IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This safety alert symbol precedes any safety message in this manual. This
symbol indicates a potential safety hazard that could hurt you or others, as well
as result in product and/or property damage. Please read carefully.
Do not attempt to service or otherwise repair this laminator. Please have it
serviced by a qualified service professional.
Do not connect the laminator to an electrical supply or attempt to operate the
laminator until you have completely read these instructions.
INTRODUCTION
Running the machine in reverse when there is film on the front rollers, especially
hot film can cause a wrap-around. This can cause the film to displace the
temperature sensor away from the roller causing the heat controller to receive
and display an incorrect reading. This may result in overheating of the rollers
and possibly damage.
Before reversing the machine to remove a wrap-around, cut the film from the
supply roll and pull the film away from the front rollers.
To avoid any damage, please do not use razors or sharp objects near the rollers.
It is best to not leave machine on when not in use or turn the heat down to
prolong the life of the rollers and avoid damage.

IMPORTANT SAFEGAURDS
For your protection, do not connect the laminator to electrical power or attempt to operate it
until you read these instructions completely. Keep these instructions in a convenient location
for future reference. This instruction manual and labels affixed to the laminator are important
safety messages. Read these messages carefully.
• Use this laminator only for its intended purposes as according to the specifications
outlined in this instruction manual.
• Keep hands, long hair, loose clothing and articles such as ties and necklaces away from
the pull rollers.
• Avoid contact with heated rollers during operation and shortly after operations as heated
rollers can reach temperatures in excess of 300°F and can cause burns. Allow the rollers
to cool before touching.
• Place laminator on a sturdy cart, stand, or table. A laminator placed on an unstable
surface may fall, causing serious bodily injury. Move laminator with caution. Quick stops,
excessive force, or uneven floor surfaces may cause the laminator and cart to overturn.
• Unplug laminator before moving, or when not in use for an extended period of time.
• Never override or attempt to defeat electrical or mechanical interlock devices.
• Never insert objects or spill liquids in or on the laminator. They may contact dangerous
voltage points or short out components that could result in fire or electrical shock.
• Do not overload electrical outlets as this can potentially lead to fire or shock.
• The laminator should only be operated from the type of power source indicated in these
Operating Instructions and on the data plate located on the rear panel of the laminator.
• The three-pronged grounding plug is a safety feature and will only fit into a grounding-
type power outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into an outlet, contact a qualified
electrician to have a suitable outlet installed.
• Do not leave the laminator power on overnight. Unplug the laminator at the end of the
day.
• Unplug the laminator before moving it or when it is not in use for an extended period of
time as a precaution against the possibility of an internal malfunction that could create a
fire hazard.
• Never attempt to open or otherwise repair the machine. Unplug the laminator from the
electrical outlet and contact an authorized service representative under any of the
following conditions:
o The power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
o If liquid has been spilled into the laminator or it has been exposed to water.
o If the laminator has been subjected to excessive jarring through being dropped or
bumped.
o If the laminator does not operate normally when following the operating
instructions.

Unpacking and Assembly…
• Inspect shipping container and unit for signs of damage. Notify carrier and dealer
immediately should any damage be noted.
• Retain packaging in case you need to return the machine for repair.
• This machine is big and bulky. Use two people when removing the machine from the
shipping container.
• Place the laminator on a flat and stable surface that is capable of supporting the weight
of the machine.
• Position the laminator so as to allow film exiting the machine to drop freely to the floor.
• Connect power cord to an appropriate power source.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (Continued)
• Do not operate the laminator with a damaged power supply cord or plug, or after it
malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner.
• Keep the power cord away from hot or wet surfaces
• Do not overload electrical outlets beyond their capacity as this can result in fire or
electrical shock. This unit is rated at 15A and should be the only item plugged into a
15A. When connected to a 20A branch, any items in addition to the Laminator must not
exceed 4A.
• Adjust only those controls that are specified in these Operating Instructions.
INITIAL SETUP
8
Heat Shield: Protects against accidental contact with heated rollers
Feed Table: Surface used to position documents to be laminated
Supply Mandrels: Metal rods that hold film supply rolls in place; two rolls of laminating film with the
same width must be present while laminating; failing to do so will result in damage to the machine
Supply Mandrel Washers: Ensures that film is securely in place on the supply mandrel
Heated Rollers: Silicon rubber coated steel rollers that simultaneously compress and heat the adhesive
of laminating film onto the document as it passes through the laminator.
Pull Rollers: Located at the rear of the laminator; these rollers pull the laminated document through
the laminator.
Tension Adjustment Knobs: Screws located near the supply roll that when tightened increase tension.
Rubber Foot: Provides nonslip grip for laminator
Idler Bars: Located close to supply rolls; used to direct film to heated rollers
Rear Horizontal Trimmer: Used to trim lamination after it exits the rear of the laminator; trimmer
contains a sharp blade and must be used with caution; only on PLUS and PRO models
Power On/Off Switch: Located in the rear of the machine; flip switch to “ON” position to power on
laminator
