ARING FOR THE
44DT L
AMINATOR
The only maintenance required by the operator
is to periodically clean the rollers. The following
procedure will help keep them free of dirt and
adhesive, which has been deposited along the edge
of the laminating film. Proper alignment of the rolls of
film reduces the amount of adhesive on the rollers.
Perform only the routine maintenance procedures
referred to in these instructions.
WARNINGS:
Do not attempt to service or repair the laminator.
Do not apply any cleaning fluids or solvents to the
rollers. Some solvents and fluids could ignite on
heated rollers.
Keep fingers and hands away from the rollers
when 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.
Failure to observe these warnings could result in
severe personal injury or death or damage the
machine.
