3. Requirements for Use

This machine should be used in ambient temperatures of 50°F to 105°F. Avoid higher temperatures and high humidity levels (see specifications, page 3). Due to static adherence of adhesive films, the production environment should be kept as clean as possible. This machine should only be operated on its own stand. Operating space: enough space should be kept so as to ensure safe and effective application. The recommended minimum operating space for the machine is 10’ x 10’. Do not place this machine in direct sunlight. Do not leave pictures and articles on, or between the rubber-covered rollers for long periods of time after laminating. If the machine is to be unused for a long period of time it is recommended to remove the adhesive film, pictures and articles. Avoid long-term adherence of the adhesive film to the surface of the rubber-covered roller. To prevent color change of cold mounting film it is recommended that laminated prints not be affixed to rubber materials. It can laminate continuously an object less than 0.47” thick. And for an object over 1/2” but below 1”, the work can be done by using the pedal switch.

8. Preparations Prior To Operation

Connecting the power supply, turn on the machine, and you can choose function switches according to practical needs. Press Cold for cold laminating work. Press Hot for hot laminating work. Press either Single, or Double for single roller heat-up or double roller heat-up. Selection of adhesive films: it is essentials to select good quality film, which can help get an ideal laminated product. The adhesive films should be a little narrower than the text and drawings (When there is some blank on the edges around); if there is no blank frames available for cutting, lining papers should be mounted on the back of text and drawings (or on both sides of the text and drawings) and the lining paper should be wider than the adhesive films. Installing adhesive Films Rolls on the mandrel: Loosen the fastening screws on the orientation covers of mandrel and take down the axis caps on one end and the orientation covers of mandrel; Put the film rolls on the core of the mandrel; Put the removed orientation covers through one end of paper core and then fit on the axis caps of mandrel. Adjust the distances between the orientation covers of the two positioning sleeves so as to place the film roll in the central part. Fasten the screws of supporting covers of mandrel (Note: there should be 3 to 5mm clearance between the orientation cover of mandrel and adjust the cover of mandrel for transverse adjustment); Adjust the fabrication forces by turning the adjustment covers of the mandrel. (Be careful: the friction forces should not be too great) ( please refer to figure 8)

Installations and Adjustment Methods for backing Paper Roller (please refer to Figure 9)

1. Make anticlockwise turns of pressure adjustment nuts on the right, to take the backing paper roll down. A clockwise turn helps to load the roll on.
2. The paper tube for collecting backing paper may be loaded on the backing paper roller, or stick the backing paper onto the backing paper roller directly after being separated with the film.

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 24 of 43

3. The backing paper roller is driven by fabrication forces: the fabrication force and torsion movement of driving will be increased when the pressure adjust hand wheel of backing paper roller is turned clockwise. A counter-clockwise turn can decrease them.
4. If the paper tube can’t be turned with the rotation of backing paper roller, the supporting plates should be adjusted so that the rotation of paper tube would follow the movement of the backing paper roller.

Methods of Adjustment: １）Loosen screws ２）Move the supporting plates ３）Fasten screws ▲ Note: the fabrication forces should be subject to the practical requirements and not be too big.

9. Adjustment of Roller Pressure

With the inner driving devices, the pressure-adjust hand-wheel rotates and brings along with the up and down movements of upper roller, thus the pressure between the rollers can be adjusted. When the pressure hand-wheel of front roller turns clockwise, the upper roller will go down and the pressure will increase; with an anticlockwise turn, the upper roller will go up and the pressure will decrease; When the hand-wheel of the rear roller turns clockwise, the upper roller will go up and the pressure decreases, whereas the upper roller will come down and the pressure will increase. When you open or close the hand wheel, please pull the handgrip out a little. Strictly prohibit bending it directly without pulling out, for fear the hand-wheel could be damaged.

If this machine will lie idle for a long time, turn the hand-wheel to lift up the upper roller.

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 27 of 43

10. Film Tension Adjustment

A. Pull Roller Friction Clutch:

A friction clutch is installed at the left end of the rear lower pull roller shaft. Its nut can be adjusted to regulate film tension. As shown in the following figure:

B. Adjustment procedure:

1. To turn off power switch and unplug power plug.

2. Open the left end cover and adjust the compression nut by using an open end wrench. Clockwise rotation increases damping and the film tension increases; counterclockwise rotation decreases damping and film tension decreases.

Note: The DryLam DUO has been adjusted by the factory. However, even under normal circumstances, film tension should be increased to reduce horizontal waves and decreased to reduce longitudinal waves. If adjustment is required it should be performed by a competent service professional.

