After you are familiar with the control panels and their functions, check all operations.

Check the Main Power

Press the Stand-By switch up and the front and back displays on the control panels should be lit.

The center red switch on both top cabinet control panels should be illuminated.

Check the Emergency Stop Buttons

Press one of the Emergency Stop buttons and the laminator will shut down.

Rotate the Emergency Stop button clockwise to reset.

Repeat this procedure with all four Emergency Stop buttons.

Check the Heater Controls

Press the top heater On/Off button once; the corre- sponding LED should be lit.

The readout will display the ambient temperature.

Press and hold the top heater Up arrow to increase the temperature set point. Watch the readout for 5 minutes to verify that the temperature increases.

Press and hold the Down arrow to decrease the tempera- ture set point.

Press the top heater On/Off button again once; the corresponding LED should not be lit.

Repeat this procedure for the bottom heater.

Check the Motor and Foot Switches

Check both motor control panels as follows:

Push the green Motor Forward switch and the rollers should rotate in the forward direction.

Press the green Motor Reverse switch and the rollers should rotate in the reverse direction.

As you turn the Speed Control knob clockwise the speed of the rollers should increase and the speed readout (top display on front and rear control panels) should increase in number.

Turning the Speed Control knob counter-clockwise should decrease the speed of the rollers and the speed readouts should decrease in number.

Press the center red Motor Stop switch and the rollers should stop rotating.

Press the foot switch and the rollers should rotate in whichever roller direction that was last pressed. Check both foot switches for operation.

CHECKING THE ROLLERS

Your laminator has a pneumatic pressure adjustment with fine-tune control for a smooth, flat finish. Correct adjust- ment of the pressure rollers’ height is essential for safe and proper operation. Check this prior to every use.

Check the vertical movement of the top rollers as follows:

Press the roller switch UP. The top roller should rise smoothly and evenly on both ends.

Press the roller switch DOWN. The top roller should lower smoothly and evenly on both ends.

Repeat this procedure for both front and back top rollers.

IMPORTANT! The silicone covering of the rollers is soft. Do not scratch the surface with a sharp object or fingernail.

WARNING! If your laminator does not operate cor- rectly, contact Technical Service immediately.
