With the laminator on an unobstructed, level surface, perform the following
checkout before threading the machine with film.
WARNING: Make sure the power cord is clear of the underside of the
machine prior to operation to avoid overheating the cord.
MISE EN GARDE: S’assurer que le cordon d’alimentation ne passe pas
sous la machine, ce qui l’exposerait à la chaleur élevée produite par le
sabot infèrieur.
ADVERTENCIA: Antes de operar la máquina, asegúrese que el cordón
electrico no está debajo de la misma, para evitar el recalentamiento del
cordón.

Turn on the master switch (at the back of the unit next to the power
cord). The power indicator on the left front panel should light. Turn the
heat power switch to the ON position. Both heat controllers should go
on. The upper window of each unit displays actual temperature, the
bottom window displays the set temperature.
5.
To change the set point temperature to a desired setting appropriate to
your film/application, simply depress either up or down arrow button for
3-5 seconds until the bottom window display starts to increase or
decrease. Continue depressing the respective arrow till you’ve reached
desired set temperature, then release the arrow button. Wait
approximately another 3-5 seconds till the entire display flashes once
indicating the parameters are now set and will be held until manually
changed again, even if the unit is turned off and on.
The Chromalox heat controllers come set with a 400 degree F high limit.
