Istruzioni per l'uso
1. Power On and Software Launch
Turn on the main power switch on the engraver. Launch your preferred software (EZCad or LightBurn) on your computer.
2. Preparazione del materiale
Place your material securely on the workbed. Ensure it is flat and stable to prevent movement during engraving.
3. Regolazione della messa a fuoco
The laser engraver is equipped with a red dot indicator to assist in adjusting the focus. Press the focus button to activate the red dot guider. Adjust the height of the laser head until the two red dots converge into a single, sharp point on the material surface. This indicates optimal focus.
