Security Statement
For the purpose of engraving or cutting with a laser engraving machine, allow the workpiece to be exposed to the high-density laser beam emitted by the laser engraving machine. The workpiece may be subject to gasification without combustion as it is pretty hot on the surface. On the other hand, most workpieces are essentially combustible, which may be ignited, leading to an open flame and consequently to the machine breakdown and environmental contamination.
- It is prohibited to store the machine in areas close to combustible and explosive substances, volatile solvents or source or heat. Instead, store it in a well ventilated, cool and dust-free place.
- Make sure that only the specific attached power cord rather than other similar power cords are used during installation.
- Clean the tripod and laser module with a dry cloth regularly when the power is off.
- Ensure to run the laser at 0°C-35°C. It is prohibited to run the machine under wet environment or in thunderstorm weather.
- Switch off the machine if it is offline for an extended period of time, and unplug the power cord.
- It is prohibited to come in contact with electronic areas with hands or other tools when the machine is connected to power supply.
- Touching any moving parts and laser module while the machine is running is prohibited.
- Before engraving, place a flat object that cannot be penetrated by the laser, such as an aluminium alloy or stainless-steel plate on the workbench, and then place processing material.
- Wear goggles to prevent vision damage arising from exposure to the laser spot during laser engraving operation.
- It is advisable to run the machine under well ventilated condition as laser engraving may generate small amount of fume or gas.
- Children under 10 years old are not allowed to run the machine without adult presence, which otherwise may lead to personal injury.
- Put in place fire extinguishers in case of use, which shall be regularly checked. It is prohibited to keep the machine unattended while it is running.
- Users should comply with the laws and regulations of the corresponding countries and regions where the equipment is located (used), abide by professional ethics, play attention to safety obligations, and strictly prohibit the use of our products or equipment for any illegal purpose. Realty will not be responsible for any violators’ legal liability under any circumstance.

Equipment Intro
Parts
List 
Assemble directions
Assemble the left Y-axis assembly: Pass the left Y-axis assembly (with the
belt up) through the X-axis assembly and put on the belt in the direction
shown in the figure: Assemble the right Y-axis and it is the same as above.
Insert two T-shaped nuts into the left and right Y-axis assembly. 
Assemble rear X-axis
profile and front X-axis profile: Lock with eight M5*20 screws. 
Assemble three tripods and control box assembly: Lock with eight screws. Push the X-axis assembly to the end and make sure it is parallel to the rear X-axis profile.
Tighten the belt and lock the belt with hexagon screws. 
Assemble 5W laser module: Assemble it into the
fixing plate and the fixed focus bar should contact with the surface of the
processed material when it is naturally vertical downward. Then lock it with
two hand screws on the right and turn the fixed focus bar clockwise until it
is attracted by the magnet. Finally plug in the laser module cord. Assemble
10W laser module: Please place the multi-level fixed focus bar between the
laser module and the processed material. Follow the tips and make the bottom
of the laser module contact with the corresponding surface of the multi-level
fixed focus bar. Finally lock with two hand screws on the right. For example,
if you engrave or cut a 2mm basswood or other material:
For better engraving effect, try to elevate the laser
module as far away from the workbench as possible on the premise that the
focal length is correct. The laser module must be installed and removed only
when the power is off.
Software installation and usage guide
The machine supports real-time working by Type-C (Light Burn or LaserGRBL) and
offline working (Light Burn only).
Start Engraving
Please follow the assembly directions to focus correctly and wipe the
protective lens of the laser module with dustless cloth and alcohol to ensure
the best engraving effect. The filter cotton in 5W lase module and the cover
for 10W laser module can be removed directly for cleaning. Offline working
First generate and engraving file (.geode/.gc/.g/.nc/.ngc) through
LightBurn, and save it to the root directory of the TF card (The machine reads
the engraving file whose modified date is latest in the root directory of the
TF card by default. It is recommended to delete other engraving files in the
root directory) Insert the TF card before powering on, connect the machine
with the supplied power adapter and power cord. Finally turn on the red switch
on the left side of the control box.
When power on, the machine emits “beep, beep, beep”.
After the machine is initialized, it enters the standby mode, and the
indicator light turns into breathing state.
Press the microswitch, it enters preview mode from standby mode, the laser
head will emit weak light, and repeat movement around the largest X, Y, edges
of the processed picture with indicator light on. At this time, adjust the
material to a suitable position. In preview mode, press microswitch again, it
enters engraving mode. At this time, the laser head will emit strong light,
the machine will start engraving with indicator light on.
Pause engraving: press the microswitch (or click “Pause” button in the
software). At this time, the indicator turns into breathing light. Press the
microswitch again to continue engraving.
Cancel engraving: Please press and hold the microswitch for 3 seconds (or
click “Cancel” button in the software), it will “beep” once, starts to reset,
and “beep” twice after reset is complicated. Enter standby mode, the indicator
light turns into breathing light. After engraving is completed, it will “beep”
three times and reset. After reset completed, it “beep” twice, enters standby
mode, and the indicator light turns into breathing light.
Real-time working
For real-time working by Type-C, please refer to the tutorial in the TF card.
During online working, do not insert the TF card and do not press the
microswitch on the control box.
Indicator status
- Light off: The machine is in power-off state, or the power is abnormal.
- Breathing light: The machine is in standby mode, you can press the microswitch to enter preview mode or engraving mode. (Present a light effect with a gradual change or light shade).
- Light flashes: the machine is in upgrade mode or abnormal, and the buzzer beeps rapidly, and it will automatically enter standby mode after the upgrades is completed or the abnormality is cleared.
- Light always on: the machine is in preview mode or engraving mode. The laser head is working, please pay attention to safety.
Exception Handling
If the machine turns on it side or moves suddenly during working, it will
turn off the laser. Motor stops moving, indicator light flashing, and buzzer
emits alarm.
Solution: Please move the machine to its original position and press
microswitch on the machine control box to continue previewing or engraving
after clearing abnormality (The microswitch only works during offline
working).
