Installation Safeguards

  

 

 

 

Shipping damage should be brought to the immediate attention of the delivering carrier. 

 

Avoid locating the laminator near sources of heat or cold.  Avoid locating the laminator 
in the direct path of forced, heated or cooled air. 

 

The receptacle must be located near the equipment and easily accessible. 

 

Connect the electrical plug provided with the laminator to a suitably grounded 

outlet only.  This  machine must have reliable  earth ground to ensure  the safety of the 
machine during operations. 
Contact an electrician should the electrical plug provided with the laminator not match 
the receptacles at your location. 

 

Ensure  that  the  voltages  of  the  power  supply  you  are  using  match  the  rated 

working voltages before operations. Do not use incorrect power supply. 

 Do not use damaged wires or outlets.  If abnormal conditions occur, switch off 

the power supply first. 

   This machine must be grounded reliably to ensure safe operation. 

 

Only a licensed electrician should install wiring and outlet for the laminator. 

To ensure safe operation, do not defeat or remove electrical or mechanical safety 

devices such as interlocks, shields, guards and photo eyes. 

  This machine is equipped with a heating system; do NOT touch the surface of 

rollers during thermal operations to avoid burns.
