MOUNTING
This process involves mounting a decal onto a substrate.
No films or adhesives are used in this process.
n
Adjust your nip setting to correspond with the
thickness of your substrate.
Procedure
n
Step one - Place your substrate on a flat surface. Lay
your image face down on the substrate, peel back the
release liner along one of the edges, (approx. 1” or 25
mm exposed) and crease.
n
Step two - Turn the image face up. Position the
image squarely on the substrate, be careful not to let
the exposed adhesive make contact.
n
Step three - Once positioned correctly, press the
exposed adhesive firmly from the center out. This
edge will be fed into the rollers first.
n
Step four - Push the bonded edge of the substrate
into the roller nip. Depress the footswitch, and be
careful not to allow the release liner to enter the nip.
n
Step five – Flip the image over the top roller so that
the release liner can be peeled off. Hold the image
with slight tension against the top roller with one
hand. While depressing the footswitch, peel the
release liner away from the image.
n
Remove the mounted image from the rear of the
laminator and trim it if necessary.
*
Warning! Take care that the release liner does not
trip the photo eyes.
