Overheating protection
This appliance is fitted with overheating protection.
If the motor overheats due to overloading, the appliance switches itself off auto-
matically. In this case, disconnect the power cable and wait until the appliance
has cooled down to room temperature. You can then reconnect the plug to a
mains power socket and take the appliance back into use.
We recommend that you let the appliance cool down for about 30 minutes after
2 hours of operation.

NOTE
► For high-gloss photos, you should choose the setting "125" as well as well
as the corresponding laminating pouch thickness.
Preparing for hot lamination
♦ Place the pouch guide rail into the holes designed for this purpose on the
rear of the laminator.
♦ Fold out the document supports -so that the documents are pulled into the
slot for manual pouch insertion straight.
♦ Insert the plug of the laminator into a mains power socket.
♦ Set the ON/OFF switch to “ON” (I).
♦ Set the selector switch for hot and cold lamination to “HOT” (I).
♦ Set the pouch thickness switch !to the desired pouch thickness (see also
section Switching levels). The red ON/OFF indicator lamp lights up.
The laminator heats up to operating temperature.
As soon as the green indicator lamp “Ready” lights up, the laminator has
reached its operating temperature.
NOTE
► The attainment of the operating temperature is indicated by the lighting
up of the green indicator lamp "Ready" . For a more uniform laminating
result we recommend, especially for thinner foils (below 125 μm), and
after adjustment to a different foil thickness, that you first wait an additional
2–3 minutes before starting the lamination.
► It is possible that the green indicator lamp "Ready" occasionally goes
out and lights up again. This means that the appliance is maintaining the
temperature and has heated up again a little. This is not a malfunction of
the appliance!
♦ Place the document to be laminated into a laminating pouch of the appropriate
size.

ULG 300 B1
■ 8 │ GB│IE│NI
NOTE
► Ensure that all edges of the document have at least two millimetres of
space to the edges of the laminating pouch, as shown in Fig. 1.
► Make certain that you use only one pouch for laminating. First flip it up,
as shown in Fig. 2.
► For further information about the lamination process, please read the
section Lamination process.

Preparing for cold lamination
CAUTION
► After hot laminating, allow the laminator to cool down completely before
beginning with cold lamination. Bear in mind, the rollers inside the lamina-
tor will still be hot. This could damage the laminating pouch and the docu-
ment to be laminated!
♦ Place the pouch guide rail into the holes designed for this purpose on the
rear of the laminator.
♦ Pull out the document supports -so that the documents are pulled into the
slot for manual pouch insertion straight.
♦ Insert the plug of the laminator into a mains power socket.
♦ Set the ON/OFF switch to “ON” (I).
♦ Set the selector switch for hot and cold lamination to “COLD” (O).
NOTE
► Note: for cold laminating, always set the pouch thickness switch !to
125 μm. The red ON/OFF indicator lamp and the green indicator lamp
"Ready" light up.
♦ Place the document to be laminated into a laminating pouch of the appropri-
ate size.
NOTE
► Ensure that all edges of the document have at least two millimetres of space
to the edges of the laminating pouch, as shown in Fig. 1.
► Make certain that you use only one pouch for laminating. First flip it up, as
shown in Fig. 2.
► For further information about the lamination process, please read the section
Lamination process.

ULG 300 B1
■ 10 │ GB│IE│NI
Lamination process
♦ Lay the laminating pouch on the pouch guide rail . Lay the right or left
edge of the laminating pouch onto the pouch format guide (closed side
to the front).
♦ Push the pouch format guide together until the desired format is reached.
In this way, you will ensure that the pouch is not pulled in at an angle.
NOTE
► If, despite this, the pouch is pulled in at an angle, use the "Anti-blocking
function", as described in the section Anti-blocking function (ABS).
♦ Now push the laminating pouch slowly into the slot for manual pouch
insertion .
♦ When you have slid the pouch several centimetres into the slot for manual
pouch insertion it will then be pulled in the rest of the way automatically.
Release the pouch as soon as you notice that it is being pulled in automati-
cally.
CAUTION
► Ensure there is at least 45 cm of open space in front of the laminator.
Otherwise, the pouch will not be ejected completely from the laminator
after lamination. This could damage the pouch.
♦ The finished laminated pouch is ejected from the pouch slot of the lami-
nator.
NOTE
►Only after hot laminating: When the finished laminated pouch is
ejected from the pouch slot of the laminator, it is hot and can easily
change its shape. For this reason, let the laminated pouch cool down for a
minute before touching it.
► To improve the lamination result, you can weigh down a still hot laminated
pouch with a book, a file folder or any other heavy, flat object. This will
help ensure a smooth, perfect surface.
♦ If you are finished laminating, set the ON/OFF switch to “OFF” (O).
♦ Remove the power plug from the mains power socket.

ULG 300 B1 GB│IE│NI │ 11 ■
Anti-blocking function (ABS)
At the start of the lamination process, the pouch may be pulled in at an angle or
jam itself inside the appliance.
♦ Turn the anti-blocking switch !to the position ABS. The pouch will no longer
be drawn in.
♦ Remove the pouch and turn the anti-blocking switch !back to the desired
pouch thickness.
♦ Re-start the lamination process.
Cutting function
If you want to use the cutting function on the pouch guide rail , take off the
pouch guide rail .
♦ If necessary, fold in the document supports -.
♦ Attach the cutting attachment 3so that it creates a flat surface with the
pouch guide rail . To do this, place the pouch guide rail on a table or
another flat surface.
♦ Push the cutting head as far as the stop (the cutting head can be
pushed to both ends of the cutting rail ).
♦ Flip up the cutting rail up using the rounded handle and position the
documents on the pouch guide rail . Fix the document in place by pushing
the pouch format guide together until it is touching both sides of the
document.
♦ Use the markings on the scale table to align your document precisely.
♦ Flip the cutting rail down so it clicks into place.
♦ Hold the paper firmly in place with one hand.
♦ To cut, press the cutting head downwards with the other hand and push it
over the document in a single movement.

Cleaning
DANGER
Risk to life from electrical current!
► Remove the power plug from the mains socket before starting to clean the
appliance.
► Ensure that no moisture can penetrate the device during cleaning.
► Never immerse the appliance parts in water or other liquids!
► Never open the appliance housing. There are no serviceable parts whatso-
ever inside.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the device.
► Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these may corrode
the surface of the casing.
♦ Clean the housing of the appliance only with a lightly moistened cloth and
a mild detergent.
Cleaning the inside of the appliance:
During every lamination, contaminants collect on the rollers inside the laminator.
Over time, this adversely affects the performance of the laminator. Therefore, you
should clean the rollers inside the laminator after every use.
♦ Prepare the appliance as described in the section Preparing for hot
lamination, until the green indicator lamp “Ready” lights up.
♦ Then insert a sheet of A3 paper folded in the middle (maximum thickness
1.0 mm), without a pouch and with the fold at the front, slowly into the slot
for manual pouch insertion .
♦ Release the sheet as soon as you notice that it is being pulled in automatically.
The contaminants on the rollers inside the laminator now firmly attach them-
selves to the sheet of paper. The paper is ejected from the pouch slot of the
laminator.
♦ Repeat this cleaning process several times. Use a fresh sheet of paper each
time.
When you no longer see any contaminants on the paper, the rollers inside the
laminator are clean.
