1.  Place the nebulizer in the ring in the bottom of 

the nebulizer container; making sure that it is 
standing upright. 

2.  Check the level of water in the humidifier water 

supply bottle and fill with DISTILLED WATER 
if necessary.  Place the water bottle at an elevation 
above that of the nebulizer container so that the 
water will drain properly.  Allow the nebulizer 
container to fill to the float switch level.  The 
nebulizer should be fully submerged in the water. 

NOTE:  Distilled water should be used to prolong 

the life of the nebulizer (humidifier) unit. 

3.  Using the drain valve, empty any water that may 

be in the lacquer container.  Close the drain valve. 

4.  Measure the viscosity of the lacquer to be used 

and make sure it’s within the allowable range of     
30 to 50 Zahn-seconds.  See the section on 
“Measuring Viscosity.” 

5.  Pour approximately 2/3 of a gallon (2.5 liters) of 

lacquer coating solution into the lacquer container.  
(Lacquer should be about half way up the bottom 
transfer roller when full.) 

6.  Turn on the laminator and set it to the IDLE 

mode. 

7.  Adjust the roller height by following the 

instructions in the “Roller Height Adjustment” 
section. 

8.  Adjust the scraper assembly by following the 

instructions in the “Scraper Adjustment” section. 

9.  Coat some test prints by following the instructions 

in the “Test Procedure” section. 

10.  Proceed to the “Processing Images” section.

1.  Set the transport mode switch to the IDLE mode. 

2.  Open the lacquer container door. 

3.  Open the shutter.  This will make it easier to see 

between the top and middle rollers.  

4.  Facing the front of the machine, turn the roller 

height adjustment screws counterclockwise until 
you see a gap between the top metal roller and 
middle silicone rubber roller.  This gap is called the 
nip (see figure 19).

1.  Looking through the nip, turn the roller height 

adjustment screws clockwise until the top and 
middle rollers just barely touch.  The light 
between the rollers should just disappear. 

2.  Additional pressure may be required depending on 

the results from running test prints. 

3.  Close the lacquer container door.
