Using this Fellowes laminator is easy. First, plug it in and let it warm up for about 3 minutes. While it's warming up, prepare your document or photo and choose the right laminating pouch. Once it's ready, set the speed and temperature according to the thickness of your pouch. Place your item inside the pouch and gently insert it into the laminator. Watch as it comes out beautifully laminated. If there's a jam, use the reverse mode to clear it. Remember, don't overload the laminator at once. For maintenance, keep it clean by wiping it regularly with a soft cloth. Check the rollers from time to time to make sure they're in good condition. If you notice any issues, stop using it and contact customer service.
