SAFETY FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The Image®410 is one of the safest laminators on the
market.
nThe side plate covers can be opened only with an
Allen wrench, this should be done by an authorized
Service Technician.
nPhotoelectric Safety Eyes prevent foreign objects
from passing between the main rollers. When a
photoelectric eye is blocked, the laminator rollers
stop.
nEmergency Stop Buttons are located on both sides of
the machine. The emergency stop buttons shut down
all power to the machine and raise the rollers. They
should only be used in case of an emergency. Once
pressed, the buttons lock and need to be turned
clockwise to reset. Thereafter, the power button must
also be turned on. If the emergency stop is
depressed, the machine will default to program 1
upon restart.
nCovered footswitch prevents accidental activation of
roller movement. It can be used to give the operator
control when feeding an image through the machine.
nBuzzer and Flashing Light warns the operator if
fingers are getting too close to the nip while using the
footswitch.
nInfeed Table has a channel to allow for easy media
feeding while keeping fingers a safe distance from the
main rolls.
nEnclosed pull system prevents foreign objects from
passing between the rollers.
nPower Disconnect Switch is located on the left side
leg. When turned to the off position, will shut off the
laminator.
SAFETY AND WARRANTY INSTRUCTIONS
nRead all safety and operating instructions before
operating the machine.
nAdhere to all warnings on the machine and in the
manual.
nFollow all operating and user instructions.
nOperate the machine with the type of power sources
indicated in this manual.
nRefer all servicing to an authorized service
representative. Servicing by any unauthorized
technician voids the warranty.
nHunt Graphics must specify replacement parts.
nService Technicians must perform safety checks after
completing any service or repair.
nUse only enclosed knife cutters around the machine.
nNever cut or slice directly on the rollers.
nKeep all objects such as tools, pens, etc. away from
the roller opening.
nDo not wear loose garments or loose jewelry while
operating the laminator.
*Warning! When the laminator is not in use, adjust
the nip gap to at least 3/16” (setting 5). This will prevent
flat spots from developing on the main rolls. Flat spots
will effect the quality of the output and void warranty.
*Warning! When the laminator is not in use, or while
rollers are heating up, pivot the front table away from the
rollers. This will prevent the front table from possible
distortion. Warranty will not cover distorted tables.

- 5 - 3H
*Warning! Authorized service technicians must
disconnect the power by using the power disconnect
(located on the left side stand leg) before any servicing.
ENVIRONMENT
nPosition your laminator in a clean dust free
environment to ensure high quality output.
nOperation of a laminator near water or in an area of
high humidity requires installation of a GFI breaker.
