PL1220 Owner’s Manual
35
The PL1220 does not need to be sitting on the Z-Axis base to
operate. It has been designed where if the Z-Axis base is not
connected, everything will still work other than the auto-focus
control.
If the Z-Axis base is not connected, the focal length will need
to be set manually by twisting the cap and setting the proper
focal spacing.
The PL1220 is also designed to be used with an “open
bottom”. An example of this is when the operator would want
to engrave onto the surface of a table. The operator will move
the PL1220 to the tabletop, set the focal spacing manually
and then proceed to operate the laser.
3. After the machine has been moved and leveled, remove all zip ties from the belts and laser
head assembly with a cutting tool. There is one (1) on each belt to prevent movement in
transit, and one (1) on the laser head assembly.
CAUTION
DO NOT cut or nick the belts when removing zip ties.
The next step is to install the laser tube, which is in the following section.
