ORCA-I Operation Manual Safety and Warranty Information
GBC Pro-Tech 1997 October 1-1
6HFWLRQ   6DIHW\
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE YOUR
ORCA-I LAMINATOR UNTIL YOU HAVE
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY!
Your safety, as well as the safety of others, is
important to GBC Pro-Tech. This section contains
important safety information.
The following symbols are used throughout this
manual to indicate warnings and cautions.
DANGER
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury, or alerts against unsafe
practices, or alerts against actions which could
damage the product.
The ORCA-I Laminator has been designed with
safety as a primary consideration. However, you
must become thoroughly familiar with the controls,
proper operation, proper service procedures, and
safety features of the laminator before using or
servicing the unit.
GBC Pro-Tech laminators are powerful machines
that are designed to mount, laminate and encapsulate.
The forces required to accomplish these tasks can
vary from negligible to very large.
The air-cylinder system used to provide downward
pressure on the top roll is capable of producing
forces greater than 1000 pounds (454kg). This force
is applied to any object presented in the opening
(called the nip) between the two rolls.
Use care in lowering the top laminating roll and know
how to react quickly in an emergency. The laminator
roll UP-DOWN switch is located on the instrument
panel labeled Laminator Roll Controls on the upper
right-hand side of the machine. This switch controls
the up and down motion of the top laminator roll.
Before turning this switch to the DOWN position,
ensure that nothing is in the nip area.
In addition, the laminating rolls of the ORCA-I can
reach temperatures of over 200°F (100°C). At these
temperatures there is a danger of a severe burn if the
rolls are touched during set-up, operation or
servicing.
An important feature of the laminator is the
photoelectric eye system that stops the machine when
objects move into the nip area. Once the blocking
object is removed and the light beam reestablished,
the rolls resume turning. However, this system is
overridden if you use the footswitch
WARNING
Use extreme caution when operating the
laminator with the footswitch. The
photoelectric eye system is overridden and
your fingers can get caught in the nip. You can
be crushed or burned.
The ORCA-I Laminator has a steel cabinet that is
bolted closed to isolate the electrical and drive system
components for the safety of the operator. Only a
qualified service technician should open these
cabinets.

The laminator is equipped with two emergency stop
buttons located on the top of either side of the
laminator. Either of these, if engaged, stops the
laminator and raises both the main roll and pull roll.
To continue operation both emergency stop buttons
must be in the up position and turn the main roll UP-
DOWN switch to the UP position to reset the
laminator. The laminator roll UP-DOWN switch is
located on the instrument panel labeled Laminator
Roll Controls on the upper right-hand side of the
machine. This switch controls the up and down
motion of the top laminator roll. Before turning this
switch to the DOWN position, ensure that nothing is
in the nip area.

In addition, the ORCA-I is equipped with two
Emergency Stop Kick Cables located at the lower
front and back of the laminator. Either of these, if
stepped on or kicked, stops the laminator and raises
the rolls. To continue operation, turn the main roll
UP-DOWN switch to the UP position to reset the

ORCA-I Operation Manual Installation
GBC Pro-Tech 1997 October 2-1
6HFWLRQ   ,QVWDOODWLRQ
Before an ORCA-I Laminator can be installed there
are a few requirements that must be met. Make
certain that each of the requirements listed in the
following preinstallation checklist are met before
beginning installation.
CAUTION
Failure to follow the preinstallation checklist
can result in damage to the laminator.
3UHLQVWDOODWLRQ &KHFNOLVW
❒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 the rear of the
machine and provides space for efficient material
flow. Figure 2-1 shows a typical machine area
layout.
❒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.
WARNING
The operating environment must be free of
dust, flammable liquids and vapors. You can
be injured by inhaling chemical vapors. Vapor
build up or stored flammable liquids can cause
a fire. Excessive dust can damage the
laminator.
CAUTION
Do not locate the laminator where air is
blowing directly on the machine. The air flow
can cool the rolls unevenly and result in poor
quality output.
❒Has a certified electrician been contacted to both
wire the laminator and ensure that an adequate
power supply, having the appropriate capacity,
overcurrent protection, and safety lockouts is
available?
The laminator requires 220 to 240 VAC, 50/60
Hz, 55A, single phase 3 wire. Or, in Europe
only, 3-N phase 230/400 VAC, 50 Hz, 25A per
phase.
USA - For single phase 3 wire, L1, L2, and L3
are tied together with a jumper box or the main
terminal block.
Europe - For 3-N phase, L1, L2, and L3 are each
separate phases. The jumper box must be
removed on the main terminal block.
WARNING
Do not operate the laminator if the power
cord is damaged or frayed. You can be
severely shocked, electrocuted or cause a fire.
Contact a qualified electrician to replace the
cord.
WARNING
Do not allow anything to rest on the power
cord. Do not locate the cord where people can
walk on it. You or others can be severely
shocked, electrocuted or cause a fire.
EDNord - Istedgade 37A - 9000 Aalborg - telefon [phone]

