AUTO-RUN OPERATION 

• 

The continuous-run operation allows the user to 
start the roller rotation and adjust the roller speed 

by turning the Speed Control knob on the control 
panel. 

IMPORTANT! If the photoelectric eyes 
become blocked during continuous-run 

operation, the roller rotation will stop 
immediately. 

IMPORTANT! Take care not to stop the motor 
or block the photoelectric eyes while an image 

is being laminated as this can cause marks in 
the output. 

 
 

FOOTSWITCH OPERATION 

• 

The function of the footswitch is to permit the 
rotation of the rollers to be controlled in a hands-

free manner.  

• 

This feature can be used when webbing materials 

onto the laminator or feeding delicate images and 
overrides the photoelectric safety eyes. 

• 

The speed can be adjusted when using the 
footswitch by turning the speed control knob on 
the control panel. 

WARNING! On Domestic version laminators, 
the foot switch overrides the photoelectric eyes. 

Interrupting the photoelectric safety eyes does 
NOT stop the laminator when using the 

footswitch. A BUZZER will sound, warning of 
close proximity to the nip. Use care to keep 

hands clear of the rollers while using the foot 
switch to prevent possible injury. 

• 

After clearing the photoelectric eye blockage the 
buzzer will stop. 

• 

Releasing the foot switch will stop the laminator. 

CHANGING FROM FOOTSWITCH OPERATION 
TO AUTO-RUN MODE WITHOUT STOPPING 
(

TO PREVENT STOP MARKS ON THE SUBSTRATE

): 

• 

During footswitch operation (keep the foot switch 
pressed), then press the motor switch. 

• 

Next, release the foot switch. 

IMPORTANT! Do not stop the motor or block 

the photoelectric eyes while an image is being 
laminated as this can cause marks in the 

output. 

 
 

THE ROTATION OF THE ROLLERS WILL 
STOP WHEN: 

 

• 

The photoelectric eyes in the front of the rollers are 
interrupted.

 

NOTE! This does NOT happen when the foot 

switch is used on Domestic version laminators. 

• 

An emergency stop button is pressed. 

• 

The motor switch is pressed OFF.
