Laminator

The laminator can complete hot and cold lamination:
In the case of hot lamination, the lamination foil is adhered together.
In the case of cold lamination, the lamination foil is pressed together.
Select the lamination method according to the material to be laminated.
Note: Only cold lamination should be used for thermopaper and
ultrasonic images!

Caution: The lamination foil is very hot and soft when ejected
following lamination. Therefore, handle the laminated document with
due care!
Note: To flatten and smoothen the laminated product, place a book or
similar heavy, flat object on it.

and remove the power plug from the power socket. Let the device cool
down before packing it away, for example.
Caution: The device is very hot directly after laminating! Risk of
injury!
6.1.2

Cold laminating

Attention: If you have just finished using the laminator for hot
laminating, you must let the laminator cool down. It takes about 30
minutes to cool down sufficiently.
1. Set the function switch, located at the top of the device on the right-hand
side, to COLD.
Note: Only use cold lamination foil for cold laminating.
2. Remove the protective foil from the lamination foil.
3. Insert the document to be laminated in the lamination foil so that there is
a margin of approx. 3 - 5 mm to the edge of the foil on all sides.
4. Guide the laminating foil containing the document to be laminated in the
laminator infeed with the closed side first. The laminating process occurs
automatically.
Note: To prevent the lamination foil from creasing, never feed the
open side of the lamination foil first in the laminator infeed. When
inserting the lamination foil, observe the instructions on the infeed slot.
