4.2.1 Slow-mode
The machine has a slow-mode, which can be activated by pressing the foot switch. To maintain slow-
mode, keep the foot switch pressed. Slow-mode must be used when the In-feed Table is in the upper
position. Slow mode is recommended whenever running material with the Image Guide removed.
The speed can be adjusted when running in slow mode. The speed can be adjusted down to zero, but
cannot be adjusted any higher than maximum allow in slow mode (1 mpm or 3 fpm). The position of
the speed pot will be about the same as in normal mode to produce the same speed. Another benefit
to this feature is the speed will not increase if going slower the preset maximum speed when entering
slow mode.
WARNING:
IF RUNNING IN SLOW-MODE, INTERRUPTING THE PHOTO ELECTRIC EYES
DOES NOT STOP THE MACHINE. IN SLOW-MODE, AN AUDIBLE BEEP WILL BE
HEARD, AND THE ROLLER SPEED WILL BE DECREASED. RELEASING THE
FOOT SWITCH STOPS THE MACHINE.
To Change from slow-mode to normal run mode without stopping (to prevent a stop mark):
During slow mode (keep the foot switch pressed), press and hold the (forward) button on the
control panel.
Next, release the foot switch. The machine will run at the pre-set speed.
Finally, release the (forward) button.
To Change from normal run mode to slow-mode without stopping:
Press the foot switch
Note: Releasing the foot switch will stop the machine.
4.2.2 Reversing the machine
WARNING:
KEEP CLEAR OF THE REAR SIDE NIP WHEN RUNNING IN REVERSE MODE.
To reverse the rotation of the rollers, press the (reverse) button. As long as the button is pressed,
the machine will run in reverse direction, at a speed of about 1 m/min. Releasing the button will stop
the machine.
The rotation of the rollers will stop when:
The photoelectric eyes in front of the main rollers are interrupted.
Note: This does NOT happen when the foot switch is used (slow-mode).
An emergency stop button is pressed.
The foot switch is pressed for a short moment.
Excessive unwind tensions are set (the motor will be shut off electronically and the forward LED
will blink, press the stop button on the control panel to reset).
The stop button on the control panel is pressed.

4.2.3 Unwind brakes
Tighten the unwind brake so that it applies sufficient tension to laminate. Turning the knurled brake
collar in a counter-clockwise direction increases the breaking tension applied on the laminate. Turning
the collar clockwise decreases the tension. The best setting for the brake tension is determined by the
materials you are using and is learned through experience.
4.2.4 Roller nip settings
Whenever you mount onto a board, etc., it is important to adjust the rollers to create a gap nearly
equal to the thickness of the substrate being used. This is done so that anything passing between the
rollers will receive the right amount of pressure to prevent damage to the substrate being mounted
(and possibly the rollers).
Turning the Nip Hand Wheel counterclockwise (CCW) lowers the top roller, and clockwise (CW)
raises the top roller.
How to set the nip:
Determine the thickness of the substrate that you will use for mounting. Pre-set the nip height by
turning Nip Hand Wheel CW until the nip height indicator is above the board thickness.
Insert the front edge of the substrate into the nip by hand. Lower the top roller by turning the Nip Hand
Wheel CCW until top roller contacts the substrate with enough pressure that the substrate cannot be
moved side to side. Use reverse button to remove substrate from nip if needed.
To run films, rotate the nip hand wheel CCW until the nip is fully closed then continue until the Nip
Hand Wheel turns freely.
4.2.5 Image guide storage place
When not in use, the Image Guide can be stored on the upper cross brace or alternately on the lower
cross brace(figure 9). Note: Image Guide is optional on some models.

5 APPLICATION PROCESSES
5.1 Principle of a Process
In all processes the materials are fed through the nip from the front side to be joined together by
pressure.
A process that makes maximum use of the machine is shown in Figure 10. Shown is a double sided
laminating (decaling) process.
The top coating film is a pressure sensitive film with release liner (3) taken from a supply roll on the
(rear) upper unwind shaft (5). The bottom coating film is a pressure sensitive (mounting) film taken
from a supply roll on the lower unwind shaft (7). Some models have a splitter bar (8) to help in the
removal of release liners.
Figure 10: Creating a Decal.
The image that has to be laminated is fed between the main rollers (1) via the in-feed table (2).
When using a pressure sensitive laminate, it often has a release liner (3) that has to be removed.
This release liner is rolled up onto the wind-up shaft (4) in the upper section.
A mounting film has adhesive on both sides and release liner on just one side. This release liner has
to stay on until the image is mounted.
The following steps outline the basic procedure that has to be used for loading materials, webbing the
laminator and setting the brake tension for the materials you will be using. To load and unload the
material shafts, it is necessary to access the machine from the rear side.

5.2 Loading the machine
Select the film(s) that you will use on the top (and bottom) of the images. It is best practice to make
sure that both laminate and media are matched in size to prevent problems when laminating. This
way the media can be trimmed with a border, but waste is reduced.
Always work in the center of the machine.
Figure 11: Interlock up Figure 12: Interlock down
5.2.1 Removing an unwind shaft
Remove the desired supply shaft (top or bottom) by pushing the interlock bracket (1) to the up
position (Figure 11).
Slide the autogrip shaft to the right against the spring pressure.
Lift the leftside of the shaft away from the laminator first then the right.
5.2.2 Loading shaft with film rolls
The film roll is put on the shaft depending on the type of film and the use in the upper or lower section
of the machine. In general, pressure sensitive film with release liner (A) is rolled up with the liner (3)
and adhesive (2) to the outside of the film (1), whereas film without release liner (C) has its adhesive
layer to the inside of the film. However, North American pressure sensitive films, in general, have the
release liner on the inside of the film (B).
Figure 13: Film rolls.
In the upper section, the adhesive (2) side in contact with the image and the release liner (3) must
be on the top when unwinding the film to the front of the machine.
In the lower section, the adhesive (2) side in contact with the image must be on the bottom when
unwinding the film to the front of the machine.
