thread the top roll of film under the idler roller as shown in the
threading diagram on previous page (see Figure
10 -4). Pull
the film down so that the films lead edge is below the lower
heat shoe. next thread the bottom roll of film under the lower
idler bar pulling film upward until it is even with the top heat
shoe (the film will overlap). tape it to the top film edge. this
creates a film “Web” (Photo 1
1 -1 & 1 1 -2).
Using tension adjustment knobs, loosen tension on both rolls
of laminating film. turn on the “drive” switch and using the
threading board—push the film web into the laminating
rollers. this process will push the web into the pull rollers and
exit. Ensure that the threading board and film exit between the
rear pull rollers (Photo 1
1 -3 & 1 1 -4).
NOTE:
If you lose your threading board or if it becomes
damaged, you can make your own with a piece of poster
board. Cut poster board 12” wide by the length of the
laminator, 27”.
Your laminator is now loaded and ready to be heated. remove
the threading board and save for your next use.
