Safety Precautions
WARNING: Please review the following safety precautions before unpacking your new
laminator.
Use care in unpacking and lifting the laminator.
Be sure to keep the laminator level when
lifting or moving. The laminator weighs approximately 300 pounds.
Consider your work area.
A cluttered work space can lead to accidents. The laminator
should be placed on a level, sturdy surface. Do not attempt to operate the laminator in a damp
or wet environment. Do not operate electrical devices in the presence of flammable liquids,
solvents or in gaseous/explosive atmospheres. Keep the work area well lit. Allow sufficient
access to the front and the back of the machine. See page 4 for additional work space
requirements.
Respect the feed rollers.
Keep your hands away from the feed rollers and any other moving
parts. Turn the drive switch to the OFF position before attempting to clear any film
wraparounds or jams. Use the automatic reverse to clear any film. Do not wear any loose
clothing, ties, jewelry, etc., which can be caught in the feed rollers.
Do not operate the laminator when any panels or guards have been removed.
Panels
and guards protect operators from such moving parts as the drive chain and sprockets, roller
ends, etc.
Turn the power switch OFF
before walking away or leaving the laminator unattended.
Before lifting or moving the laminator,
turn the power switch OFF, unplug the unit and allow
the laminator to cool to room temperature. Remove any film rolls before lifting or moving the
machine. Film is easy to rethread, see pages 15 - 16.
Keep children away.
Make sure visitors are kept well back from an operating laminator.
Do not abuse the electrical cord.
Never pull the cord in order to disconnect it from the
receptacle. Do not allow the cord to have contact with heat, oil or sharp edges. Do not cut off
or otherwise bypass the grounding prong on the plug.
If an extension cord is necessary,
be sure that it is properly rated and of the same wire
gauge or smaller as the laminator cord. The capacity of the cord must prevent loss of power
and overheating. Before using, inspect the extension cord for any damage, including loose or
exposed wires, broken fittings, damaged insulation, etc.
For service on your laminator
call your dealer. Use only your dealer’s parts for service or
replacement. Failure to use your dealer’s parts could void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Use common sense.
Be cautious when operating your laminator. Do not operate the
laminator when you are tired or your reactions are impaired in any way.
Do not allow anyone to operate the laminator
who has not received proper instruction and
has not read the safety instructions
