1.5 Components
Front View
A. Cover—The cover provides access to the main bay for placing and retrieving materials, as well as fixing the laser path
alignment and other maintenance. Power to the laser is automatically cut when the cover is opened.
B. Viewing Window—The polycarbonate window is shielded to protect you and others from the laser and its reflection,
allowing monitoring of the engraving process. However, you should never stare continuously at the laser during opera-
tion, even through the window.
C. X-Axis Rail—The X-axis rail holds the 2nd mirror and LED lighting. It also supports the movement of the laser head
left and right across the workbed.
D. Y-Axis Rails—The two Y-axis rails support the movement of the X-axis rail up and down the workbed.
E. Workbed—The workbed can be adjusted in height to fit thinner and thicker materials, as well as adjusted between the
aluminium and honeycomb platforms. This is also where the accessories pack is located when the engraver first
arrives.
F. Laser Head—The laser head holds the 3rd mirror, the focus lens, the red dot guidance, and the air assist outlet.
G. Upper Right Access Door—This door provides access to the underside of the control panel for troubleshooting and
wiring repairs.
H. Front Access Door—This door provides access to the area below the workbed for easy cleanup.
I. Connection Ports—This panel includes the machine's ports for its USB, computer, and Ethernet connections.
J. Main Power Switch—This switch controls the main power supply to the machine.
K. Lower Right Access Door—This door provides access to the mainboard, motor drivers, and power supplies. Its vents
keep components from overheating during prolonged use and should not be obstructed.
L. Caster Wheels—The front wheels include locks to hold the engraver in place.
M. Feet—These feet can be rotated down to help anchor the machine in place.
