3.7.4 Air Assist

Because of the danger posed by sparks during engraving and the risk of damage to the laser nozzle
and focus lenses from fumes and debris, the pressurized air begins to blow from the laser head when
the engraver starts engraving.
You should test that the pressurized air blows correctly:
1. Make sure that the air assist is in good condition.
a. Check that the air assist is correctly configured and connected as shown.
If any tubing or wiring needs to be reconnected, shut off all power to the machine (including
by pressing the Emergency Stop button) before adjusting anything.
b. Check that its air intake filter is in place, clean, and not obstructed by any nearby objects.
2. Turn the Emergency Stop button clockwise
to unlock it.
3. Press the control system power button to
turn on the engraver.
Confirm that the air assist and exhaust fan
have been activated.
4. Open the cover.
5. Confirm that the pressurized air begins to blow from the laser head.
If it does not, turn off the machine and contact customer service.
