Note: If an external ventilation system is
being used, make sure that it is operating
before starting the job.
Ensure tools and parts such as Spacer
Puck, wrench, debris, etc. are removed
from the Honeycomb Plate before
starting a laser job.
On the Touch Screen, verify that all
system warning icons are still white.
Press the Start Button twice to start the
job (Fig. 45).
Observe all provided warnings and safety instructions prior to and
when using the Dremel LC40 Laser Cutter. Failure to do so may
result in fire, equipment damage, property damage and/or personal injury, up to and
including death.
Always use a properly configured, installed, maintained, and
operating fume/smoke exhaust system as recommended by the
manufacturer when operating the laser system. Caustic fumes and smoke from the
engraving process must be extracted from the laser system and exhausted outside.
Never operate the laser cutter system without constant
supervision of the cutting and engraving process. Exposure to the
laser beam may cause ignition of combustible materials and start a fire.
Always use the air assist as recommended by the manufacturer,
especially while cutting. Cutting movements are relatively slow
and apply an extremely large amount of heat to the work piece. Avoid the build-up
of heat in order to reduce the risk of fire.
Do not operate when access door is open. An open door can lead to
stray radiation, increased exposure to hazardous vapors or burn
hazard.
Step 6: Run the Job
Once the job is complete, wait at least 30
seconds before lifting the glass Lid and
removing the finished part and remaining
material from the Dremel LC40 Laser
Cutter.
1. Verify that the Laser Head is not firing
and has stopped moving.
2. Wait 30 seconds, and then open the
Lid to get access to the parts.
3. If the Laser Head is above the part,
unlock the Laser Head by pressing the
“Unlock” button on the HOME menu of
the Touch Screen and then move the
Laser Head to the top left corner by
hand.
4. Carefully remove all pieces from the
Honeycomb Plate. Be careful not to
damage any part of the Dremel LC40
Laser Cutter during this process.
