Owner's Manual for EPILOG Legend Model 6000
December, 2000
*NOTE! The rotary device only works in Raster mode.
AIR ASSIST OPTION
The air assist option allows for deeper engraving and cutting than would otherwise be possible. The air assist
also carries away materials that might combust at the point of engraving. Generally, compressed air at 20 PSI
is adequate. If for any reason you use something other than air, be sure to ensure adequate ventilation.
INSTALLATION
The air assist is a factory-installed option, and will be present on your machine when it is delivered. You will
need to locate the air compressor that shipped with the machine and connect it. The connection point to the
Legend from the compressor is on the back panel. The Legend uses a ¼" rigid plastic quick release connector.
Simply push in the supply hose from the compressor and it is attached. You will need to plug the compressor
into a wall plug for power. Please verify the voltage listed on the compressor matches your building power.
In the upper right corner of the engraving cavity there is a flow control valve that adjusts the air volume
flowing through the line. Ensure that this valve is open, and that adequate air is flowing. Adequate airflow is
somewhat subjective, but experimenting by feel and then watching the debris movement to the exhaust vent
during engraving should allow for proper adjustment of the airflow.
In the "OPTIONS" menu in the engraver you can set when the air assist will turn on. You can select Off, On,
Raster Only, or Vector Only.
