Assembly Stage 4: Assemble the Air Compressor
Air is used as a pressurized gas to assist in cutting and engraving operations. This pressurized
air is critical to safe and efficient cutting operations as it not only helps cut through material more
quickly, but also helps prevent the formation of flames. For Coolbox users, skip this step and refer to
Appendix A: Coolbox Assembly.
1. Attach Push Fitting: Remove the air compressor from its packaging. Gently attach the air hose
push fitting to air compressor.
Figure 3.13
2. Attach Air Hose to Air Compressor: Push one end of the black air inlet hose into the air
compressor push fitting until it is snug.
PRO TIP! We recommend that you attach the laser and water
pump to a power strip and use that to control the mains power
to the unit - this ensures that the water pump is always on when
the laser is powered.
CAUTION! Make sure that there are no air bubbles inside
of the water jacket of the laser tube. Air bubbles can create
local hot spots in the lasing chamber and reduce the lifetime
of your tube. If present, water bubbles typically migrate
to the electrodes on either end of the tube. You should
visually inspect the laser tube to make sure that bubbles are
not present; slightly tilting the laser while powering on the
circulation pump is usually sufficient to remove bubbles.
NOTE: Not needed if
you have a coolbox
