Troubleshooting
Overview
Before any troubleshooting is made on the quality of the finished film, please confirm the following
1. The rollers are clean and do not have excessive adhesive deposits.
2. The film used is of the same type, manufacture, thickness and temperature range.
3. Allow the laminator to cool to room temperature with the rollers gapped and then reheat - this
will dissipate any cold or hot spots or rollers of unequal temperatures.
4. Make sure that the electrical circuit the laminator is connected to is of sufficient power and
dedicated - This will prevent fuses from blowing and breakers from tripping.
5. Quickly inspect the laminator and its components for obvious failures or any broken
components, i.e., Broken mandrel clips-loose or misaligned towers, functional idler rollers, ECT.
