tIps
• Make sure the upper and lower films are
aligned to reduce the adhesive getting on the
rollers.
• Only run the laminator as fast as the heat can
recover. Speeds vary from one film thickness
to the other.
• Fans can be used if the laminate needs to be
cooled while exiting the Pull Rollers.
• Adjust the Pull Roller clutch and brakes to
fine-tune the output.
• Sometimes it is easier to insert a piece of
media that will go all the way through both
sets of rollers. Tack the trailing edge to the
film, lower the rollers, and then press RUN.
