OPERATION

This section describes the operation of your MightyLam 2700. This laminator is designed for all widths of plastic up to 27”. However, if narrower widths are used the Heat Shoes must be cleaned before using a wider roll. Refer to the MAINTENANCE section for cleaning instructions.

Loading Laminating Film onto Mandrels...

Slide the film onto the mandrel. Note that one mandrel is labeled TOP and the other BOTT (for bottom). They are not interchangeable.

Threading Laminating Film...

These instructions apply to poly-in film rolls (shiny side out, dull side in).

1.For the top supply roll place the mandrel ends into the slots in the top of the laminator. If you are facing the front of the laminator the film should unwind toward you from the bottom of the roll as in figure below.

2.Pull 6”-12” of film from the top roll. Pass the film under the idler bar, heat shield and over the heat shoes. Make sure the shiny side of the film is against the shoes. See figure 5&6.

3.For the bottom supply roll, remove the feed table. Place the mandrel ends into position in the lower mandrel holder slots. If you are facing the front of the laminator the film should unwind away from you from the bottom of the rollers as shown in figure below.
