Step 1.
Ensure that all the cables are correctly connected to the laser cutter, i.e you have the power and correct data cable linking the laser cutter to your computer.
If this is OK, turn on the laser cutter at the rocker power switch.
Step 2.
Wait for the laser cutter to complete its initialisation process before loading your material onto the honeycomb bed. Lower the material flat onto the
honeycomb cutting table. Locate it against the guides so that it sits in the back left hand corner of the honeycomb table (See below).
Step 3.
Use the cursor keys on the control panel to move the head of the laser over the solid material. To do this press any directional key located around the enter
button once, this will bring up the
carriage moving
screen on the lasers LCD panel. Then press and hold a directional button to move the head in that direction.
