Mit freundlichen Grüßen Ihre GO Europe GmbH Version vom 19.04.201215 English Important Safety Information Please observe the following information to ensure reliable operation of the laminator: ● Read this manual thoroughly and observe the instructions and information in it when operating the device. ● Keep the operating manual in a safe place for future reference. ● The device may only be operated indoors in dry rooms which are well ventilated. ● The device must be set down on a level surface and may only be used when horizontal. ● Do not use the device in the vicinity of hot surfaces or in damp environments and protect it from direct sunlight and dusty conditions. ● Ensure that the power switch is in the "OFF" position before connecting the laminator to the mains power supply. ● The mains power socket and power connection on the device must be freely accessible for reasons of safety, namely to enable the power supply to be disconnected quickly in an emergency! ● Switch the device off immediately if a strong smell comes from it. ● Switch the device off when it is not being used. ● Disconnect the power plug when the device is not in use. ● Prevent damage to the power plug and power cable. Never twist or kink the power cable nor set it down on hot surfaces. Do not operate the device if the power cable or power plug is damaged. ● Never take hold of the power plug with damp hands. ● Keep loose clothing, ties, jewellery, long hair and other loose objects away from the device. Risk of injury! ● Children must not be allowed in the vicinity of the device when it is ready to operate. ● Ensure no pets can get near the device. ● Always use the lamination foil pockets recommended for the device (refer to "Features"). Using lamination foil which is too large could lead to the unit jamming. ● Do not use foil pockets intended for cold lamination for hot lamination. This could damage the device, foil pockets and document. ● Never cut lamination foil to size. The resulting cut edges could cause the lamination foil to jam. ● Never use foil pockets which are soiled. Clean them beforehand, if necessary, using a soft, slightly damp cloth.16 ● Metallic objects cannot be laminated. ● Do not laminate heat sensitive materials, such as thermal paper, in the device. ● Lamination of moist documents produces poor results. ● Maintain a pause of at least 15 seconds between each lamination process. ● Allow the device to cool down for at least 30 minutes after use. ● Only transport the device when it is in a cool state. ● Never touch hot parts of the device. Risk of burns! Handle the foil pockets just laminated with due care and attention. They are very hot! Important Information ● ID cards and documents could loses their validity if they are laminated because the official status of the document can no longer be validated. ● If you transfer the laminator to others, always hand over this operating manual with it. ● If very soft material (such as serviettes) or very small size material is to be laminated, we recommend inserting a folded sheet of paper in the foil pocket too, to prevent the possibility of the document being laminated from jamming. The folded edge of the sheet must be inserted into the laminator first.

Indicators for cold/hot laminating and selected foil thickness

Button for selecting cold/hot laminating and foil thickness

1. Connect the power cable to an easily accessible, standard electrical

socket. Attention: Check that the voltage specifications of the machine corre- spond to that of your power supply network (220 - 240 V / 50 Hz).

2. Switch on the power switch on the rear side of the device.

3. Press the On/Off button on the operating panel to switch the device on.

The drive motor for the transport rollers starts up.

4. Press the button for selecting cold/hot laminating and foil thickness, sev-

eral times if necessary, until the COLD LED lights up in the operating panel. The LED strip lights up blue, continually, when the device is ready for use. Attention: If you have just finished using the laminator for hot laminat- ing, you must let the laminator cool down. The equipment takes about 30 minutes to cool down. The LED strip flashes red during the cool down phase.

5. Insert the document to be laminated in the foil pocket so that there is a

margin of approx. 3-5 mm to the edge of the foil on all sides.

6. Insert the foil pocket containing the document in the laminator's infeed

slot. Insert the ready closed side of the foil in first. The laminating pro- cess occurs automatically. Note: To prevent the foil pocket from creasing, never feed the open side of the laminating pocket first in the infeed slot of the laminator. Note: If the device remains unused for 30 minutes, it switches off automatically. Press the On/Off button on the operating panel to switch the device on again.

7. When you have finished your laminating tasks, press the On/Off button

scribed in the Section "Cleaning and Servicing".

4. If foil jams occur repeatedly or jammed foil cannot be removed from the

laminator, please contact the sales outlet where you purchased the de- vice (refer to Guarantee).

Cleaning and Servicing Deposits and residual adhesive on the transport rollers can influence the re- sults of the laminating process. Therefore, the transport rollers must be cleaned regularly after use: To do this, insert a folded piece of paper in the infeed slot. Residual adhe- sive is removed and taken up by the paper when ejected. Repeat the pro- cess several times. Disconnect the power plug before starting to clean the unit with a damp cloth. If necessary, the housing can be cleaned using a cloth moistened with clean water with a little mild soap applied. Never use any solvents or aggres- sive cleaning agents.22 Troubleshooting Fault Corrective measures
