NEED HELP?
Switch the power on (located at the rear of the machine).
The control panel buttons will flash once as part of a check light system to ensure
proper function.
The machine defaults to the 3mil hot setting. For 4mil, 5mil or cold laminating
press the corresponding pouch selection buttons.
When the machine is ready, a beep will sound and temperature setting button will

Place the document into the open pouch. Ensure the document is centered against
the sealed edge. Use the appropriate pouch size for the document.
Ensure the pouch enters the machine sealed edge first. Keep the pouch straight
and central within the slot, not on an angle. Use the entry markings as a guide.
Upon exit, the laminated pouch may be hot and soft. For the best quality and to
prevent jamming remove the pouch immediately. Place the pouch on to a flat
surface to cool. Take care when handling a hot pouch. Always remove laminate
pouch before starting next laminate.
To release a pouch during lamination activate the release lever located at the
rear of the machine. Gently pull pouch out of machine.

SETTING UP THE LAMINATOR
HOW TO LAMINATE
Switch off the machine at the wall. Allow the machine to cool. The outside of the machine can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or flammable materials to
polish the machine. Cleaning sheets can be used with the machine. When the machine is warm – run the sheets through the machine to clean any residue off the rollers. For
optimum performance, it is recommended that cleaning sheets are used with the machine regularly. (Cleaning sheet order codes #5320603)
