YOUR
PHOENIX L
AMINATOR
Cleaning the Outside of the Laminator:
CAUTION! Disconnect the laminator
from the power supply before cleaning.
The laminator may be cleaned with a lint-
free cloth, lightly dampened with a mild
soap and water solution. Do not use a
spray-on cleaner.
Do not immerse any part of the laminator in
water or other liquid.
Do not use an abrasive cleaner, which can
damage the painted surfaces.
Do not allow water or liquids to enter the
electrical circuits, which may cause personal
injury and/or damage the equipment when
power is applied.
Cleaning the Rollers
The laminating rollers of your PHOENIX should
be periodically cleaned of adhesive build up that
might occur during normal operation.
IMPORTANT! Clean the laminating rollers to
prevent adhesive build-up and to ensure quality
output. Adhesive build-up may eventually dam-
age the rollers.
When laminating, a small amount of adhesive
will squeeze out between the laminate films and
onto the top and bottom rollers. This residue
accumulates through normal use and can be
easily cleaned off the rollers.
Use a Cleaning Board for regular cleaning:
A new sheet of 3/16” foam board may be
used to clean the rollers. Simply run the new
board through the machine to remove any
built up adhesive.
1. Turn on the unit. Once the machine has
reached process temperature set the
Control Knob to 3/16" (5mm).
2. Slowly insert the Cleaning Board into the
inlet opening. Ensure that the board enters
centered and straight. A gentle push may
be required to start the board into the
machine. Hold the edges of the board until
it is engaged in the unit and the laminator
begins pulling it on its own.
3. The board will feed through the laminator
and automatically exit at the rear of the
unit.
CAUTION! THE BOARD WILL BE HOT!
Allow the board to lie flat while cooling.
For heavier deposits of adhesive on the
rollers, turn your unit off and let it cool. Rub
the rollers with Isopropyl alcohol and a
Scotchbrite pad to remove the adhesive build-
up.
