    4 sides. If the laminator is back against a wall, the laminating film may back up and jam the equipment. a USI laminator cabinet is an excellent choice for a work area. It can easily be moved and provide sufficient storage for film in the cabinet below.

    UnPacKInG YoUr lamInator Your laminator comes packed in one carton. It contains (1) laminator, (1) heat guard, (1) top supply mandrel, (1) bottom supply mandrel, (1) threading board, (1) feed table with guide, and this operation and maintenance manual. (See diagram page 6) First, open the box.
  • Page 9: Loading Film

    loadInG FIlm COLOR-CODED LAMINATORS & FILM: Select the two rolls of laminating film that you wish to use. Both rolls of film should be of the same size, type and thickness. next, take the bottom supply mandrel (marked with the blue color-code) and insert it into the roll of film so the blue end of the mandrel matches the blue end of the film roll.
  • Page 10: Threading Diagram

    Note: When loading your laminating film, check for film splices. These rolls will be clearly marked. Splices are not common, but are unavoidable. If you find a spliced roll, place it in the top position on the laminator so that the splice can be monitored carefully.
  • Page 11 thread the top roll of film under the idler roller as shown in the threading diagram on previous page (see Figure 10-4). Pull the film down so that the films lead edge is below the lower heat shoe. next thread the bottom roll of film under the lower idler bar pulling film upward until it is even with the top heat shoe (the film will overlap).
  • Page 12: Heat Settings

    HEat SEttInGS Prior to laminating, allow the machine to pre-heat at least 15 minutes in order to stabilize the temperature. temperature settings depend on the film type being used. the temperature is preset at the factory, but may require adjustment depending on what type of film you are using.
  • Page 13 tEnSIon to adjust tension for upper and lower rollers, the laminator must be loaded and heated. remove the heat guard and feed tray. loosen both tension control knobs by turning counterclockwise until there is no tension on upper or lower film rolls. Photos 13-1, 13-2. Film should pull freely.

  • Page 19 STEP 7: to remove the upper roller, slide the roll shaft out of the roller and then lift the top rubber rollers from the laminator (top laminating roller shown). Photos 19-1 and 19-2 Photo 19-1 STEP 8: loosen the set screws of the lower roller sprockets (laminating roller shown) Photo 19-3.
  • Page 20 STEP 11: to install a new roller or replace the original roller, reverse the removal procedure. Be sure to properly reposition the sprockets and align the chain. all three sprockets should be in line with each other. Since the motor sprocket was not removed, use it as a guide for alignment of the pull roll and laminating roll sprockets.
  • Page 21: Pressure Settings

    PrESSUrE the pressure settings for the rubber rollers on USI laminators are preset at the factory and should not require adjusting. In most cases, it is necessary to adjust pressure after the rollers have been removed for service. (Generally this is the only time an adjustment is required.)
