For use at front of machine
Begin by locating the laser stylus post, the laser
holder and the laser stylus.
To attach the laser stylus to the top of the machine:
1. Locate the threaded hole on top of the machine
Installing the Laser Stylus

near the front (see Figure 2, #20, page 6). The laser
stylus guide post comes with the washer and nut on
it. Remove the nut and washer, replace the nut onto
the post and then place the washer under the nut and
onto the machine painted surface. The washer pro-
tects the painted surface when the nut is tightened.
Tighten the post clockwise until it is securely in
place. Use the nut to secure the post to the machine.
2. Be sure the laser stylus is inserted into the laser
clamp.
3. Slide the laser clamp over the post to the desired
height.
4. Plug the laser into the top port on the side of the
front electronic control pod (see Figure 9).
For use at rear of machine
To attach the laser stylus to the side of the machine:
1. Place the nut on the laser stylus post with the
washer under it and thread the laser post into the
threaded hole (see Figure 1, #11, page 5), near the
rear wheel base. Turn until securely in place. Lock
in place with lock nut. The washer will be under the
nut to protect the machine paint (see Figure 9). An
unused spool pin can also be used to mount the laser.
Follow steps 2-4 above.
Locate the threaded hole on top of the machine near
the rear by the hand wheel. The thread mast comes
with the washer and nut on it. Remove the nut and
washer, replace the nut onto the mast and then place
the washer under the nut and onto the machine
painted surface. The washer protects the painted
surface when the nut is tightened. Tighten the mast
clockwise until it is securely in place. Use the nut to
secure the mast to the machine.
Installing the Thread Mast
Note: The eyelets of the thread mast MUST be cen-
tered over the spool pins. This ensures that the cone
of thread will not pull, turn or tilt, causing thread ten-
sion problems (see Figure 10).
