Laminating - Banner American Easy-Lam II Operating Instructions Manual

3. Turn the knob clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to
decrease the temperature. If reducing the temperature, wait several
minutes for the heat to drop to the desired operating temperature.
When increasing temperature, the indicator lamp will come on as the
laminator is heating up and go off when it reaches the set temperature.
(Wait 10 minutes between each adjustment before using the laminator.
This will let the heat stabilize).
4. Check the thermometer to see if the desired temperature has been
reached. You may have to make a few minor adjustments before
optimum temperature is set. Most laminating film laminates within a
given temperature range so an exact temperature reading is not
necessary.

Laminating

1. When the motor is first turned on, allow 6" of film to clear heat
shoes for best laminating results.
2. Be sure the heaters have been turned on and are at the proper
temperature.
CAUTION! Do not allow the temperature to exceed 350°F as this
could cause the laminating film to melt on the heat shoes.
3. Adjust the paper guide on the feed table so that the right edge of
the item will enter the laminator at the desired position.
4. Press the motor switch to the "on" position. The film will begin
moving through the laminator.
5. When you begin laminating after the film has been sitting on the
heat shoes for a while, you should let about 6" of the film run through
the machine before you insert an item to be laminated.
6. After clear laminating film exits the pull rollers at the rear of the
machine, you may slide the first item to be laminated into the
laminator with the right edge along the paper guide.
