WARNING: Keep your fingers and hands away
from the nip point while the machine is running.
They could be trapped and crushed in the rollers.
Clothing, jewelry, and long hair could be caught in
the rollers and pull you into them.
Release the card and watch the leading edge of
the card to ensure that it enters the nip area of
the rollers squarely and is being pulled into the
laminator.
The card will guide the film webs into the rollers.
