Film Loading & Threading - GBC 5031TS ROLL Instruction Manual

GBC 5031TS
JOB MEMORY RECALL
The 5031TS laminators come with a unique feature called, "Job Memory Recall", which allows the operator to
pre-program and automatically recall nine (9) different heat and speed settings. JOB allows the laminator to be
programmed automatically, recalling repeat jobs for frequently used heat and speed settings. When a
temperature or speed setting is changed in a pre-selected JOB number, it will automatically be stored in that
number until a new setting is selected. The job numbers and their respective heat/speed setting are displayed
in the LCD readout. To program a setting:
1. Select a job number by pressing JOB
Panel.
2. Select the desired temperature for the Top and Bottom heat shoes, using the
the both shoes.
3. Select the desired temperature for the nip rollers, using the buttons
4. Select the speed of the motor by pressing SPEED up/down arrows.
5. The heat and speed settings will be retained in memory when the laminator is turned off. The JOB
button will automatically recall the settings every time that particular job number is selected.
You may change the settings of the job number at any given time by repeating the above steps
FEED TABLE REMOVAL
To remove the Feed Table, follow these steps:
1. Remove the safety shield.
2. Lift the table up and then pull back about two inches.
3. Push the table down and pull out, away from the laminator.
FILM LOADING AND THREADING
Poly-In
Adhesive will deposit on the rollers if:
- Only one roll is used.
- Rolls with different widths are loaded together.
- Either roll is loaded adhesive side against the shoe and nip roller.
- One or both rolls of film are allowed to run completely off its core.
Before we start discussing loading/threading films, you need to be knowledgeable on a few terms.
A. Poly-In films: (Poly-In Films always unroll from the bottom)
The adhesive side of the film is rolled on the inside of the roll.
B. Poly-Out films: (Poly-Out films always unroll from the top)
The adhesive side of the film is rolled on the outside of the roll.
Where most laminators use either Poly-In OR Poly-Out the 5031TS laminators are capable of using both
"Poly-In" and "Poly-Out" films. The dull side of the film is the "adhesive" side – the shiny side of clear film must
contact the heat shoes, with the adhesive side facing away from the shoe. Use extreme caution when loading
de-lustered (matte) film, as both sides appear dull. If necessary, place a small piece of film near the outer edge
of the heat shoe to determine the side that is coated with adhesive.

Poly-Out
until the desired number is displayed on the Control
The top and bottom rolls of laminating film must be
of the same width and be present simultaneously.
A small amount of adhesive will "squeeze out"
during lamination, where the top and bottom rollers
meet at both sides of the film web. Hardened
adhesive deposits can damage the nip rollers. To
avoid any damage, preheat the rollers before
cleaning them.
