Rear Laser Light
The optional laser light (for use with pantographs) is installed on a mounting post. The post is threaded into
a hole on the machine casting. The hole is found towards the back of the machine on the right side about
2 inches in front of the rear wheel; see section on the Laser Pin.
The laser projects a straight laser beam visible as a dot on surfaces it hits. The laser dot is used as a guide
enabling you to use printed pantograph designs and stitch the pattern onto a quilt by tracing the design
with the laser dot.
The laser attaches to a mounting post which attaches to the machine. The laser stylus can move in any
direction by rotating the clamp on the post and pivoting the laser up or down. To make an adjustment,
simply loosen the black thumbscrews, position, and re-tighten.
Â
IMPORTANT
: A label is attached to the laser’s case and shows an arrow which indicates the
direction of the laser light when energized. The label must remain in place on the laser. Removing
the label voids the laser’s warranty.
Laser Safety
When using the laser stylus, observe the following basic safety precautions.
• Never shine directly into the eyes.
•
The laser stylus should never be left on and unattended.
•
Do not use the laser stylus as a toy.
•
Pay close attention when the laser stylus is being used by or near children or pets.
• Use the laser stylus only for its intended use as described in this manual.
U
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Laser Operation and Safety
Unplug the laser from the front side of the machine to turn it off. Be sure the laser is attached to the
machine and pointed downward toward the table before connecting it to the port. Never point it in a
direction that would project the beam into someone’s eyes. If the laser should stop working, ensure the
plug is firmly seated into the Gallant laser port.
