FILM TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The film should be taut. A properly adjusted roll of film should not
require excessive force to turn by hand. Film tension should be
enough to introduce a minor amount of drag as the film unrolls.
Insufficient tension causes wrinkles while too much tension
causes stretching (necking). Uneven tension between the top and
bottom rolls create curl. Too much upper tension creates upward
curl while too much bottom tension causes downward curl.
1. To adjust the bottom brake. Push and hold the brake lever,
(Figure 10), located on the left side frame by the roll of film.
Rotate the roll of film until the lever engages the internal
mechanism.
2. Refer to Figure 10 for the proper rotation of the film to
increase or decrease the tension.
3. Release the brake lever and check the tension by rotating
the roll of film. Resistance should be slight, not forced.
4. To adjust the top brake repeat steps 1 through 3.
5. Laminate some test samples to check for proper tension.
Further adjust if necessary.
CAUTION: Make sure safety shield and feed tray are
!
in the proper position to operate the unit.
OPERATION
Turn the power switch on. The power switch is located at the rear
of the machine. When the power switch is in the ON position, the
power indicator light on the control panel will be illuminated.
The laminator is now heating.
Use the Lamination Guide to select the correct speed for
your application.
When the laminator reaches operating temperature, the "Ready"
light on the control panel will be illuminated. Wait an additional
five minutes to allow for full heat saturation of the rollers.
This will insure good quality lamination.
Position the item(s) to be laminated on the Feed Table.
Push the "Run" button located on the control panel to run
laminating.
CLEARING A FILM JAM (Wrap-up)
Film jams (wrap-up) may occur if the film is loaded on backwards
or if the area at which film exits the equipment is blocked. The
film, when jammed, wraps around heat or pull rollers. To clear a
jam it is necessary to rotate the rollers in the reverse direction.
When pressed, REVERSE on the control panel will cause the
rollers to go in reverse. To clear a jam:
1. Immediately stop the laminator by pressing STOP.
2. Set the speed indicator to "1".
3. Remove the feed tray and safety shield.
4. Cut the top and bottom film webs.
5. Grasp the loose ends of the web, pull straight out, install the
feed tray so the web is on top of the tray. Turn speed control to
"I", then press REVERSE and guide the film out of the
laminator.
6. Once the jam has cleared the heat shoes, press STOP.
7. Thread the film per section FILM LOADING & THREADING.
