5.3 Engraving Proper
Step 1. Tap to engrave your design.
Step 2. Tap on the control panel to completely stop work, return to the beginning of the
design, and reset the laser head back to its origin
Step 3. Open the cover and check that the engaved pattern is desired. If not, adjust the
parameters as needed. For details, see
§
5.6.
Step 4. Remove the sample material and place the actual material for engraving.
Step 5. Tap to initiate.
•
DO NOT stare continuously at the active laser even while wearing laser
glasses but watch during use for possible issues like sparks and be prepared
to quickly extinguish a fire if necessary.
•
To halt the engraving, tap on the control.
•
If there is ever an emergency situation such as a fire, DO NOT use the
control panel to pause or stop the engraving. Hit the emergency stop button
IMMEDIATELY.
By default, your chiller will attempt to keep its cooling liquid between 77
°
and 88
℉
(25–31
℃
) to ensure optimal functioning. If this range restricts
your work too much, for a somewhat shorter service life, you can adjust
the chiller’s settings. (See
§
7.2 below.) The laser tube should still be
able to run indefinitely so long as the cooling liquid remains below 100
℉
(38
℃
). Once this temperature is reached, however, stop work and allow
time for your system to cool before resuming use.
5.4 Wrappping-up
Step 1. Once the laser has stopped, examine the quality of your first run and adjust the laser
parameters on the control panel or in your engraving software as necessary to create the
desired effect.
