Cleaning & Maintenance
Cleaning
Remove the electrical power before commencing any maintenance on the
laminator.
Do not use an abrasive cleaner on any surface. It may damage the surface of
the silicone rollers or the paint work. Only use a damp cloth. Do not let water
get onto panels of the laminator as they are not sealed. If water enters the
electrical circuits, injury to persons or damage to the equipment when power is
applied may occur.
1. External Surfaces
Clean the external surfaces of the laminator with a damp cloth. If necessary, use household
detergent to remove difficult stains.
2. Cleaning the silicone rollers
Clean the rollers with a clean damp cloth. If necessary, use household detergent to remove any
residual film.
Use an “Image Roller Cleaner” to remove excess adhesive. This should be done with the top roller
hot. When cleaning the top roller, place a scrap piece of board under the top roller to reduce waste
adhesive falling onto the bottom roller.
NOTE:
The rollers should be cleaned every day or the adhesive will build up and may eventually
damage the rollers.
Check the rollers regularly for dents, flat sides, cuts etc. to ensure
optimum quality of your work.
Use personal protective equipment when cleaning: i.e. safety glasses and
appropriate gloves.
