8) SPEED AND POWER RECOMMENDATIONS
The following are general guidelines for using the Legend system. Please remember that these are only
guidelines. Depth of cut is a matter of personal preference. As such, there is no "correct" setting. Depth will
increase if the power is increased, or if the speed is decreased. Table one provides starting points for 35 watt
lasers or less. Table 2 provides starting points for 50 watts or greater.
