Before a Falcon 36 Laminator can be installed there
are a few requirements that must be met. Make
certain that each of the requirements listed in the
following preinstallation checklist are met before
beginning installation.

  CAUTION

Failure to follow the preinstallation checklist

can result in damage to the laminator.

Are doorways and hallways wide enough for the
laminator to be moved to the installation site?

 

Is there ample room for the laminator?
A work area must be established that allows for
operation in both the front and the rear of the
machine and provides space for efficient
material flow. Figure 2-1 shows a typical
machine area layout.

 

Is the environment appropriate for the
laminator?
The laminator requires a clean, dust and vapor
free environment to operate properly. It must not
be located where there is air blowing directly on
the machine.

 WARNING

The operating environment must be free of

dust, flammable liquids and vapors. You can

be injured by inhaling chemical vapors.

Vapor build up or stored flammable liquids

can cause a fire. Excessive dust can damage

the laminator.

  CAUTION

Do not locate the laminator where air is

blowing directly on the machine. The air flow

can cool the rolls unevenly and result in poor

quality output.

 

Is there an appropriate power outlet available or
has a certified electrician been contacted to wire
the laminator directly?
The laminator requires 30A single phase service
and a power receptacle that accepts a 30A 250V
NEMA L6-30P plug.

 WARNING

Do not attempt to defeat the grounding

feature of the ground plug on the laminator.

You can be severely shocked, electrocuted or

cause a fire. The three prong plug fits only

into a grounding-type power outlet. If you

are unable to insert the plug into the existing

outlet, contact a qualified electrician to

replace the obsolete outlet.

 WARNING

Do not use an extension cord on this

laminator. You can be severely shocked,

electrocuted or cause a fire. If you need a

longer cable contact a qualified electrician.

 WARNING

Do not operate the laminator if the power

cord is damaged or frayed. You can be

severely shocked, electrocuted or cause a fire.

Contact a qualified electrician to replace the

cord.
