Keep hands, long hair, loose clothing, and articles such as necklaces or ties away from the front rollers to avoid entanglement and entrapment.

Do not use the laminator for other than its intended purpose.

Do not place the laminator on an unstable car, stand or table. An unstable surface may cause the laminator to fall resulting in serious bodily injury. Avoid quick stops, excessive force and uneven floor surfaces when moving the laminator on a cart or stand.

Do not defeat or remove electrical and mechanical safety equipment such as interlocks, shields and guards.

Do not insert objects unsuitable for lamination or expose the equipment to liquids.

Electrical

The laminator should be connected only to a source of power as indicated in these instructions and on the serial plate located on the rear of the laminator. Contact an electrician should the attachment plug provided with the laminator not match the receptacles at your location.

CAUTION: The receptacle must be located near the equipment and easily accessible.

Disconnect the attachment plug from the receptacle to which it is connected and keep the power supply cord in your possession while moving the laminator .

Do not operate the laminator with a damaged power supply cord or attachment plug, upon occurrence of a malfunction, or after the laminator has been damaged. Contact GBC’ s Technical Service Department or your dealer/distributor for assistance.
