LX-570
The LX-570 applies an adhesive, laminate, or
magnetic backing to an item without using heat or
electricity. You choose a backing by swapping the
drop-in cartridge.
The LX-570 comes with a starter cartridge already
installed. This cartridge applies a permanent
adhesive backing and is shorter than replacement
cartridges.
See the reverse for available cartridges and for
application ideas on using your LX-570. First, take a
few minutes to read these instructions.

About the LX-570
Top Cover. Your LX-570
comes with a "starter"
cartridge already
installed, which applies a
permanent adhesive
backing to an item.
Feed Deck. The LX-570 is designed for
use with items up to five inches wide. It
works best with item thicknesses
between 20 pound bond paper and 100
pound card stock or construction paper
(min. thickness is 0.004 inches, max.
thickness is 0.010 inches).
Cut:
2
When the item clears the cutter at the exit
area, gently push down on the cutter knob
and slide it all the way to the left or right.
To avoid wasting the backing material,
note the location of the cut. Feed only
enough material to clear the cutter.
Insert a cartridge:
2
Open the top cover and lower
the cartridge in with the label up,
facing the feed deck.
As you lower the cartridge, be
sure that the backing material
fits underneath the cutter bar at
the exit area.
Close the top cover by gently
pushing down until it clicks and
is fully seated.
Cutter. The cutter is for trimming the
backing material and slides on the
cutter bar. It can be replaced.

When Using the
Starter Cartridge...
Feed and cut the item as described here. Be
sure to feed face up.
Press down firmly around all the edges. This
action prevents adhesive from remaining on
the front of the item. Then remove the clear
film and discard carefully as it is sticky.
When you are ready to place the item on a
surface, peel it from the white backing.
This starter cartridge contains five feet of
backing material. After you use it a few times,
always make certain that it contains sufficient
material. If uncertain, install a new cartridge
to avoid partial processing.
Note: the starter cartridge is shorter than the
replacement cartridges. See the other side
for cartridge descriptions and lengths. Always
consult packaging of replacement cartridges.
