Laser Cartridge Installation

Note:

  The following images illustrate a ILS12.150D laser system with two laser cartridges.  If you own a 

single laser cartridge system, you will install the single laser cartridge only.

Make sure that your power cord to the system is not plugged in at this time.  Place your finger 

1. 

on the button part of the latch until the latch is released.  Gently fold back the rear cover.  Some 
laser systems are shipped with keyed locks. 
 

Note:

  Access latches for the laser cover are lockable.  However, all systems are shipped from 

the factory with latches unlocked.  If you need to lock the latches, please contact our Customer 
Service at 480-609-0297 (USA), +43 1 402 22 50 (Austria), +81 (45) 224-2270 (Japan) or e-mail us 
at [email protected] for keys.

Visually locate the mounting blocks (1), the laser latch(es) (2) and alignment fork(s) (3).  Notice 

2. 

that the alignment fork has two plates, one small and one large.  Locate the gap between the 
two plates.
