    Congratulations on your purchase of the MightyLam 2700 Roll Laminator. This unit is designed to provide years of trouble-free service.

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Heat Control Your new MightyLam 2700 has digital heat controllers for each heat shoe.

Both controllers have been calibrated to accurately display the heat shoe temperature in the laminating range.

    These instructions apply to poly-in film rolls (shiny side out, dull side in). 1. For the top supply roll place the mandrel ends into the slots in the top of the laminator. If you are facing the front of the laminator the film should unwind toward you from the bottom of the roll as in figure below.
  • Page 9 Push the cardboard and film into the laminating rollers. See figure 5. Watch cardboard pass through the back (pull) rollers to avoid a wrap-around. 7. When the feed card has completely exited the pull rollers at the rear of the laminator turn the motor switch off. 8. Replace the feed table.

    Adjusting Slitter Blades The slitter (figure 8) may be set to trim the web to the desired width as it exits the laminator. If an additional slitter blade is installed (optional), two pages (side-by-side) may be laminated and trimmed in a single operation. (As the web exits the unit, these pages may then be separated with the additional slitter blade).

    Caution! Do not allow the temperature to exceed 350°F as this could cause the laminating film to melt on the heat shoes. 2. Adjust the Paper Guide on the Feed Table so that the right edge of the item will enter the laminator at the desired position.
