1.5 Optical Path Calibration
For optimal performance, calibrate the optical path. Remove the sliding cover plate. Use the XCS software to move the laser module to the side, close to the button on the machine. Stick a piece of masking paper over the light outlet and press it down to form a circle. Close the lid and click "Pulse" in the software. Open the lid and observe where the laser beam passes through the masking paper. If it's not centered, adjust the grub screw on the lower right of the reflector holder using a hex key and screwdriver. Repeat the pulse test and adjustment until the laser beam passes through the center of the circle.

3. Техникалык тейлөө
3.1 Antifreeze and Water Management
Regularly check the water level in the cooling system. If the temperature drops below 10°C (50℉), ensure the correct amount of antifreeze is added to prevent freezing and damage to the laser tube. Refer to the water tank filling instructions in Section 1.2 for specific ratios.
3.2 Тазалоо
Keep the machine's interior clean to ensure optimal performance. The mirrors are magnetically attached for easy removal and cleaning. Regularly clean the lens and the rear exhaust fan. An improved air assist pump helps reduce smoke stains during operation.
4. Кыйынчылыктарды
4.1 Engraving/Cutting Inconsistencies
If you experience inconsistencies in engraving or cutting, especially with the conveyor system, ensure your material is perfectly flat. Warped materials can cause the laser to skip or result in uneven depth. Always use flat materials for best results.
4.2 Smoke Stains
While the xTool P2 features an improved air assist pump to minimize smoke stains, excessive residue might indicate insufficient ventilation or incorrect power/speed settings for the material. Ensure the exhaust pipe is properly installed and vented, and adjust settings as needed.
4.3 Тегиздөө маселелери
If your designs are not aligning correctly, especially with the rotary attachment, re-check the optical path calibration (Section 1.5). For rotary projects, ensure the object is securely fastened and the diameter measurement is accurate in the software.
