SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
3

This machine has been designed using the latest laminating technology.
1. This machine is controlled by a state-of-the-art Microprocessor.
a) Protect the rollers--When the power is off or a power failure occurs, rollers
continue to turn until the unit properly cools down.
b) Automatic overheating protection--If a temperature sensor should fail,
the heating elements will not heat up.
c) You can set your own operating conditions into "Memory".
2. Temperature and speed can be adjusted, to properly laminate various
film thickness.
3. A buzzer rings, alerting you that a butten has been pressed. This prevents
accidental setting changes.
4. Roller cover may be opened for easy access to clean the rollers.
5. Thermostats are used to economically maintain consistent temperature.
CHARACTERISTICS OF LAMINATOR NPH-1200N/900N

Place laminator on a sturdy, flat work surface. Allow ample clearence behind laminator
for laminated document or photograph to exit completely without bending.
Connect laminator to an electrical outlet that matches laminator's rated voltage and
power requirements.
If an extension cord is required, use a cord rated higher than the laminator's capacity.

solvent such as Laminex Poly-Off or
equivalent, on a lint-free cloth to clean
residue of laminate adhesive on exposed
roller surface.
You can clean every corner of the rollers
as turn the power switch and make them roll

allow melted adhesive resin to stick to the rollers.
2. Routine cleaning of rollers is required to prevent adhesive build-up.
3. Always keep the area around the machine clean.
To remove dust, finger prints, etc. from housing, use diluted alcohol
on lint-free cloth and do not permit liquids to get into laminator.
(Do not use strong alcohol or petroleum-based cleaning solvents or
abrasives.)
