FEATURES & TIPS

Advanced Pouch Tracking System
This feature will detect and alert the user if there is a misfeed or the document has not gone completely through the machine in normal operating time, and automatically reverse the document until the jam is cleared. This feature will also track the pouch as it is going through the machine and let the user know when the machine is ready for the next pouch.

AutoSense
The unique system detects pouch thickness and self-adjusts to optimal lamination settings.

’Reverse’ function
To eject the laminating pouch during use, press and hold down the reverse button until the pouch has ejected from the machine.

Light Guide
This feature acts as a performance indicator using different color lights to guide the user through their lamination process.
Solid Yellow: Laminator is heating up or cooling down Solid Green: Laminator is ready for the pouch to be inserted Pulsing Green: Lamination is in progress
Flashing Red:  Laminator is jammed & auto-reversing. Laminator will return to solid green once the jam is cleared
Pulsing Blue: Laminator is in cleaning cycle
*Only when a Fellowes cleaning sheet is used will the Light Guide pulse blue. For all other brands, machines will pulse green when the cleaning sheet is inserted.

Clean Alert System

This feature reminds the user to clean the laminator rollers for jam-free performance.

• The Clean Alert button will light up white notifying the user to clean the laminator rollers.
• When the machine is warm, run a cleaning sheet through the machine to clean any residue off the rollers. It’s recommended to use the front and back sides of the cleaning sheet to run through the machine twice.
• The Clean Alert light will auto reset only when used with a Fellowes cleaning sheet. To manually reset this function, simply press the Clean Alert button, and the light will shut off.

Although the Clean Alert system can be bypassed, it is recommended that cleaning sheets are used with the machine regularly to ensure optimal
performance. (Cleaning sheet order #5320603)

‘Auto Shut-off’ function

If the machine is not active for 30 minutes, the ‘Auto Shut-Off’ function will place the machine into standby mode. To operate the machine, press the ‘Power On’ button on the control panel

• For best results, use Fellowes ® brand thermal pouches:
  Enhance 80, Impress 100, Capture 125, Protect 175, Preserve 250, and Cold Pouches.

• This machine does not need a carrier to laminate. It is a carrier-free mechanism.

• Always put the item to be laminated into the appropriately sized pouch.

• Always test laminate with a similar size and thickness before the final process.

• Prepare pouch and item for lamination. Place the item within the pouch centered and touching the leading sealed edge. Ensure the pouch is not too large for the item.

• If required, trim excess material from around the item after lamination and cooling.

BEFORE LAMINATING

1. Ensure the machine is on a stable surface.

2. For best results, use the integrated exit tray. This machine is equipped with an exit tray extension. To open, simply glide each extension inward from the extension slots located on the exit tray.

3. Check there is enough clear space (min 50 cm) behind the machine to allow items to pass through freely.

4. Plug the machine into an easily accessible main outlet. The machine will automatically power on when plugged in.
   STEPS TO LAMINATE

5. The machine will automatically begin warming up to hot lamination and the Light Guide will turn solid yellow until readyNote:
   • The laminator features AutoSense which automatically recognizes the pouch thickness inserted into the laminator.

6. When the machine is ready to laminate, the Light Guide will turn solid green to indicate the user can insert the pouch.

7. Place the pouch, sealed edge first, into the pouch slot. Keep the pouch straight and central within the document entry slot, not on an angle. Use the entry markings as a guide. The Light Guide will pulse green when lamination is in process and will return to solid green when it is acceptable to feed another pouch.

8.  This unit is equipped with an Advanced Pouch Tracking System that will detect and alert the user if there is a misfeed. If a jam is detected the Light Guide will flash red, and the machine will beep as it automatically reverses the document to help clear the jam. The reverse button will come on while auto-reverse is engaged. After this, if the jam is not completely cleared the reverse button will blink/flash. Press and hold the reverse button while pulling on the pouch to completely remove the laminate from the machine. Once the jam is cleared the Light Guide will return to solid green.

9.  Upon exit, the laminated pouch may be hot and soft. For the best quality and to prevent jamming remove the pouch immediately.
   Place the pouch onto a flat surface to cool. Take care when handling a hot pouch. Always remove laminated documents before starting the next laminate. For best performance/results, use the exit tray.

10. For cold laminates, press the cold lamination button. The Light Guide will turn yellow as the machine cools down. Note: to use the cold setting after hot lamination you may have to wait for the laminator to cool down for 30 – 60 minutes. Once the machine has cooled down and is ready for cold lamination, the Light Guide will turn solid green to indicate the user can insert the pouch.

11. To switch back to hot lamination after cold laminating, press the hot lamination button. Wait until the Light Guide turns solid green before inserting the pouch.
