Operation, hot lamination

1Connect the power cord plug to the appropriate power source.

2Push the power button to “ON” position. The red power indicator will illuminate (fig.1).

3Using the lamination guide located on the machine (fig.1), select the appropriate temperature setting for the pouch gauge thickness and material you are laminating using the rotary knob control.

Temperature Setting Guidelines

When laminating thin paper with light ink coverage, set the temperature dial to the low end of the film gauge range. Thick paper with heavy ink coverage requires higher settings within the range. Temperature settings will vary due to the finish, chemistry, and heat absorption properties

of the material being laminated. If the laminated pouch is cloudy after the first pass through the machine, adjust the temperature to the next higher position and run it through again. If waviness occurs, reduce the temperature to the next lower position. Always allow sufficient time for the laminator temperature to adjust to the changes made to the settings.

4When the laminator has reached the correct lamination temperature the green (ready) light will illuminate.

5Centre the item to be laminated within the pouch left to right with the top edge against the sealed edge of the pouch (fig.2).

6Insert the pouch with the sealed edge first into the machine (fig.3).

7The laminated item will automatically exit at the rear of the machine. After the pouch has stopped moving, carefully remove from the machine and place on a cool flat surface for approximately one minute for cooling (fig.4).

8If you are finished laminating push the power switch to turn the machine off.

Operation, cold lamination

1Connect the power cord plug to the appropriate power source.

2Push the power button to “ON” position. The red power indicator will illuminate (fig.1).

3Rotate the temperature dial to position.

4Follow the instructions included with your GBC self adhesive laminate or other pressure sensitive, non thermal laminating pouches.

G

Reverse feature

In the event of a misfeed or a jam follow these instructions.

1 Press the reverse button and hold down (fig.5). This will reverse the rotation of the rollers allowing the pouch to exit the front of the machine.

2Pull the document out of the laminator.

3After the document is out of the machine clean the rollers by running the cleaning sheet through the laminator.

mCaution: Use caution when removing the laminated pouch from the machine. It may be hot.

Note

1Never insert the loose end of the pouch first into the machine. This could cause the machine to jam.

2Never attempt to do single sided lamination. This will cause the machine to jam.

3After laminating run a clean card through the machine to clean glue residue off of the rollers. This will extend the life of the rollers.
