Operating the laminating device
1. Cold laminating
Plug the laminating device’s plug into the power
supply socket. Switch on the device using the
power supply switch (1). The green light designating
“POWER” shines, showing that the device is switched
on. Set the selector switch (2) on the front-side of
the device to COLD. The yellow light designating
“COLD” shines. Place the material to be laminated in
a suitably sized lm pouch and feed it into the lami-
nating device. The laminating can now take place
automatically.
2. Hot laminating
Plug the laminating device’s plug into the power supply socket. Switch on the device using the
power supply switch (1). The green light designating “POWER” shines, showing that the device is
switched on. Set the selector switch (2) on the upper cover to HOT. The motor starts to run and
the device warms up to its operating temperature. The red light shines after a warm-up phase of
4–8 minutes; the rollers have now reached their operating temperature. Place the material to be
laminated in a suitably sized lm pouch. Then feed the lm pouch into the laminating device’s
infeed opening. The laminating can now take place automatically. Ensure that the material being
laminated lies directly on the fold of the lm pouch prior to the laminating. The lm pouch must
be fed into the laminating device with the fold in front.
In order to prevent creasing do not feed the lm pouch in with the open side facing into the
laminating device. Thus the pocket should not be cut-off prior to being used. Pay attention to
the pictograph on the infeed opening in order to ensure that the lm pouch is fed into the device
correctly.
3. Additional processing of the laminated lm pouch
When the lm pouch comes out of the machine after the laminating process it is very hot and can
easily lose its shape. Take great care when removing the lm pouch to prevent injury to oneself
or damage to the lm pouch. Place a book or other heavy object upon the lm pouch prior to it
cooling down. This will ensure a smooth and perfect surface.
4. Laminating device maintenance
The rollers should always be cleaned after use because the laminating performance sinks propor-
tionally with the amount of residue left on the rollers. Feed in a folded A4 sized piece of paper in
the laminating device opening. Carry out the normal laminating cycle as already described. The
residue on the rollers will now transfer and stay on the paper. Repeat this process a few times
until the rollers are completely clean. Caution: do not use fax paper when cleaning the rollers.
It is too smooth and too thin and can thus roll off the rollers too easily.
Clean the device’s housing and covers with a soft cloth and a mild soap. Caution: Switch off the
device and pull the plug out of the power supply prior to cleaning. The device must be completely
dry prior to being used for laminating again!
If the paper gets jammed and blocks the movement of the rollers because the paper can not be
pulled out of the device, switch the machine off immediately and pull out the plug. Then contact
your local laminating device representative or the local service partner.
