1-2 Features & Benefits 
 
Your new laminator has several standard features that set it apart from other models. 
 
•
The clear safety shield keeps fingers away from the head shoes and laminating rollers 
while allowing you to see your work. 
•
The easily accessible heat control permits the use of many different types of thermal 
laminating film from 1.5 to 5 mil thick. 
•
Ease of cleaning. The silicone rubber rollers and the Teflon-coated heat shoes of the 
laminator should be cleaned regularly 
•
Tension control knobs are built into both supply roll mandrels so that wrinkles and 
curling in the film can be elimated. 
•
Ease of maintenance. The Educator is made to last, however, some items on a 
laminator do wear out. Even the high-quality silicone rubber used in the rollers will 
lose flexibility over time. Extensive use may wear out the rollers on an operator may 
cut a roller by accident. Rollers and other key parts can be changed quickly without 
disassembling the frame. 
•
Reverse can be invaluable at times to help avoid problems or clear misfeeds.
•
Silicone rubber laminating rollers are flexible enough to provide good edge seal and 
firm enough to offer a good surface seal. A high silicone content insures a much 
longer average roller life. They can accommodate poster board or other materials up 
to 1/8” thick. 
•
Very strong steel cores prevent roller flexing and insure uniform pressure across the 
width of the laminate, giving you the best quality lamination available in medium-
duty commercial machine. 
•
Zippy safety cutter is shipped with the laminator to allow quick and easy cutting and 
trimming of the lamination web. 
•
Removable power cord prevents unauthorized usage without locking away the whole 
machine. 
•
100% made in the U.S.A.
