Step 1: The Components of the Machine

The Epilog mini comes with three main components:

1- The laser cutter itself.

2- The air assist pump.

3- The laser fume extractor.

Note: Always make sure that the air assist pump and the laser fume extractor are turned on before using the machine.

Step 2: Operating the Machine

As you can notice on the attached pictures, it's better to have a power stabilizer.

To operate the machine:

1- Start with turning on the power stabilizer ( if you have the same set up)

2- Turn on the the laser fume extractor.

3- Turn on the air assist pump.

Now, we need to do some quick adjustments to make the laser pointer starts from a specific point

Step 3: Using the Control Panel.

To do this:

1- Turn on the laser pointer from the front control panel.

2- Push the X/Y button to turn off the motors that move the pointer, then push the Go button.

3-Now, you can move the laser pointer manually to any starting point you want on your material.

4- Now push the set Home button.

After finishing these steps the machine is now ready to receive any printing order.

Note: Make sure the machine is installed properly on your computer with all the drivers and software needed: You can visit this link for more information: https://www.epiloglaser.com/tech-support/mini-heli...
