Clearing A Film Jam - GBC Arctic Titan 165 Manual

Film jams (wrap-ups) may occur if the film is loaded backwards or it if the area at which
film exits the equipment is blocked. The film, when jammed, wraps around the rollers. To clear
a jam it is necessary to rotate the rollers in the reverse direction. When pressed, the REVERSE
button on the control panel will cause the rollers to reverse.
To clear a jam:
1. Immediately stop the laminator by pressing STOP.
2. Cut the film web between the supply roll and the rollers.
3. Grasp the loose ends of the web, pull straight, and install the feed tray so the web is on
top of the tray. Replace the safety shield. Press and hold down the RUN and
REVERSE buttons together; guide the film out of the rollers from the front side.
4. Once the jam has cleared the heat rollers, press the STOP button.
5. Thread the film per section FILM LOADING AND THREADING.
