Step 3: Assembling and Connecting Your Laser System
Familiarize yourself with the instructions before getting started.
The final step in installation is to assemble your laser system, install the laser cartridge, make
final connections and perform a beam alignment check. Do not power up your laser system until
the final step, “Checking Beam Alignment”.
Laser System Assembly VLS3, VLS4, & VLS6
1. Uncrate the laser system.
2. Move the laser system to the location in which you intend to operate it and lock the casters.
3. Attach your exhaust system's wire-reinforced rubber hose to the exhaust port at the rear of the
laser system and secure it with a hose clamp.
Note: If it becomes necessary to move the laser system through narrow doorways to install in its
intended location, the system can be detached from the cart and transported in two pieces. If so,
follow the steps below after removing any packing material or accessories inside, if not, skip to the
laser cartridge installation.
a. Tape the front and top doors closed using strong shipping tape, prior to lifting the laser system
off the cart, to ensure they stay closed.
b. Locate and remove the six screws (VLS3 & 4) or eight (VLS6) that attach the cart to the laser
system (see below). Two (VLS3 & 4) or four (VLS6) screws secure the back panel of the cart to
the back of the laser system and four screws secure the cart legs to the bottom of the laser
system.
c. Lift the laser system off the cart and place the laser system, on its side, on a dolly for transport.
d. The cart and laser system can now be moved separately to the install location.
e. With the assistance of another person reassemble in reverse order by placing the cart into
position first and locking the casters. Then carefully line up the laser system, using the alignment
pins on the cart legs, and place it on top of the cart.
f. Use the screws to secure the laser system to the cart, leave the screws slightly loose.
g. Open the front door all the way to ensure that it does not rub on or interfere with the cart legs.
If the door should come in contact with the cart legs, gently pull the cart legs apart to ensure
there is no contact between the door and the cart legs. Tighten the screws.