11. Operation Instructions

This type of machine can carry out single-side cold and hot lamination work and double-side lamination work as well. Sheet and roll films can be used. (I). How to do Continuous Cold Laminating Work

1. Adjustment of the fabrication forces of the film roll:

After putting the mandrel into brackets, pull the adhesive film with hands for proper resistances. If fail in reaching the purpose, do it again with the limit collars.

2. Feeding Films（please refer to Figure 10） Lift up the rear roller (with no need to use the rear roller for cold lamination).

Turn the pressure-adjust hand-wheel to lift up the front upper roller and feed the film through between the two rollers and then lay it on the rear working panel; Pull the adhesive film flat with proper force, turn the pressure-adjust hand- wheel to lower down the front upper roller, and turn the hand-wheel till there is no gap----that means to make it to a pressure-free position.

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 29 of 43

Lining paper roller (for double side adhesive film lamination)

Lining paper (double-side adhesive film)

3. Functions Set-up:

1) Place cold and heating switch to OFF when doing cold laminating work

2) Turn the speed knob to what you require;

3) Separate one end of the roll with adhesive film with a cutter and cut out the backing papers straightly, pull up the backing paper and stick it to the paper tube of the backing paper roller (or stick it directly to the backing paper roller), adjust the pressure-adjust nuts of backing paper so as to add proper friction force to its roller.

4) With the trimness of the front end of text and drawings, align the two sides of text and drawings to the two sides of film, then feed the text and drawings with the pedal switch in between the two rollers. Then, press “Continue” and let go the pedal switch to complete the work.

5) If the front ends of text and drawings are not trim, you should lift up slightly the upper roller. After having adjusted the trimness between text & drawings and the two sides of adhesive film, lower down the front upper roller, press the pedal switch and feed the text and drawings in between the two rollers. After that, press

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 30 of 43

“Continue” and let go the pedal switch to complete the work. Note: ▲ The text and drawings should be fed between the upper and lower rollers with trimness and the front end of the text and drawings should be fed in at the same time so as to avoid crinkling the text and drawings during the operation. ▲ The text and drawings should be wider than the adhesive films so as to avoid staining the rollers. (Ⅱ)How To Do Continuous Single Side Laminating With Thermal Sensitive Adhesive Film The OPP film should normally be used as the materials for single-side laminating, which features that there is no backing paper and there is thermo-sensitive glue on the rollers’ surface and the laminating film needs a high temperature. The laminating quality of this machine during operation mainly depends on the surface temperature of rollers, the speed, and the melting temperature for the thermo-sensitive glue on the film surface and ambient temperatures, etc. Thus we should pay attention to the control of the above-mentioned factors during the operations. Film rolls are used for single-side cold laminating:

1. The adjustment of fabrication force for Film rolls Having put the mandrel with adhesive film into the brackets, you should pull the adhesive film with proper force to fell a resistance. If not get the required result, you should try the damp collars.

▲ Note: If the adhesive films are not tightened, the orientation collars for the roller should be adjusted to increase the fabrication forces.

2. Feeding Films (shown as figure 11):

Turn the pressure-adjust hand-wheel to lift up the front upper roller and put the adhesive film on the edge of operating panel and through the two rollers, put slip sheets on the lower front end of film between the two rollers (the slip sheet should be wider than the film), pull the film tight with some force, turn the pressure-adjust hand-wheel to take down the front upper roll and put the pressure-adjust hand-wheel to the lost motion----that means to the most loosen status of pressure.

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 31 of 43

Note: in view that the rollers will change the pressures due to the thermal inflation, thus the temperature on the roller surface should be adjusted until certain temperature is reached, that is: put the hand-wheel at lost motion----that means to the most loosen status.

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 32 of 43

3. Functions Set-up:

1) Press heating switch when high temperature is needed.;

2) Press single-side heating switch when single-side laminating is required;

3) Turn the temperature knob to proper temperature for laminating (if the machine heating is completed, the working indicator will turn from red flicking to green normally-on)

4) Adjust the speed adjustment knob to the speed you require;

4. Methods for Feeding Text & Drawings Into Covering Films:

Method 1: Adhere the text and drawings neatly to the backing paper with adhesive tapes. Note: ▲ The two side edges of text and drawings should be vertical with the rollers, so as to avoid declining during operations. ▲ The text and drawings should be wider than the adhesive film so as to avoid adhering to the rollers’ surface. If you want to achieve a quick rise of temperature, you can turn the button to Double-side, and then turn to Single-side when the temperature reaches 140°F.

