Intended Use

The laminator has been conceived to complete hot lamination using hot laminating pouches and cold lamination using cold laminating pouches with a pouch thickness of 75 – 125 micron. The total thickness of the documents to be laminated (photos, pictures, cards, paper etc.) may be maximally 0.5 mm.
The laminator is only intended for private use in closed, indoor rooms.
Unauthorized modifications or alterations are not permitted. Never open the laminator yourself or attempt to perform repairs yourself. Repairs may only be carried out by properly trained specialists.
Any other use is considered unintended use. Unauthorized modifications or reconstructions are not permitted and lead to loss of rights to claims under the terms of guarantee.

Observe the Safety Information

Read and observe all the warnings to protect yourself and the environment from any harm.

Warning!
Risk of injury through electric shock. Improper handling of the laminator can lead to an electric shock. Ensure that the laminator is set up near an easily accessible power socket so that the laminator can be disconnected from the power supply in an emergency. Never take hold of the laminator with wet hands. Avoid any contact with water.
Always unplug the power plug when the laminator is not being used. Only use the power cable supplied.

Warning!
Risk of suffocation through
small parts, packaging materials or protective foils.
Children can swallow small parts, packaging materials and protective foils.
Keep children away from the laminator and its packaging materials.

Warning!
Risk of injury through the feed mechanism. Loose items could get caught in the insertion slot and cause injuries. Keep fingers, hair, scarves, ties, jewellery etc. well away from the infeed.

Warning!
Risk of tripping due to improperly laid power cable.
Lay the power cable in such a way that nobody can trip over it. Make sure the power plug and cable cannot be damaged.

Warning!
Risk to health through harmful vapours. Vapours which are damaging to  health can develop during lamination. Always ensure good ventilation during lamination, by opening a window for example.

Caution!
Risk of burns through hot machine surface! During the laminating process, the machine surface heats up. Do not touch the machine surface during the laminating operation. Wait a few minutes after laminating until the laminator has cooled down before you touch it.

Caution!
Risk of burns through hot laminating pouch. When the laminating pouch is ejected after lamination, it is extremely hot. Only remove the lamination pouch by holding it at the cooled end.

Caution!
Risk of burns through hot residual laminated material. After cleaning, very hot residual laminated material is stuck to the ejected paper. Only remove the ejected paper holding it at the cooled end.

Important!
Risk of property damage.
Avoid exposing the device to environmental influences such as smoke, dust, vibration, chemicals, moisture, heat or direct sunlight. Only use the laminator in indoor areas and within the ambient conditions permitted and stipulated in “Technical Data”.

Only use the product indoors.

Before You Start

Please observe the following information to ensure continued reliable operation of the laminator.

Information on the Material

  • Do not laminate metal, wet or uneven materials.
  • The material to be laminated, including the laminating pouch, must not be thicker than 0.5 mm.

Information on the Laminating Pouches

  • Only use foil pouches intended for lamination purposes.
    Other types of foil, such as transparent film, are not suitable for laminating.

  • Only use hot laminating pouches for “Hot laminating” operating mode.

  • Only use cold laminating pouches for “Cold laminating” operating mode.

Information on the Laminating Process

  • Do not insert an empty laminating pouch in the infeed (rear) of the laminator.
  • Do not insert a laminating pouch to one side of the infeed (rear) of the laminator.
  • Always insert the laminating pouch with the closed side first, centered and straight into the infeed (rear) of the laminator, which is ready to operate.
