GBC 1264WF/1244WF Operation Manual

Know your Laminator Continued-

1.) Safety Shield:

∙The Safety Shield aids in preventing the operators fingers from becoming pinched or burned in the heat rollers of the laminator. With the Safety Shield raised or removed, the machine goes into the safety mode that prevents the run button on the control panel from starting the rollers to turn. The foot pedal must be used when the Safety Shield is raised or removed.

2.) Control Panel:

∙The Control Panel enables the operator to control motor run/stop, motor direction, motor speed, cooling fans, top temperature, bottom temperature, job number selection, job programming and temperature reading.

3.) Feed Table:

∙The Feed Table supports the product that is to be laminated. It also prevents full access to the roller nip (where the upper and lower roller meet) of the laminator. Because of this, the laminator has been designed not to operate when the Feed Table is removed. Re-install the Feed Table before attempting to operate the laminator.

4.) Lower Film Shaft/Unwind Shaft:

∙The Lower Film Shaft/Unwind Shaft holds the lower film and allows the end user to apply tension to the web.

∙The Upper Film Shaft/Unwind Shaft holds the Upper film and allows the end user to apply tension to the web.

6.) Unwind Brake:

∙The Unwind Brakes are used to apply tension to the web.

7.) Pressure Plate:

8.) Emergency Stop/E-Stop:

∙The Emergency/E-Stops are a safety feature that allows the operator to stop the rollers from rotating by depressing them as needed.
