Page: 12 / 26

The laminator temperature should be adjusted according to the film thickness and the item
being laminated. See table 1 below for recommended
temperature settings. Keep in mind that
the temperatures listed are approximate and different brands of laminating film and heavy
paper stocks may require different temperatures. Also keep in mind that when the machine is
cold the warm-up time may be longer than the heat indicator light may suggest due to the
rollers not yet having sufficient heat distribution.
1. Turn the Heater Switch on.
2. Use the heater Thermostat Adjustment Knob on the left side of the laminator to adjust the
temperature of the Heat Shoes. Use the temperatures in table 1 below as a guide.
Material Temperature Range
1.5 mil (.0015”) 270°F - 325°F
3 mil (.003”) 240°F - 275°F
5 mil (.005”) 250°F - 270°F
10 mil (.010”) 250°F - 270°F
3. Turn the knob counter clockwise to reduce the temperature and clockwise to increase the
temperature. If reducing the temperature, wait several minutes for the heat to drop to the de-
sired operating temperature. When increasing temperature, the indicator lamp will come on as
the laminator is heating up and go off when it reaches the set temperature.
4. Check the LCD readout to see if the desired temperature has been reached. You may have to
make a few minor adjustments before optimum temperature is set.
Adjusting Slitter Blades
The slitter (figure 8) may be set to trim the web to the desired width as it exits the laminator. If
an additional slitter blade is installed (optional), two pages (side-by-side) may be laminated
and trimmed in a single operation. As the web exits the unit, these pages may then be sepa-
rated with the additional slitter blade.
