What is the benefit of the steel cooling plate?

The steel cooling plate helps set the laminate quickly after it passes through the heated rollers, preventing curling and ensuring a flat finish.

Troubleshooting

Laminator not turning on

Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the laminator and a functioning 220/230V outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position.

Bubbles or wrinkles in laminate

Ensure you are using the correct pouch thickness for the selected temperature setting. Check that the rollers are clean and free from debris. Laminate at the correct speed setting.

Uneven lamination

Verify the document is centered correctly in the pouch and feed entry. Ensure the steel cooling plate is properly aligned and functioning.

Laminator overheating or shutting down

Allow the unit to cool down between extended use periods. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the machine. Do not exceed recommended operating cycles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the laminator is placed on a stable, level surface with adequate ventilation. Connect the power cord to a compatible 220/230V 50Hz outlet. Allow the unit to reach operating temperature (indicated by a light or display, if applicable) before inserting the first pouch.

Compatibility: The Armoured1000 is compatible with standard laminating pouches up to 2 x 250 micron (500 total micron thickness). The feed entry width of 450mm accommodates A2 size documents and anything narrower.

Care: After each use, allow the unit to cool down completely. Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Periodically check the roller area for any dust or debris that might affect performance; if necessary, use a specialized roller cleaning sheet (follow manufacturer instructions for such products). Store in a cool, dry place.
