GBC HeatSeal H220 Manual De Instrucciones página 5

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this GBC
laminator heats up to operating temperature quickly and retains
its heat so you can laminate your documents without waiting.
The laminator also provides cold lamination for pressure sensitive
adhesive lamination pouches. The laminator provides audible and
visual indication that it is ready to laminate. The laminator goes into
a standby mode after 30 minutes of inactivity.
Please take a little time to study these instructions to ensure you
get the best out of your machine. Your new laminator may emit a
slight odor during the initial operation. It is normal and will diminish
after a few hours of operation.
Operation
1. Connect power cord to appropriate power source.
2. For cold lamination, push the power button to turn on the
machine. The indicator will glow (fig. 1). Skip step 3.
3. For hot lamination, select the button for the appropriate pouch
gauge thickness. The button will blink until it is ready. (fig. 1).
4. Position the document to be laminated into a GBC laminating
pouch, so that the document is aligned to the folded sealed
edge and the right and left borders are equal (fig. 2).
5. When the ready light turns on (fig. 3) and the machine beeps,
insert the pouch and its contents straight into the machine,
leading with the sealed edge (fig. 4). Do not use with a carrier.
6. The laminated item will exit from the rear of the machine. Once
the item is no longer moving, pull it free of the rear of the
machine.
7. You can select a different pouch thickness. If you select a lower
setting, the laminator must cool down to that setting before
laminating. The ready light will glow when the laminator is ready.
8. Once you have finished laminating, push the power button to
turn off the machine (fig. 1).
Release button feature
This machine is equipped with a release button that you can use to
remove a pouch during lamination, if necessary.
• To retrieve a pouch once fed into the machine, firmly press
the release button, grasp the pouch, and pull the pouch out
(fig. 5).

Cleaning
WARNING: UNPLUG THIS PRODUCT BEFORE
CLEANING THE ExTERIOR. WIPE ExTERIOR
ONLY WITH A DAMP CLOTH AND DO NOT USE
DETERGENTS OR SOLVENTS.
Your laminator came with a cleaning card that is to be used after
each laminating session, prior to shutting off the machine. Adhesive
may exit the pouch and stick to the rollers while laminating or if a
jam occurs. The cleaning card removes this residue, keeping your
machine in proper working order and extending its life.
1. Run the cleaning sheet through the machine two or three times.
2. Turn off the machine when finished laminating and cleaning.
Laminating tips
• DO NOT LAMINATE AN EMPTY POUCH.
• Never insert the loose end of the pouch first into the machine.
This could cause the machine to jam.
• Before laminating important or unique documents, always run a
test pouch through the laminator using a similar type document.
• Do not attempt to do single sided lamination. This will destroy
the laminator.
• As soon as hot lamination is completed, remove the lamination
from the rear of the machine and place on a cool flat surface for
cooling to prevent the pouch from curling.
• Do not block the vent slots, this will cause the laminator to
overheat.
• Do not cut pouches prior to lamination.
• Do not use with a carrier.
