
GBC Pro-Tech 1997 October 1-3
WARNING
Exercise care when cleaning the rolls with
80% isopropyl alcohol:
•
Use only in a well ventilated area.
•
Wear rubber gloves.
•
Use only on cool rolls.
Cleaning heated rolls can ignite the fumes.
CAUTION
Use only 80% isopropyl alcohol or a rubber
cement eraser to clean the laminating rolls.
Harsh chemicals like toluene, acetone or
MEK destroy the silicone covering of the
rolls.
CAUTION
Raise the upper main roll when the
laminator is not in operation. Prolonged
contact can damage the rolls.
CAUTION
Excess pressure can damage the laminating
rolls. Always select the minimum roll
pressure necessary to complete the task.
CAUTION
If silicone adhesive contacts the upper or
lower roll, remove it IMMEDIATELY using
80 % isopropyl alcohol. It can harden within
an hour and ruin the roll.
WARNING
The operating environment must be free of
dust, flammable liquids and vapors. You can
be injured by inhaling chemical vapors.
Vapor build up or stored flammable liquids
can cause a fire. Excessive dust can damage
the laminator.
CAUTION
Do not use a knife or other sharp instrument
during installation or while servicing the
laminator. You can cause irreparable
damage to the rolls.
WARNING
Do not attempt to move the laminator across
anything other than a flat, level surface
without trained and qualified riggers. You
can be crushed or seriously injured.
The Falcon 36 Laminator is a large and
heavy piece of equipment. It is necessary to
employ LICENSED RIGGERS ONLY to
move the machine. The laminator is not
designed to be tipped up or sideways in any
way. Such action disturbs the exact
alignment of the rolling parts of the machine
and requires extensive realignment. GBC
Pro-Tech’s warranty does not cover
malfunction of the equipment due to
mishandling and/or tipping.
GBC Pro-Tech bears no responsibility for
personal injury or damage due to moving the
laminator improperly.