Installation ORCA-I Operation Manual
GBC Pro-Tech 1997 October
2-2
❒Is there an appropriate filtered air supply
available?
The laminator requires filtered air at 2 cubic feet
per minute (cfm), at a pressure of 100 pounds
per square inch (psi) (700 kPa). The air supply
must be clean (free of dirt) and dry. Moisture
causes corrosion and particles block pneumatic
controls. Either problem can cause the laminator
to malfunction.
It is the customer's responsibility to provide
appropriate filters and water traps for the air
hose before the air is routed to the laminator.
GBC Pro-Tech suggests that the best approach to
the air requirement is to provide a dedicated
small compressor for the laminator. A standard
light-duty ½ to ¾ horse power (1kW) electric air
compressor with 2.0 to 2.5 cfm output with a 2.5
gallon (20 liter) storage tank is appropriate.
CAUTION
The air supply to the laminator must be clean
and dry or the machine will be damaged.

ORCA-I Operation Manual Installation
GBC Pro-Tech 1997 October 2-5
WARNING
Do not attempt to move the laminator across
anything other than a flat, level surface
without trained and qualified riggers. You can
be crushed or seriously injured.
The ORCA-I Laminator is a large and heavy
piece of equipment. It is necessary to employ
LICENSED RIGGERS ONLY to move the
machine. The laminator is not designed to be
tipped up or sideways in any way. Such action
disturbs the exact alignment of the rolling
parts of the machine and requires extensive
realignment. GBC Pro-Tech’s warranty does
not cover malfunction of the equipment due to
mishandling and/or tipping.
GBC Pro-Tech bears no responsibility for
personal injury or damage due to moving the
laminator improperly.
5. Remove any plastic strapping and packing paper
taped to the rolls.
CAUTION
Do not use a knife or other sharp instrument
during installation or while servicing the
laminator. You can cause irreparable damage
to the rolls.
6. Remove all packing materials to a safe distance
from the laminator.
⇒A NOTE ABOUT RECYCLING
The crate components can be reused for shipping
the machine again, or can be disassembled and the
wood and screws recycled. The shrink wrap is not
recyclable, however, so it must be discarded.
⇒NOTE
A word about international shipments: As these are
heavy pieces of equipment, GBC Pro-Tech takes
every precaution to ensure that our laminators are
properly crated to the highest standards.
Before machines leave our loading dock, they are
pre-treated with a VCI protective film to provide
total corrosion protection. This protective film is
wrapped around the machine and completely sealed.
In addition, moisture absorbing silicone desiccite
packs are packed inside the crate and machine
cabinets.
Prior to start up of the machine, you must remove
the desiccite packs from each cabinet and discard.
DO NOT operate the machine with the desiccite
packs inside the cabinets.
6HWXS
Once the ORCA-I Laminator has been unpacked and

