Carefully remove the LaserTurn
®
1 from its protective shipping container. Gently set the LaserTurn
®
1 on a
smooth, flat, and clean surface.
Before operating the LaserTurn
®
1, it is important to let it stabilize at room temperature for at least 12 hours.
Allowing it to stabilize to room temperature will ensure that all of the alignments, preloads, and tolerances are
the same as they were when tested at Aerotech. Use compressed nitrogen or clean, dry, oil-less air to
remove any dust or debris that has collected during shipping.
Each LaserTurn
®
1 has a label listing the system part number and serial number. These numbers contain
information necessary for maintaining or updating system hardware and software. Locate this label and
record the information for later reference.
Red, anodized aluminum shipping brackets have been installed to prevent unwanted motion and potential
damage from occurring during shipment. The brackets must be removed before the LaserTurn
®
1 can be
operated. Retain the brackets and hardware for future use.
