Operation Instructions for Release Liner Rewind (optional)

This laminator is equipped with the features necessary to allow the use of
pressure sensitive film with release for single side lamination. The Release Liner
Rewind will remove the release from the film and wind the waste onto an
empty core, which can then be disposed.
The pressure sensitive film should be mounted on the upper supply roll and
threaded under the idler shaft. An empty film core should be mounted on the
Waste Rewind mandrel, and the mandrel mounted onto the laminator. A
section of scrap media that is at least as wide as the film in use should be
started into the front rollers of the laminator. Separate the release from the
film for a length of about 6 inches, and mount the exposed portion of the film
to the media that has been started into the machine. Bring the end of the
release under and up to the Waste Rewind mandrel, and tape the release to
the spare core that has been installed to the mandrel. The Waste Rewind
mandrel may be rotated by hand to assist in the start up. Slowly advance the
motor of the laminator guiding the film and media to the rear rollers, while
insuring the release is firmly attached to the Waste Rewind core.
The separation point for the film and release should be between the idler shaft
and the point were the film contacts the heat shoe. The separation point can
be adjusted by the tension knob on the Waste Rewind drive shaft. If the
separation point is past the point were the film contacts the heat shoe, tighten
the tension knob slowly until the separation point moves towards the idler
shaft. If the separation point approaches the Waste Rewind mandrel or the
idler shaft, loosen the tension knob slowly until the separation moves towards
the heat shoe. The tension setting should need very little adjustment once set,
but should be monitored during operation.
Once the separation point is set, lamination is performed normally. Care
should be taken to minimize the gap between successive pieces of media
being laminated so that the adhesive from the film is in contact with the lower
roll as little as possible.