9. Replace both cabinet covers.
6WDUWXS
The first time the laminator is started and every time
it is serviced you should use the following checklist to
confirm that the unit is operating properly and that all
safety mechanisms are functioning.
Startup Checklist
Start the laminator and go through the following
checklist.
❒Are the emergency stop buttons working?
Push down on one of the emergency stop buttons.
The laminator should stop and both the upper
main roll and upper pull roll should raise, if they
are lowered. Twist the button until it pops up. If
the main roll UP-DOWN switch is in the UP
position, the machine is reset once the emergency
stop button is released. If the switch in the the
DOWN position, it must be set to the UP
position to reset the machine. Always check both
buttons.
WARNING
Never operate the laminator unless both of the
emergency stop buttons are functioning
properly. You can be crushed or burned.
❒Are the emergency stop kick cables working?
With the laminator running, step on or kick the
front emergency stop kick cable. The rolls should
stop turning and raise, if they are lowered. If the
main roll UP-DOWN switch is in the UP
position, the machine is reset once tension is
released from the kick cable. If the switch in the
the DOWN position, it must be set to the UP
position to reset the machine. Repeat the test for
the back emergency stop kick cable.
WARNING
Never operate the laminator unless both of the
emergency stop kick cables are functioning
properly. You can be crushed or burned.
❒Is the photoelectric eye system working?
With the laminator running, place an object
approximately the size of your hand just in front
of the nip to confirm that the photoelectric eye
system is functioning. The rolls should stop.
Move the object away from the nip. The
laminator should resume operation.
WARNING
Never operate the laminator unless the
photoelectric eye system is functioning
properly. You can be crushed or burned.
❒Is the motor functioning?
Test the motor at various speeds ranging from
0-14 fpm (feet per minute). At 0 the rolls should
stop turning.
Run the motor in both forward and reverse.
❒Are the heaters working?
Verify that the top heater controller heats the top
roll and the bottom heater controller heats the
bottom roll.
❒Is the footswitch operating?
Test the footswitch for both forward and reverse
operation. Verify that the footswitch overrides
the photoelectric eye by pressing the footswitch
and pushing an object as large as your hand into
the nip area.
Once you have completed the startup checklist you
can safely run a test sample.

6DIHW\
GBC Pro-Tech laminators are powerful machines
that are designed to mount, laminate and encapsulate.
The forces required to accomplish these tasks can
vary from negligible to very large.
The air-cylinder system used to provide downward
pressure on the top roll is capable of producing
forces greater than 1000 pounds (454kg). This force
is applied to any object presented in the opening
(called the nip) between the two rolls.
Use care in lowering the top laminating roll and know
how to react quickly in an emergency. The laminator
roll UP-DOWN switch is located on the instrument
panel labeled Laminator Roll Controls on the upper
right-hand side of the machine. This switch controls
the up and down motion of the top laminator roll.
Before turning this switch to the DOWN position,
ensure that nothing is in the nip area.
In addition, the laminating rolls of the ORCA-I can
reach temperatures of over 200°F (100°C). At these
temperatures there is a danger of a severe burn if the
rolls are touched during set-up, operation or
servicing.
An important feature of the laminator is the
photoelectric eye system that stops the machine when
objects move into the nip area. Once the blocking
object is removed and the light beam reestablished,
the rolls resume turning. However, this system is
overridden if you use the footswitch
WARNING
Use extreme caution when operating the
laminator with the footswitch. The
photoelectric eye system is overridden and
your fingers can get caught in the nip. You can
be crushed or burned.
The ORCA-I Laminator has a steel cabinet that is
bolted closed to isolate the electrical and drive system
components for the safety of the operator. Only a
qualified service technician should open these
cabinets.
The laminator is equipped with two emergency stop
buttons located on the top of either side of the
laminator. Either of these, if engaged, stops the
laminator and raises both the main roll and pull roll.
To continue operation both emergency stop buttons
must be in the up position and turn the main roll UP-
DOWN switch to the UP position to reset the
laminator. The laminator roll UP-DOWN switch is
located on the instrument panel labeled Laminator
Roll Controls on the upper right-hand side of the
machine. This switch controls the up and down
motion of the top laminator roll. Before turning this
switch to the DOWN position, ensure that nothing is
in the nip area.
