Lasercutter Checklist

Before using/operating the lasercutter, please check the following:

• Fans are turned on
• The Laser-tube is filled with water, no bubbles are visible in the stream
• The water-pump is running without bubbles
• The water is cool
• The Z-axis is set correctly for your material
• The laser output power is set correctly for your material

Then, when making a print/cut

• Do a test-run first, with the laser power disabled, to see if your design works without errors or hitting the borders
• Position your material efficiently
• Keep the fire extinguisher nearby
• Always remain at the lasercutter when it is active
• Hit the emergency/stop button when something goes wrong

Where to get nice material for lasercutting

• Plexiglas per kilo
