clear of the rollers to prevent injury.

At this point, continuous run can be selected by pressing the Forward Motor Direction switch.

NOTE: Take care that the rollers do not grab the liner.

If the board is accidentally sent in too far at first, the release liner will get caught and will be impossible to pull back. In this case, stop and reverse the motor until the liner can be pulled away.

The image must be held against the roller while the board feeds through to prevent wrinkles.

NOTE: Take care that the release liner does not trip the photoelectric eye.

As the process becomes more familiar, the speed of the laminator may be increased to make the process more efficient.

Remove the mounted image from the rear of the lamina- tor, trim it to size and display it.
