8. Using the larger Allen wrench, attach the system to the cart using the four 1/4-20
Allen head screws and flat washers. The screws pass through the cart legs and into
the bottom of the system as shown.
9. Once all of the screws are tight, adjust the thin nut on each of the casters so that all
four wheels are touching the ground evenly. If desired, use a level gauge placed on
the engraving table and adjust the casters until the laser system is completely level.
Once level, tighten the thicker nut on the casters upwards against the bottom of the
leg frame to lock in this adjustment.
2.2 Operating Environment
Before the system is installed, choose a suitable location. Follow these guidelines:
Avoid places where the system may be exposed to high
temperatures, dust, or high humidity (humidity exceeding
70% or where the temperature is near the dewpoint). The
laser system should be installed in an office type environment.
Avoid places where the system may be exposed to high levels
of vibration or electrical noise. We recommend using a high
quality surge protector to protect the laser engraving system's
electronics.
Avoid small enclosed areas where ventilation is poor.
Choose a place where the ambient operating temperature will
remain between 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit or between 15
and 25 degrees Celsius.
Choose a place which provides a short and direct path to the
exhaust duct work (not provided).
If planning to connect the laser engraving system to a
computer through the parallel port, choose a location where
the computer can be placed within 10 feet of the machine
since this is the maximum recommended parallel cable length.
If planning to have another laser system or other type of
printer connected to the same computer, we recommend
installing an additional parallel port into the computer system.
DO NOT use a manual A/B type switch box. This creates
electrical noise which can cause an engraving problem or can
damage the laser system’s electronics.
Try to have a work table or storage area next to or nearby the
laser system. This prevents the operator from using this
precision machine as a table or storage facility.
