Always test laminate with a similar size and
thickness before final process.

BEFORE LAMINATING
Ensure the machine is on a stable surface.
Check there is enough clear space (min 50cm)
behind the machine to allow items to pass through
freely.
Plug the machine into an easily accessible mains
socket. Switch the mains supply on.
Fit the Exit Tray to the rear of the machine.
STEPS TO LAMINATE
Switch the power on (located at the rear right side of
the machine).
The control panel buttons will flash once as part of a
check light system to ensure proper function.
The Standby button will remain on with a soft blue
glow.
Press the ‘Standby’ button on the control panel.
The Auto (hot)/cold button and entry tray lights will
flash. The auto display will turn solid and a beep will
sound when the laminator is ready for 75/80 micron.
Additional micron indicators will light up when the
laminator is ready for thicker pouches.
The machine will automatically warm-up to the hot
pouch (auto) setting.
Note
: the laminator features
AutoSense which automatically recognises the pouch
thickness you insert into the laminator.
For cold lamination, press the Auto (hot)/cold button.
The cold display and entry tray lights will flash.
When the laminator is ready for cold lamination the
cold display will turn solid and a beep will sound.
Note: to use the cold setting after hot lamination you
may have to wait for the laminator to cool down for
30 – 60 minutes.
To switch back to hot pouch laminating after cold
laminating, press the Auto (hot)/cold button.
Place the pouch, sealed edge first, into the pouch /
document entry. Keep the pouch straight and central
within the document entry, not on an angle. Use the
entry markings as a guide.
Upon exit, the laminated pouch is hot and soft.
Remove the pouch immediately. Place pouch onto a
flat surface to cool. This helps prevent any jamming.
