XI. Laminating & Mounting
     Do’s and Don’ts...

Read the instruction manual before operating your laminator.

Always run test samples before laminating valuable items.

Feed the print through slowly and evenly, smoothing it as it is pulled into the laminator.

Operate the laminator with two rolls of the same width laminating film to avoid excessive adhesive transfer
to

the rollers.

If laminator is not in current use, lower the heat setting or turn unit off.

To avoid damaging the rollers, the heated rollers should be turned off for most applications after the
laminator reaches operating temperature. Never  feed abrasive materials or metal objects such as staples,
paper clips, or glitter through the laminator. Keep sharp  objects like scissors and rulers away  from the
rollers at all times.

Once an item has been fed between the rollers do not attempt to alter its position as this can damage the
print.

Do not stop the laminator before the item has completely exited from the rear to avoid a “dwell line” across
the print.

Do not clean or service the laminator before disconnecting the power supply.
