Section 8: Safety
The 1244Wf & 1264 WF have numerous safety features that will help keep the operator safe
from harm. But for these features to work correctly, the user must become familiar with each of
the safety mechanisms as well as never override a safety feature.
Emergency Stop/E-Stop
Two Emergency Stops (Sometimes referred
to as E-Stops) are located on the 1244 WF &
1264 WF laminators. See the
“Know your
Laminator”
section for the locations.
Pressing any one of the two Emergency
Stops will immediately stop all roller
motion.
To reset the Emergency Stop, simply rotate
the red top clockwise; this will cause the red
top to pop upward and allow the rollers to
turn again.
Safety Shield
The Safety Shield aids in preventing the
operators fingers from becoming pinched or
burned in the heat rollers of the laminator.
With the Safety Shield raised or removed,
the machine goes into the safety mode that
prevents the RUN button on the control
panel from starting the rollers to turn. The
foot pedal must be used when the Safety
Shield is raised or removed. Use caution
when operating the unit with the shield
removed.
