Laminating Pouches
1. Carefully read this operation manual before
operating the unit.
2. Never attempt to open and service the unit. There
are no user serviceable parts inside the laminator.
3. Repairs must be done by authorized personnel.
Unauthorized servicing of the unit will render the
warranty invalid.
4. Use only the pouches with the right thickness and
size. Pouches that are too thin will easily be caught
and result in document jams.
5. Never laminate heat sensitive material such as
thermal fax paper.
6. Machine surface is hot during operation. Children
operating the machine must be supervised by
adults.
7. Never use cold seal laminating pouches in a hot
seal laminator. The machine, pouch and document.
will be damaged.
8. Never laminate over staples or paper clips.
1. Attention! You may notice an odor coming from the
laminator for the first couple of times of use. Do not
be alarmed. This is normal and the odor will
disapate during normal use.
2. Make sure the main switch is in the OFF position
before plugging in the unit. Use only wall sockets with
the right voltage supply and plug types.
3. Toggle the main power switch at the back of the
machine to the desired pouch thickness
(US system 3 mil and 5 mil, Metric system 80 mic
and 125 mic). The RED indicator will light up.
4. When the GREEN indicator is lit, the unit is ready for
lamination.
5. Insert the document into the correct pouch size.
Leave approximately 3 to 5mm at each side of the
pouch. It is highly recommended NOT to put several
smaller documents into a large pouch. Doing so may
cause poor laminating effects and pouch jams.
6. Insert the pouch evenly, with the closed end first,
into the front side paper inlet.
7. The laminated documents exiting the machine may
still be hot so precautions are required while
handling.
8. It is recommended using 5 mil pouches when
laminating thin of soft materials. When laminating
thicker or harder materials it is recommended using
3 mil pouches to help void jams when laminating.
9. Do not trim pouches before laminating. Always
leave a minimum pouch border of approximately 1/4”
around your document. Using trimmed pouches prior
to lamination can lead glue exposer to the rollers
which can result in pouch jams.
10. When changing the laminating thickness selection,
leave the machine in the OFF position for 30
seconds. This is to prevent overloading the circuit.
1. The machine is equipped with a JAM RELEASE
LEVER to clear document jams, which is located
next to the ON/OFF switch.
2. Symptoms of Paper Jams:
a. Documents fail to exit
b. Abnormal noises are heard during operation
c. Document become wrinkled on its way
through the machine
3. Once document jams occur, turn OFF the machine
and press the JAM RELEASE LEVER to release
the jam. Remember to place the JAM RELEASE
LEVER back in the UP position after jam is removed.
