4.0 Installation
GBC Films Group is committed to a program of ongoing
product improvement. As a result, we are providing these
instructions so you can insure that your new Polaris
Laminator is properly and securely unpacked, moved,
and installed.
Before the Polaris Laminator can be installed, there are a
few requirements that must be met. Make certain that
each of the requirements listed in the following pre-
installation checklist are met before beginning installation.
4.1 Pre-installation
Are doorways and hallways wide enough for the
laminator to be moved to the installation site?
Is there ample room for the laminator?
A work area must be established that allows for
operation in both the front and rear of the
laminator and provides space for efficient material
flow.
Is the environment appropriate for the laminator?
The laminator requires a clean, dust and vapor
free environment to operate properly. It must not
be located where there is air blowing directly on
the machine.
Have you contacted a certified electrician to both
wire the laminator and ensure that adequate power
is being supplied, having the appropriate capacity,
over current protection and safety lockouts are
available?
CAUTION: Too high or too low of an operating
position can lead to serious bodily injury and/ or
cause poor output quality.
1. All support feet should be positioned completely on
the supporting surface.
CAUTION: The laminator is a heavy piece of
equipment and may cause injury and/ or require
extensive repair work if it falls.
The supporting surface may also be strong enough to hold
the material being laminated.
2. The supporting surface should be large enough to
support the feed table and catch table comfortably.
3. Avoid locating the laminator near sources of heat or
cold. Avoid positioning the laminator in the direct path of
forced heated or cooling air.
INFORMATION: This effects the performance of
the heating system and could result in poor output
quality.
