Bottom Roll: With the gripper spring towards you, push the core gripper blade away from you and place the roll of film onto the mandrel so that the film unwinds away from you from the bottom of the roll. Turn the roll on the mandrel to lock the core gripper blade into the cardboard film core.

BOTTOM MANDREL

The core gripper blades on the top and bottom mandrels spring back in opposite directions. The blade should spring back in the direction that the core will rotate when laminating. When the film is loaded properly the core gripper blade will prevent the film from turning on the mandrel. When using poly-in rolls the top roll of film should unwind from the bottom and the bottom roll should unwind from the top. With poly-out rolls the top roll will unwind from the top and the bottom roll from the bottom. Once the film is properly loaded onto the man- drels, replace the mandrels onto the laminator.

Threading the Film (Figures 1&2)

1.Feed the film from the top roll behind the upper idler roller and lay it over both rollers. Be sure that the adhesive side of the film is facing out and the non-adhesive side is against the roller.

2.To thread the lower roll, first drop the lower idler roller down.

3.Pull about 4’ of film from the bottom roll. Feed the film from the bottom roll under and behind the lower idler roller.

4.Lay the film from the lower roll over the film from the top roll and both rollers, again ensuring that the adhesive side of the film is facing away from the rollers. If you are cold loading it will be necessary to tape the bottom film to the top film. If you are hot loading, the bottom film will adhere to the top film where it overlaps at the rollers.

5.Have a large piece of poster board ready to use as a feed card to thread the film between the rollers.

6.Close the rollers.

7. Set the FORWARD/REVERSE switch to the FORWARD position and turn the MOTOR ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
