Mounting & Laminating
The ML27 is capable of simultaneously mounting and laminating a print on up to 3/16” mount
board.
Mounting your print:
1. Be sure all laminator parts (i.e. safety shield, feed table, etc.) are in their proper positions
and the laminating film is loaded correctly on top and bottom mandrels. (See page 7 for film
loading instructions).
2. Using the supplied allen wrench back out the four pressure adjustment screws about 1/4”
each. (Be sure to return the screws to their original position when going back to regular
sheet laminating).
3. Turn the Heat Switch to the ON position.
4. Set the temperature using table 1 on page 10
as a guide. You may need higher temperatures than
indicated for mounting and laminating mount board.
5. Turn the fans on. Figure 9
6. Perform a test mount to ensure proper settings for successful mounting. If any adjustments
are necessary make them now and run another test. Repeat this step until you obtain desired
results.
7. Feed the print and mount board slowly and evenly into the laminator behind a leader board
so that the leading edge of your mount board does not become compressed. Pull back the
peeled back release liner before it enters the rollers.
8. You may mount subsequent prints now, one directly behind the other so that the board in
front becomes the leader board.
9. Once your last print has completely exited the laminator, turn the MOTOR and FAN
switches OFF and use the trimmer to remove the mounted and laminated prints.
Preparing your print for mounting:
1. Peel back about 2” of release liner on your precoated mount board.
2. Align the top edge of your print with the top edge of the mount board (see figure 9).
