Operation instruction
The laminator is suitable for both cold and hot laminating. The 2 speed settings offers optimal
result for various pouch thicknesses. This manual will explain you how to utilize the various set-
tings and how to utilize the product correctly.
OPERATION INSTRUCTION
1. Connect power cord to appropriate power source. Make sure that the hot/cold button (5)
is set correctly. Rotate the switch (4) into the desired micron setting (80-125). For cold
lamination, ALWAYS place switch (4) to 125 mic. Choose 125 micron when laminating with 100
micron pouches.
2. When the laminator reaches laminating temperature, the indicator READY (3) becomes green.
3. Centre the laminating item into a laminating pouch (max. 125 micron) so that the borders are
even on all the sides (Figure 2). The suggested margin between the content and the sealed
edge is no larger than 3 mm; the suggested margin in the left, right, and the open end is
larger than 3 mm (Figure 3). Never laminate a small object in a large pouch because
excessive plastic will melt, and eventually scorch, as there is no document in between to
capture the heat. The rollers will get stuck and your laminator will need to be repaired (be-
yond warranty).
4. The material that is to be laminated, is not allowed to be thicker than 0,6 mm including the film.
5. Insert the pouch with the item, sealed-edge first, straight into the laminator inlet (1). Hold
the pouch until the machine pulls it in.
6. The laminated item will automatically exit the outlet (2) of the pouch laminator. After the
pouch has stopped moving, the pouch can be removed.
7. If you finish the laminating, move the switch (4) to "off" position.
PRECAUTION
1. If the laminator is turned on and has not been used for more than an hour, excessive heat
may have created in the machine. To avoid overheating and its consequent inferior laminat-
ing result, insert a piece of copy paper into the machine to remove the excessive heat before
your formal laminating.
2. As soon as the lamination of the picture is finished, remove the laminated picture immedi-
ately to prevent the pouch from curling due to overheating.
3. If white spots appear on the laminated pictures, it means the temperature is not high enough.
Turn the front end behind and insert the picture into the machine to laminate one more time.
4. The picture has to be laminated on both sides. One side lamination is prohibited to prevent
film from being rolled into the machine.
5. DO NOT insert the open end of the pouch into the machine to prevent it from being rolled into
the machine.
6. There are vent holes in the bottom of the laminators. Make sure the holes are not fully cov-
ered when the machine is operated to avoid overheating.
7. It is recommended to switch off the machine for 30 minutes, after it has been operating for a
period of approximately 2 hours.
8. Only activate the pouch thickness switch when the appliance is switched on.
9. Do not laminate dirty or damaged pouches.
