Preparing Material - Omtech SH-G570 User Manual

4.2.3 Preparing Material

1. Open the engraver's cover.
2. Place a sample piece of your material on the workbed.
The default location of the laser head's zero position is at the top left corner of the workbed.
This can be changed by moving either your design or the engraver's origin position using the
control panel or your engraving software.
For instructions on material safety, see
DO NOT insert anything through the pass-through doors other than the
material once the laser is active. Pay special attention to the fumes and dust
that may be released through these doors. Be sure that your ventilation
system is strong enough to pull in all of the byproducts or wear the necessary
PPE to ensure the health of users and passersby.
For heavier pieces of material, be careful to
distribute its weight as evenly as possible
across reinforced supports. For larger pieces of
material, you may open the front and rear pass-
through doors.
3. Close the engraver's cover.
Exercise caution with your hands when closing the cover.
