Problem

Solution

The laminator will not turn on.

• Check if the power cable is plugged into the mains wall outlet.

 

• Check that the Stand-By switch is ON.

 

• Unplug the laminator and check the circuit breakers inside the left-side cabinet.

 

Only authorized safety or maintenance personnel should do this.

 

• Make sure the left-side cabinet door is closed and the Door Interlock is in the

 

ON position. Turning the Door Interlock to the OFF position automatically

 

shuts the laminator power off.

 

 

The motor will not run.

• Make sure that the photoelectric eyes are not blocked.

 

• Make sure that the Emergency Stop buttons were not activated. Rotate to reset.

 

• Check that either the Forward or Reverse Motor Direction switch is pressed

 

(switch will be illuminated).

 

• Turn the motor speed up.

 

• Unplug the laminator and check the fuses. Only authorized safety or

 

maintenance personnel should do this.

(boat-waking).

• Improper film tension – most encapsulating films need a minimal amount

 

of brake tension.

 

• Run the laminator at a higher speed for photo materials or heat-sensitive

 

prints because exposure to heat at low speeds can cause waving.

 

 

The film is cloudy or mottled.

• Increase the roller temperature or decrease the motor speed.

• Thicker films may require increased roller pressure due to the thicker film layer.

Technical Service:

For technical assistance, please contact your SEAL Graphics Technical Service representative (see rear cover).
