Air Requirements

CAUTION:

Do not use a knife or other sharp object to remove the paper coverings. This would cause irreparable damage to the rolls and necessitate their replacement.

The Orca 80-99 laminator requires filtered air at 2 cubic feet per minute (CFM), (50 liters/minute) at a pressure of at least 100 pounds (700 kPa) per square inch (PSI). The air supply must be clean (free of dirt) and dry. Moisture will cause corrosion and particles can block pneumatic controls. Either can cause the laminator to malfunction.

It is the customer’s responsibility to provide appropriate filters and water traps for the air line before the air is routed to the laminator.

GBC Pro-Tech suggests that the best approach to the air requirement is to provide a dedicated small compressor for the laminator. A standard light-duty 1/2 to 3/4 horsepower (1 kW) electric air compressor with 1.5 to

2.5CFM output with a 2.5 - gallon (20 Liter) storage tank is appropriate.

Air is fed to the machine via a 1/4-inch quick-disconnect male connector. This connector is located below the cabinet on the left side of the machine. (Once the air supply and electrical power are connected to the machine, proceed to the section on Operation in this manual).

These items are needed to put the machine into operation.RECYCLING INSTRUCTIONS:

The crate components can be reused for shipping the machine again, or may be disassembled and the wood and screws recycled. The shrink wrap however, is not recyclable so therefore must be discarded.

In order to begin operation of the machine, the Up/Down rates for the main and pull rolls and the nips must be set (see the Operation section of this manual). Once set, the machine is ready for operation.
