5 OPERATING
This chapter describes the function of the controls and indicators, the operating modes, how to set
up and operate the machine and a number of applications.
The sections in this chapter are placed in a sequence in which the information is needed for
laminating processes.
For the mounting process the sections 5.3 and 5.4 can be skipped with the exception of setting the
pressure (see section 5.4.5).

This section gives an overview of the functions of the controls on the control panel (Figure 7) and
