44DT
Set the desired speed.
Refer to the
Lamination Guide
chapter.
Press the
RUN
button.
The rollers will begin to turn.
If using thermal films, allow the heat lines to pass
the heat pressure rollers before inserting items
into the rollers.
NOTE:
Do not press
RUN
until
READY
appears on
the display.
Position the item(s) to be laminated or mounted
on the feed table.
Push the item(s) squarely into the roller nip point
(where the two rollers meet). Additional items
can be laminated or mounted without stopping
and starting the machine.
Press the
STOP
button to stop the laminator
when all of the items have completely exited the
rear of the machine.
IMPORTANT:
To change from a process where only
the top roller is heated to a process that requires
heat on both rollers, you must first turn off the
laminator and allow the top roller to cool to room
temperature. Once the roller is cool, both rollers can
be heated simultaneously.
If the laminator will be used within one hour, you may
leave it turned on.

The 44DT automatically goes into a standby mode
after it has been idle for 3 hours. The heat roller
temperature is lowered to 176 °F (80 °C), if they were
on. After another hour of inactivity, the heat is turned
off.
To take the laminator out of standby mode, press the
RUN
button. If the heat was lowered or turned off,
you will have to wait until
READY
is displayed on the
control panel. To run the laminator, press the
RUN
button again.
IMPORTANT:
Whenever the laminator will be idle
for an hour or more, set the roller pressure handle to
Release.

The machine can perform three functions:
Decaling (laminating and applying a mounting
adhesive to the back of the item).
Mounting, using one film.
Mounting, using no film.
The 44DT laminator runs poly-in and poly-out
pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) and thermal films.
Poly-in means the adhesive side of the film is on the
inside of the web. Poly-out means the adhesive is on
the outside of the web.
