are many laser machine designs but, the method of changing the belt tension should not be too complex. It is
normally a method of tightening a screw and then applying a lock nut to keep the screw in place.
Air Filters:
If a fume extractor was purchased with the machine, there will be filters installed within that fume extractor.
These air filters work best when air can move freely from one side to the other while catch dust, fumes and
other debris within the air. If the air filter is dirty the air pressure will be greatly reduced. The main application
of a fume extractor is to clean the air and absorb the dangerous smells and fumes that some material can
produce. Some of these gases can be caustic, nauseating, volatile, corrosive, or even deadly. It is best to use
multiple stages of filters to catch the particles of different sizes. New filters can be ordered from BossLaser by
contacting sales.
Chiller & Coolant:
First, automotive antifreeze should NEVER be used as a laser coolant, only deionized water. In the absence of
deionized water, distilled water can be used (tap water being a last resort). The coolant should always be
clean and clear. It Isa common problem for the coolant to become infested withhold, this often will look like a
murky green water with algae build up on the inner walls of the hoses. This issue can be solved in just a few
steps.
1.Flush out the bad water from the chiller or the water pump reservoir.
2.Create absolution of water and 20% bleach. Cycle the bleach-water solution for about 30minutes
then flush out this water.
3.Switch the inlet and outlet hoses and flush them with more cleaned distilled water. This
shoulddislodge mold from inside the laser tube.
4.The safety flow senor could also be full of mold, the best solution is to take it apart and clean itwith
soft brush or pipe cleaners. Make sure to re-assemble the sensor correctly and withoutleaks. It is
possible that harsh cleaners could creep into the sensor electronics and causepermanent damage.
✎Note: The chiller water should be changed AT LEAST once every two months.
Storage of the Laser:
Keep the laser machine in a clean, dry and warm location with no vibration. Make sure there are NO
MATERIAL(S) left on the worktable when the machine is not in use.
Use a Dehumidifier:
Humidity can cause the metal parts of the laser machine to rust, all metal at some point can rust. One
unexpected metal surface is the laser mirrors. It is best to try and control the humidity level in the laser work
area. Clean the mirrors and check for oxidation as a possible problem. Replace the mirrors that do not meet
your expectation of performance.
Make a Maintenance Schedule:
The easiest way to follow a cleaning schedule is to use a calendar and keep it close to your machine, write
the dates that you want to do maintenance on. Some maintenance is needed on a regular basis while other
cleaning could be an immediate requirement after a fire or large amount of smoke or fumes. A laser machine
that has lack of maintenance could result in a laser that is not working properly or at all and remember that
lack of maintenance can void your warranty.
Use a Heater:
If your laser is expected to be exposed to temperatures lower than50 degrees Fahrenheit, a heater is going to
be needed. The laser machine is a significant investment and should be kept warm. It is quite easy to put a
