¶ When & Why
- At least once every week.
- Dust and grease may accumulate on the laser lens protector over time, which will significantly decrease the engraving and cutting capability of the laser or even lead to damage to the laser lens protector itself. Therefore, you need to clean the laser lens protector to recover the engraving and cutting capability of the module.
¶ Before You Start
Power off the machine and detach the laser module from the machine.
¶ Tools Required
- Cotton swabs
- Ethyl alcohol
The purity of the ethyl alcohol should be at least 75%. The 99% ethyl alcohol works best.
¶ Procedures
- Moisten a cotton swab with ethyl alcohol.
- Stick the cotton swab into the air concentrator hood to wipe the surface of the laser lens protector from center to margin clockwise until there is no dust, grease, or water.
The cotton swab is a single-use tool. If there is still dust or grease remaining on the laser lens protector after you wipe it once, take a new cotton swab and repeat to clean it again.
