The laser stylus projects a straight laser beam visible as
a dot on surfaces it hits. The laser dot is used as a guide
or stylus, allowing you to stitch the same pattern onto a
quilt that is being traced with the laser dot.
Laser Operation and Use
There is not a separate on/off switch for the laser. Power
is supplied to the laser when it is plugged into the
Janome Quilt Maker Pro 18. Be sure the laser is attached
to the Janome Quilt Maker Pro 18 and pointed downward
toward the table before connecting it to the port. Never
point it in a direction that would project the beam into
someone’s eyes. If the laser should cease to operate,
check to ensure the plug is firmly seated into the Janome
Quilt Maker Pro 18 laser port.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or
performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Laser Focus/Laser Image Size
This high quality laser is focusable. The laser is focused
by simply grasping the threaded housing surrounding
the lens and turning clockwise or counter-clockwise (see
Figure 10). The laser image can be adjusted bigger or
smaller. The direction of rotation needed is determined
by the distance of the laser from the intended focal
plane. Experiment by turning the threaded end to
achieve your desired focal size.
Clamp Adjustment
The laser attaches to a mounting post. The post may be
vertical or horizontal. The clamp is designed to articulate
in any direction by rotating the clamp on the post and
pivoting the laser up or down. To make an adjustment,
simply loosen the black thumbscrews, position, and
retighten.
Location of Laser Labels
The label is attached to the case of the laser and
contains an arrow which indicates the direction the laser
light will shine when energized. The label must remain
in place on the laser. Removal of the label will void the
laser’s warranty.
