3.6 Exhaust System

Install the provided exhaust pipes directly to the fans. The pipes can be expanded to a full length of about 5 feet (1.5 m).
The other end should be connected to a dedicated purifier or (if the fumes are not hazardous and meet local and national
air safety standards) placed out a window. NEVER operate the laser if the vents are not purifying or removing the
fumes produced by the target material. Research materials before use and never operate the laser on any (such as PVC,
teflon, and other halogen-containing substances) that can produce corrosive, hazardous, or even deadly fumes.

3.7 Main Power Connection

Confirm that the labeling beside the connection socket on the machine matches your power supply. Connect one end of
the main cable to the connection socket and the other end to a grounded outlet. Under NO circumstances should you
switch on the device if the voltages do not correspond.
Fluctuation along the line should be less than 5%. If this is exceeded, the fuses will blow. They are located in the
connection socket and are accessible from the exterior. Similarly, do not connect this device to standard extension cords
or power strips. Connect it directly to a grounded outlet or use a surge protector rated over 2000J.
3.8 Control Computer
See the software manual for details on the requirements for the control computer. The control computer can be connected
using the provided USB cable (via the port marked "USB Cable to PC"), using the provided Ethernet cable (via the port
marked "Ethernet Cable"), or using the internet if the engraver has been connected to it using the Ethernet cable. If the
control computer is directly connected to the engraver, it should not be placed more than 15 feet (4.5 m) away in order
to avoid possible interference to the signal on its line. Familiarize yourself with the software's image design features
and laser control settings before using it to operate the laser.
