Power on the VersaLASER. Load some scrap
material of the same type you intend to process
and set focus using the Focus Tool. Adjust the
angle of the nozzle by loosening the thumbscrew
(1), rotating the bracket, and re‐tightening the
thumbscrew. You can also adjust the height (2) by
loosening the mounting thumbscrew, making the
adjustment and re‐tightening the thumbscrew.
Use the Red Dot pointer as your guide to where
the laser beam will strike the material.
WARNING: Since the AABS hangs downwards
toward the surface of your material and the
surface of the table, ensure that the motion of
the Focus Carriage will not cause the AABS to
mechanically interfere with your material or
components of the VersaLASER otherwise serious
damage may occur.
Usage
If this is the first time using the AABS, open the needle valve all the way, counter clockwise. This will
result in maximum airflow. To lock the adjustment in place, rotate the round locking nut clockwise until
it seats.
Load and run a job. Make sure that the CCCAU unit turns on (if purchased) or your compressed air
source is operating when the job starts processing. Observe how the smoke is being pushed away. If
you would like to reduce the flow or to change the angle or height of the airflow, pause the job and
adjust as necessary.
