The SEAL Image 6500 Laminator is designed with safety and protective devices with the user’s safety of utmost consideration. However, following safe operating guidelines is still the responsibility of the operator.

Hand-Operated Emergency Stop Buttons:

Photoelectric Safety Eyes:

A light beam path set directly in front and back of the laminating roller openings prevents foreign objects from passing between the rollers. (The eyes are set for use at the factory and checked by the service representative.)

Locking Cabinets:

Emergency Stop buttons are located on each side of the cabinets for easy access. Once pressed, they immediately cease the laminator’s operation and raise the rollers. Use these only in the case of an emergency or you may damage an image during a process.

NOTE: Once pressed, these buttons lock and must be turned clockwise to reset.

After resetting the Emergency Stop button, you must turn the heaters back on (if being used) and push one of the Motor Direction switches to begin processing again.

Foot-Operated Emergency Tap Switches:

Located on both sides of the laminator, pressing on these tap switches will immediately cease the laminator’s opera- tion and raise the rollers.

Covered Foot Switches:

The cabinets that house the inner workings of the lamina- tor include locks that maintenance or safety personnel can open only with the supplied keys.

WARNING! Use of the inside of the cabinets for storage may cause possible personal injury and/or damage to the inner workings and will void the warranty.

Door Interlock

Located on the left-side cabinet (facing front of lamina- tor), it automatically shuts the laminator power off when the door interlock switch is turned to the OFF position.

WARNING! For any servicing, ALWAYS turn the door interlock switch to the OFF position and the main power circuit breaker off before opening the side cabinets.

One on each side of the laminator allows for complete user control when initially feeding an image into the nip or for feeding a delicate image through the rollers. The cover pre- vents accidentally stepping on the foot switch and starting the laminator.

WARNING! The foot switch overrides the photoelectric eyes. When the photoelectric eye is blocked, the lamina- tor runs in slow mode at a speed of 2.0 ft. (0.6m) per minute. A BUZZER sounds if an operator blocks a photoelectric eye, warning of proximity to the nip. Use care to keep hands clear of the rollers while using the foot switch to prevent possible injury.
