2. Adjust the Paper Guide on the Feed Table so that the right edge of the item will enter the laminator at the desired
position.
3. Press the motor switch to the on position. The film will begin moving through the laminator. Please turn off fans
when the motor is not running.
4. After clear laminating film exits the pull rollers at the rear of the machine you may feed the first item to be laminated
into the laminator with the right side along the paper guide.
Note: You may want to run a test lamination first as any item that passes between the heat shoes will be
laminated and cannot be recovered until it exits the rear of the laminator.
5. Additional items may be fed in sequence, keeping enough distance between sheets for trimming.
6. After the last item has exited the pull rollers, turn the motor switch off.
7. Use the zippy cutter to cut across the film to remove the laminated items from the unit.
Coating Mount Board
The MightyLam 2700 is capable of applying an adhesive coating on up to 1/4” uncoated mount board.
1. Load a roll of adhesive, with the liner wound to the outside, onto the top mandrel in the same manner as with
laminating film. Thread the liner side of the adhesive over the top idler roller (so that the adhesive does not stick to the
idler roller) and then through the laminator as with laminating film.
2. If the mount board is the same width as the roll of adhesive it is not necessary to load anything onto the bottom
mandrel. If the mount board is narrower than the adhesive, load a roll of paper or film onto the bottom mandrel to keep
the adhesive from accumulating on the rollers and heat shoes. Thread as for laminating film.
3. Turn heat switch to ON position if heat is needed for the application.
4. Set the temperature to the desired setting, depending upon the type of adhesive used.
5. Feed the uncoated mount board into the laminator behind a leader board of the same thickness. The leader board will
prevent the compression of the leading edge of your mount board.
6. You may coat subsequent boards now, one directly behind the other, so that the board in front becomes the leader
board. If at any time you have adhesive going through the machine without mount board, be sure to pull the adhesive
on the exit side of the machine to prevent a wrap-around.
