TROUBLESHOOTING

The following guide will assist you with most problems that may be encountered when laminating.

PROBLEM: Laminator is inoperative. Motor does not turn, machine does not heat.

ACTION: Unit may be unplugged. Connect power supply. Ensure that the circuit breaker

has not tripped Fuse may have blown. Replace fuse (rear next to power cord)

with 15 amp BUSS (MDA-15) for standard units.

PROBLEM: Laminator heats but motor does not run

ACTION: Ensure all motor switches are in the ON position. Check that FWD/REV switch is

up. (FWD) Change motor fuse with .75 amp fast blow fuse.

PROBLEM: Laminator blows fuses often.

ACTION: Ensure machine is running on a dedicated circuit. Do not exceed maximum

material thickness. Reduce supply mandrel tension.

PROBLEM: Laminating film and item being laminated move through

laminator erratically.

ACTION: Check thickness of item to be laminated. Maximum thickness is

1/16" (1.6mm). Clean rollers of residual adhesive. Refer to MAINTENANCE

section for cleaning instructions.

PROBLEM: Plastic is not bonding to the item or to itself at the edges.

ACTION: Make sure rollers are at proper operating

temperature and have had time to warm up. See Table 1 for the suggested

temperature ranges. (ensure you are using quality film). If the temperature is set

correctly and the film is not bonding then the film is most likely bad.

PROBLEM: Wrinkles on laminated item running parallel with supply

rolls.

ACTION: Increase film mandrel tension on top and/or bottom supply rolls; only

small amounts between tests. Reduce roller temperature.

PROBLEM: Stretch lines appear on laminated items running parallel with

the outside edges.
