    THREADING LAMINATING FILM 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 3 on the next page.

    9. If you are not ready to laminate, press the heater “Cold” button to turn off the heaters ADJUSTING MANDREL/FILM TENSION Each type of laminating film has different characteristics and may require laminator adjustment.

    PROBLEM: Plastic is not bonding to the item or to itself at the edges. ACTION: Make sure rollers are at proper operating temperature and speed and have had time to warm up. Decrease the speed to allow more time for the heated rollers to reach their set temperature.
