CAUTION!
Always make sure the machine is cool when you use cold lamination. Do not use
cold lamination if you just finished the hot laminating process. Let the machine cool
down for about 20-30 minutes.
HOW TO TURN OFF THE LAMINATING MACHINE
Turn the main switch placed at the back of the machine to position „O”, then unplug the
machine from the socket. The machine is turned off now.
AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF
When the machine is not in use for 30 minutes it automatically starts the cooling down
process. After another 30 minutes the engine turns off. If the machine was already cold
the engine turns off after 30 minutes.
CLEANING THE ROLLERS
Before and after the lamination use a cleaning paper to clean the rollers from dust and
glue. When the temperature is rising, place the cleaning paper and make it go through
the laminating machine a few times. It will protect the machines from laminating pouches
being pulled between the rollers. The cleaning paper may be replaced with a cardboard
of the grammature around 250 g/m² with a rough texture.
CLEANING THE COVER
1.
When the cover is dirty, use a soft wet cloth to clean it.
2.
Do not use solvents or petrol.
3.
Do not unscrew the cover to clean the rollers! It may cause electric shock!
HOW TO OBTAIN THE BEST RESULTS
1.
If your laminating pouch is not envelope-type it may be pulled in during the lamina
-
tion. The use of laminating pouches other than recommended may cause trouble
during lamination.
2.
Lines or wrinkles may appear, if the laminating pouch is not placed straight.
3.
If the margin of the laminating pouch is wider then 3mm, pouches may fold on both
edges of the document.
4.
Laminated edges may not hold if the document is thicker than 300 mic.
5.
The lamination of documents of the thickness lower than 150 mic or the use of lami
-
nating pouches of the thickness lower than 80 mic, especially cheap pouches where
the PET layer is thicker than 50 mic, may cause wrinkles. In such cases it is advised
to use a relatively low temperature (around 90ºC) or to use a carrier.
6.
If the laminated pouch is misty or does not show good gluing qualities, then you need
to use lower speed.
7.
If the laminated pouch is curved or wrinkled on the side, then you need to use
higher speed.
8.
Too high temperature may cause the pulling of the document into the rollers - use
the RELEASE button to release the document and clean the rollers from the glue.
9.
Remember to leave at least 50 cm space behind the machine for the laminated
documents.
