Fujipla LPE-6510 Laminator
Quick Start Guide

Getting Started
Save Your Box

laminator in its original box.
Call for help
During set-up or for problems and questions, call DryLam toll free at 888-
633-1973
We recommend you read the entire operators manual
and watch the included DVD about your machine
before installing and operating your laminator.

Film Supply Shafts
(also called film mandrels)
Film Supply shafts have adjustable
clips in center to allow for variance
in film roll cores that are too large
or too small.
There are 2 clips on each shaft and
are adjustable. Loosen set screw for
clip with Phillips head screwdriver.
Clips slide forward or backward to
accommodate film cores that are
too loose or too tight.
After positioning clips retighten
with screwdriver.

Loading Film
Insert Film shaft into roll film. Core clip on
top of shaft should point towards you.
Film should be positioned so the film unrolls
off of the bottom side of the roll.
If film is loaded on the supply shafts properly,
the top will unroll clockwise, and the bottom
will unroll counter clockwise
As film supply shaft is inserted into roll of
film, twist the supply shaft clockwise to make
entry into the core easier.
Supply shaft should be snug as it is inserted
into the roll. The clip bites into the core to
allow for brake tension to be applied which
helps smooth wrinkles as the film enters the
laminator.
If supply shafts fit too tight, or slides too easily
onto the rolls, then adjustment of the core
clips are necessary (preceding slide).

Loading Film
Film rolls on shafts should be
dropped into supply shaft holders
on top and bottom of the machine.
Make sure film adhesive side (dull
side) is facing out away from heat
shoes.
Prepare to thread film by reviewing
the proper film threading path
diagram in the operator manual or
on the following slide.

Film Threading
Top roll of film goes on top of the top idler
bar.
Bottom roll film goes behind and under the
bottom idler bar.

Film Threading
Overlap top and bottom films across
the heat shoes.
Top film should extend down just
below the top heat shoe.
Pull bottom film up to just over the
top heat shoe and press it against the
top roll film to stick it in place.
Be careful sticking the bottom roll
film to the top roll film at the heat
shoes as the heat shoes are very hot.

Film Threading
Insert threading card into the nip
opening of the laminator pushing the
overlapped film in between the heat
shoes into the rollers, also called the
nip.
Laminator rollers should be open at the
time you push in the threading card.
Close laminating nip rollers by rotating
pressure arm down on right side of
laminator.

Film Threading
Advance laminator by pushing
forward on the drive switch.
Film threading card should exit
within 10 seconds at the rear of
the machine.
If card does not appear in 10
seconds, stop machine as a
wrap could be occurring.

Film Threading
Continue advancing the film web
until threading card is fully exited.
Adjust brake tension on laminator
by rotating set screws until contact
is made of the screw to the nylon
brake then turn 1 ½ turns further
clockwise.
Brake tension set screws are located
on the right side of the laminator
where the film supply shafts rest in
the machine.
Brake tension should be set for
both top and bottom rolls of film.

Film Threading
Continue advancing film web
through laminator until most
wrinkling coming across heat
shoe clears prior to going into
the nip rollers.
Adjust film tension with set
screws located on the right of
the laminator near the film
supply shafts to help smooth
wrinkles.
The film exiting rear of the
machine should progressively
become wrinkle free and clear.
Make sure safety shield is down
in position.
Install Feed Tray.
Ready to Laminate.
