Laser Tube - Omtech USB1610c User Manual

5.4.1 Laser Tube Alignment
To test the alignment of the laser tube with the 1st mirror, cut out a piece of tape and place it on the mirror's frame.
DO NOT place the tape directly onto the mirror. Turn on the machine and set the power level to 15% or lower.
Press PULSE to manually fire the laser. You should be able to see a small mark on the tape. If it is not noticeable, press
PULSE again.
Pressing PULSE activates the laser. Always make sure the path is clear between the laser and its target. Never
allow foreign objects between the laser and its target. Take care not to leave any part of your body in the laser
path while pressing the PULSE button.
These marks are OK. These marks are OK.
The laser mark should be near the center of the hole. If the laser is not centered on the 1st mirror, cut the power to your
laser and carefully adjust the laser tube in its brackets. This may require loosening the screws on its stand and adjusting
its brace wheel. Be careful not to overloosen the screws and not to overtighten them. Only adjust one stand at a time.
