RECOMMENDATIONS:
Use only recommended supplies and accessories.
Unplug the equipment and allow to cool down, before moving or during long
standstills.
Always insert the closed, end or side of the pouch cover into the laminator first.
Putting the open end or side first can cause air bubbles and the pouch to be
wrapped round the rollers and destroy the document and rollers inside.
It is recommended to put the o.pouch cover in a thin paper carrier before
putting it into the feed slot of the Coverator. It will prevent the rollers from being
damage, caused by excess glue coming out of the edges of the cover.
Thickness of the CARRIER must be around 40 gr/m². Thicker paper will cause
bad lamination.
If the document gets jammed inside the laminator, use the reverse function to
remove it.
Remove all metal elements (paper clips, clamps, staples etc.) before
laminating.
EQUIPMENT CONFIGURATION

OPERATION:
1. STARTING THE EQUIPMENT
Plug the equipment into the socket and turn it ON by the main switch at the
side, pre-heating process will start.
Pre-heat time of the laminator is about 8 minutes. When the Coverator is
ready for operation, the green LED light comes on.
Set the lever to the middle position.
2. DESCRIPTION OF LED’S SIGNALS AND SOUNDS
On the right side at the front of the equipment are two LED lights indicating actual
status of equipment:
Switching on the machine you will see the red & green LEDS flash and hear a
short bleep.
Red LED on and green LED off –this means that the equipment is on but
rollers are not hot enough.
Red and green LED’s are on – this means that rollers have reached
temperature. In addition, a signal, an audible bleep sound, informs you that
the equipment is ready to use.
Red LED flashes and the green LED is off –it means that the temperature
sensor is damaged. Call the service team.
Red LED is on and the green LED flashes and there is an additional audible
signal –this means that the heater is broken or the temperature regulator is
broken.
Call the service team.
3. PREPARING THE COVER
Use a trimmer to cut your printout to size for lamination. In each box of
O•pouch covers there is a template with the correct dimensions.
Take the trimmed printout and place it in the laminating pouch cover.
The pouch must cover all the trimmed printout surface.

4. LAMINATION OF O•POUCH COVER
Slowly insert the O•pouch cover at the front with the closed edge first and the
printout face up.
The cover will move through the unit and exit at the back laminated.
When a paper carrier is not used or the pouchcover slips out of the carrier
when laminating or a carrier is not being used, there is a big risk of soiling the
rollers. SEE CLEANING SECTION PAGE 6
When the laminated cover comes out bent in either direction, there are plates
inside the equipment, which you can adjust with the lever on the front of the
machine. Moving it left or right will make the cover come out flat.
1. Cover bent downwards, move the lever to the right a little at a time to get
the cover flat.
2. Cover bent upwards, move the lever to the left a little at a time to get the
cover flat.
We recommend that you make a test first to check that the cover is flat and
make any adjustment at this time.
It may be possible to straighten a bent cover by putting it through once more,
remembering to use a paper carrier.
If your cover has dirty marks after lamination, you can clean it with a cloth
covered with a cleaning agent suitable for Pouch covers.
For example NOVOGUM, a product made by FujiFILM.
5. LAMINATING POBC COVERS USING THE COVERATOR.
To laminate the POBC pouches you must use a laminating envelope/carrier
larger than the pouch, e.g. a thin card each side so there is no damage to the
pouch.
When laminating the pouch to the card you must protect the rollers from
excess glue coming out, put a larger sheet of paper over the cover.
If the POBC pouch comes out of the carrier during laminating it could leave
marks on the roller or if you do not use a carrier. You must clean the rollers.
Take a normal hardcover and cover it with clean white paper. Use A3 or USA
ledger size. You can put it through the rollers as many times as it takes to
clean the rollers, changing the paper each time.

6. CLEANING
Note!
Before cleaning the equipment, remove the mains plug from the socket.
To clean the outer cover of the laminator use a gentle domestic detergent or a
wet cloth.
Do not put the equipment into water.
Do not use or wipe the unit with petrol, alcohol or solvents, they can cause
permanent damage to the outer cover and equipment.
If the cover comes out after laminating with dirty marks on it. This means that
the rollers are dirty (glue) it is necessary to clean the rollers.
Take a normal hardcover and cover it with clean white paper. Using A3 or USA
ledger put it through the rollers as many times as it takes to clean the rollers
changing the paper each time.
If a pouch cover gets entangled and you cannot remove it or the laminator
does not operate correctly, contact the dealer or the service team.
7. CHANGING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER SETTING:
Because of environment changes. (e.g. temperature, humidity, mains power
fluctuation). It may be necessary to raise or lower the temperature on the hot
rollers.
This can be done by putting the Coverator into the maintenance mode, to do
this follow the instruction below:
1. Switch the power off.
2. Stand the Coverator on to its back.
3. Take a very thin insulated screwdriver and put it in the small hole marked
Service DOWN, press in gently the micro button inside, you will hear a little
click.
4. Holding the button pressed in, switch power on, when you hear a long bleep
sound release the button.
(short bleep sound means you are not in the service mode, repeat 1 and 3)
5. Now you can increase or decrease the temperature.
6. Each press of the Service-Up or Service-Down button (see diagram opposite)
will increase or decrease the temperature by one degree/unit, (1°C / 34°F)
then wait for the double bleep after 5 seconds to activate the new setting on
the rollers. (You can press it 5 times and then wait for the double bleep.)
7. Switch the power off to exit the maintenance mode.
