C. SAFETY SHIELD AND FEED TRAY SENSORS
Both the safety shield and feed tray activate sensors that allow the bottom roller to feed film when
they are properly installed. Removal or misalignment of either or both of these items will cause the
LED light to turn on and stop the rollers from feeding even when rollers are engaged. This is a safety
feature that prevents fingers or any loose articles like neckties or straps from getting accidentally
trapped in between the rollers and causing injury or property damage.
D. TEMPERATURE CONVERSION
This machine can display temperatures in either Celsius or Fahrenheit. To change to either one, simply
press and hold the “TEMP/SET” arrow keys simultaneously.
E. GUIDE PLATES
This machine is equipped with guide plates on the left and right sides of the feed tray for proper
alignment of materials to be laminated. Aside from being able to laminate 27" wide sheets one at a time,
the user can also laminate up to two (2) 8.5"x11" prints simultaneously in either orientation by aligning
them on each of the plates on both sides of the tray.
F. REVERSE FUNCTION
The machine is equipped with a “REVERSE” function. By pressing the “REVERSE” key, the
machine will release the documents out from the front of the machine to prevent any jam or damage.
G. MOUNTING FUNCTION
This machine is equipped with a mounting function. The user can choose to mount prints or posters
using up to 9/16” thick material.
1. First, set up the machine based on the mounting application to be used:
a. For simultaneous mounting and encapsulating using thermal film, simply set the machine up
for 2-SIDED LAMINATION.
b. For simultaneous mounting and 1-sided lamination using nylon or thermal film, set the
machine up for 1-SIDED LAMINATION and turn the bottom roller heater switch to the
“off” position.
c. For using either pouch boards or foam boards with heat activated adhesives, no film needs to
be installed. Please consult pouch board supplier for ideal activation temperature of their
adhesives.
d. For cold mounting only using self stick boards that have liners, care and precision must be
exercised as this has a tendency to produce wrinkles and/or uneven positioning when the print
is not properly set. There is no need for film to be threaded onto the machine and no heat is
