1. Remove individual pouches from box and set aside the Sled (the Sled is a carrier board to assist in the handling of large Flexible Pouches. It is made of materials that will not damage or cause excessive wear to laminators). 2. The Flexible Pouch consists of two pieces of film hinged at one end, along a short side. Separate the two pieces starting at the end opposite the hinge. Take care not to break the hinged seal. 3. Insert the image to be laminated in the pouch so there is at least a 1/8" (3.5mm) border around each of the sides. This ensures that moisture never reaches the image. 4. Place the pouch with the image on the Sled. Smooth out any wrinkles with the side of the hand or a soft flexible squeegee. 5. Tape the leading edge of the pouch to the Sled using masking tape. 6. Adjust the Control Knob to the 3/16" 7.Hold the edge of the Sled until it is engaged and the laminator begins pulling it on its own. The Sled will feed through the laminator and automatically exit at the rear of the machine. 8. CAUTION! THE SLED WILL BE HOT! Allow it to lie flat and cool before removing the tape. Gently remove the pouch from the Sled and save it for next pouch.
