Mend Red Machine Years

The red rollers will not roll forward or reverse?

Our machine is at least 12 years old and the red rollers recently stopped rolling. The grey rollers do roll so I am guessing that it is not the fun switch. There is no money in the school budget to fix it so any help will be appreciated.

I assume this is a GBC laminator. the Ultima 65 drive chain powers both heat rollers (red) and pull rollers (gray). If the gray rollers turn, but the red rollers don't, there may be a loose drive chain pulley on the red roller. Check to see if the pulley set screw is loose on the red roller shaft. There may be a bind in the red roller bearings which must be removed, cleaned and relubed with heat resistant lubricant (not a ten minute job!!!)
Good luck.
