10. Remove the top film supply shaft from the laminator,
and repeat steps 6 and 7 from above, again making
sure that the film will be rolling off in the correct
manner, depending on which type of film you are using.
11. Install the top film supply shaft by inserting the right end
of the shaft into the brake hub and the Lateral Adjuster
into its cradle. Make sure the two pins of the Lateral
Adjuster are facing out of the cradle. (Fig. 34)
12. Release the brake tension and unroll approximately 2
feet of film. Tape the leading edge of the film to the
idler bar and rotate it to thread the film around the idler
bar and (Fig. 37) Drape the film over the top heat shoe.
13. Slide a sheet of paper, which is long enough to reach
the pull rollers, into the nip rollers so that the paper is
sticking out the front.
14. Tack the sheet of paper to the top piece of film (Fig 38).
15. Bring the bottom piece of film up and tack it to the top
piece of film (Fig 39).
16. Replace the feed tray and safety shield; close the
rollers using the pressure handle and press RUN.
17. Observe the film being pulled through the laminator to
assure that the upper and lower films are advancing
concurrently. Any separation between the films will
require stopping the motor immediately, and correcting
the situation.
18. Adjust the top and bottom brakes to eliminate rivers
and wrinkles in the films as they pass over the heat
shoes.
19. Press STOP once the newly-threaded film web has
completely exited the laminator.
