SaveYour Carton! Dry-Lam ships laminators in special cartons which protect them

from damage. Please store your cartons in case your laminator should ever require
servicing.

Remove the laminator from its box by grasping the housings and pulling up.
Do not use rollers or shafts as handles- this could cause damage.

The power supply cord should be unplugged from the wall outlet when it is
to be unused for a long period of time.

This manual is provided as an Operator’s Manual and covers most situations you
will encounter while using your laminator. It is not a Technical Service manual. For