5. Step the pedal switch and feed text and drawings in between the two rollers.

Please press the switch to “Continue” and loosen the pedal switch to complete the continuous laminating process. Note: ▲Feed text and drawings in between the upper and lower rollers while keep

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 33 of 43

text and drawings trim and the front end of text and drawings will be fed in, so as to avoid declining or crinkling during operations. ▲Temperature is proportionate to speed. Don’t adjust the temperature and speed to the maximum at one time; otherwise the quality of laminating film could be affected. ▲During the laminating operations, please observe the effectiveness of the laminating film. If the thermo-sensitive glue on the surface is not melt completely, the temperature should be increased (or reduce the speed); if the text and drawings distorts after the laminating operation, the temperature should be reduced (or increase the speed). ▲If there are clear wrinkles on adhesive films or text and drawings, you should stop the machine, cut off the text and drawings, pull the film straight and feed the text and drawings in again for laminating .

1. The friction force adjust of roll adhesive films:

1) After having placed two rolls of adhesive film into the front and rear brackets, pull the adhesive films with hands until feeling a certain resistance.

2) Trim the upper and the lower films at the left and the right sides. If there are errors, you should turn the adjustment collars to move the film roll to either the left or the right.

3) If the requirements are still not be met, please loosen the orientation collars of the mandrel and fix the film rolls again.

▲Note: If the adhesive films can’t be tightened, you should turn the adjustment collars to increase the friction force.

2. Feeding the film (please refer to figure 12):

Turn separately the front and the rear pressure-adjust hand-wheels to lift up the

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 35 of 43

front and the rear upper rollers. Put the adhesive films at the edge of the operation panel, make the upper and the lower films straight with proper forces, turn the pressure-adjust hand-wheel to let down the front and the rear upper rollers and place the front and the rear pressure-adjust hand-wheel at the lost motion ----that means to turn them to the most loosen status. Note: due to the thermal inflation arising from the heating process which will change the pressures, it needs to be adjusted when the roller surface reaches a certain temperature, that is: place the front and the rear pressure -adjust hand-wheel till lost motion occurs----that refers to the most loosen status of the hand-wheel.

3. Functions set-up:

1) Press the Cold mounting and Heating button to Heating; 2）Press the button of Single/Double to Double; 3）Turn the temperature knobs to the temperature applicable for laminating (If the machine heating is completed, the working indicator will turn from red flicking to green normally-on).

4）Turn the speed knob to the speed you require.

4. Methods for feeding text and drawings:

Step the pedal switch to feed text and drawings evenly in between the two rollers. Please press the button to “Continue”, let off your foot to complete the laminating process. Note: ▲ The two sides of edges of text and drawings should be vertical with rollers, so as to avoid declining during operations. ▲ The text and drawings should be narrower than the film used. ▲ Feed text and drawings with the film together at the same time in between the upper and the lower rollers, while keeping them plain so as to avoid declining or crinkling during operations. ▲Temperature is proportionate to speed. Don’t adjust the temperature and speed to the maximum at one time; otherwise the quality of laminating work can be adversely affected. ▲During the laminating operation, please observe the effectiveness of the laminating film. If the thermo-sensitive glue on the film doesn’t melt completely,

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 36 of 43

the temperature should be increased (or, the speed should be reduced). If text and drawings distort after laminating the temperature should be reduced (or the speed should be increased). ▲ If there are clear wrinkles on adhesive films or text and drawings, you should stop the machine, pull the film straight and feed the text and drawings into rollers again.

LPV1200-1600 Instruction Manual.docx Page 37 of 43

12. Common Solutions To Quality Issues

Checking methods and adjustment for pressure balance of rollers.

The adjustment of the space between the two rollers will be completed during operations. While not in use, the asymmetry of the space between the two rollers is caused by the space of screw threads of journey adjustment structures, which does not affect the normal uses. If the quality of the laminating is influenced, please make examinations and adjustment in the following steps.

• Checking steps & methods of adjustment:
• Open the left and the right cabinets;
• Check whether the left and right pressure adjustment brackets are loose. If it is, please adjust the pressure adjustment brackets and then fasten it;
• Check whether the fore-and-aft taper gears on the two sides are loose. If the left gear is loose, please dismantle it and then remove the screws of pressure adjustment brackets, after the fore-and-aft taper gears declines, please fasten the screws on the top of gears, and then place each component back to where they were; if the right taper gear is loose, it is no need to dismantle it. Other procedures are the same as the left.
• Adjustment methods for the space between the two rollers: (please refer to Fig 13) Place the printed material with proper length (usually 5.9” wider than the film at the both sides) between the two rollers, turn the pressure adjust hand wheel to make the upper roller contact with printed material, and make a visual examination of the spaces of rollers and the two sides of the printed material.

If the spaces are inconsistent with each other, please remove the left transverse taper gear; turn the fore-and-aft taper gear until the spaces at the two sides of rollers is even. Assembly the left transverse taper gear and blocking plates and fasten the screws on each component.
