4. Орнотуу

Proper setup is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your OMTech 100W CO2 Laser Engraver. Follow these steps carefully.

Алгачкы орнотуу:

1. Пакеттен чыгаруу жана жайгаштыруу: Carefully unpack the machine. Place it on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area, away from flammable materials.
2. Кубат туташуу: Машинаны туура том менен жерге туташтырылган электр розеткасына туташтырыңызtagд жана ampкурактагы талаптар.
3. Суу муздатуу системасы: Connect the included water pump to the laser tube's inlet and outlet ports. Ensure the water reservoir is filled with distilled water (and anti-freeze/coolant if necessary) and the pump is operating correctly to circulate water through the laser tube.
4. Air Assist туташуу: Connect the air pump to the air assist nozzle on the laser head. This helps prevent flare-ups and keeps the lens clean.
5. Чыгаруу системасы: Attach the exhaust hose to the machine's exhaust port and vent it outdoors or to a suitable filtration system to remove smoke and fumes.
6. Программалык камсыздоону орнотуу: Install the provided laser control software (e.g., LightBurn, RDWorks) on your computer. Connect your computer to the laser engraver via USB or Ethernet.
7. Фокусту тууралоо: Perform an initial focus adjustment according to the instructions in your detailed product manual to ensure optimal engraving and cutting performance.
