Keep hands and fingers clear of the pull

i) The person at the rear of the laminator will guide
and lower the upper pull roller onto the leader
board as it passes through the nip opening.
Do not lower the pull roller so that the
substrate is crushed when passing through.
This will prevent the boards from bowing.
INFORMATION
j) As the boards come through, the person at the
rear of the machine will use the utility knife to
separate the boards.
