Tips for good results
To
ensure the best possible lamination and
to
avoid any
damage
to
the laminator, please take the following pre-
cautions:
• Laminating pouches are made
of
two sides linked to
each other. Never laminate with only one side
of
a
laminating pouch.
• Always insert laminating pouches into the unit with the
folded side first. Do not insert a laminating pouch until
the previous laminated document has been removed.
• Insert small objects like business cards always in the
middle (below the READY indicator).
• Never laminate empty pouches. Always insert a docu-
ment into the pouch when laminating.
•
Do
not cut the pouch prior to lamination. Trim the
pouch
to
size after lamination.
•
Do
not laminate heat-sensitive, wet, wavy or crinkly
materials.
• Do not laminate materials thicker than specified
in
this
manual.
• Do not laminate metal objects.
• The lamination process is irreversible. Please keep
this in mind when laminating unique pieces.
•
Do
not pull or push the pouch and do not switch
off
the
laminator during normal lamination.
