Question Tips on what to look for when buying a 2yr old pre-owned laminator?? (Guardian)

[Mascitti Bro]

I don't think the place is in business any longer, so a demonstration might be a challenge. Tips??

so are you buying sight unseen or at an auction?

• cuts/damage to the rubber pressure wheels
• flats spots on rubber wheel
• try to adjust the wheels and see if there is any sag or one area touches more than another.
• wheels rotate/turn smoothly and easily
  
• powers up and runs

rollers should be pristine or I'd pass.
everything else should be working fine..... its a pretty simple mechanism, and hard to beat-up in only 2yrs.

Found out about it, and it's just a couple hrs or so away, these are all great tips. Thanks guys.

If it's heat or heat assist, make sure that works as well. Usually takes about 15-30 minutes to get up to temperature on most models.
