GENERAL DIAGRAMS The SL27, offers a reverse feature. They are designed to laminate a variety of materials using up to 27” laminating film. The SL27 is capable of lamination from 1 to 9 feet per minute and can be reversed by the push of a button. Tension Adjusting Knobs (L) are conveniently located on the Supply Mandrels (K) on the right side panel for easy access.
I. Unpacking Remove the laminator from its box by grasping the housings and pulling up. Do not use rollers or shafts as handles - this could cause damage. Choose a location for the laminator that is clean, well-lit and draft free.
B. Loading Film: 1” Mandrel (K) Unpack the upper and lower supply man- drels. The upper and lower mandrels are different. The word “TOP” is stamped on the shaft of the upper mandrel and the word “LOW” is stamped on the shaft of the lower mandrel.
C. Threading the Film Remove the feed tray and the heatguard. Thread the film as shown in the figure on the right. Pull the film around the idler rollers as shown. Do not mistake the reinforcing bar for the idler roller. Make sure the glossy and dull sides of the film are as indicated in the diagram.
D. Laminating After the machine is loaded with film (see B. Loading Film: 1” Mandrel) and threaded (see C. Threading the Film), it is ready to laminate. Ensure that the laminator has reached the preset temperature. This will be indicated by the ready light being illu- minated.
Note: As the diameter of the film roll decreases, tension should be reduced. To increase tension, turn the adjusting knob clockwise. To decrease tension, turn the knob counterclock- wise. If the tension is not equal top and bottom, the laminated product will curl. If the material curls up as it comes out of the machine, the top roll is probably tighter than the bottom.

Shut the machine off! SL27’s have set screws at both ends of each laminating and pull roller. With the use of a 3/32 hex key, loosen all four set screws on the pull rollers. Cut the plastic between the lami- nating and pull rollers, grab the loose end and pull.
