  • The object to be processed and corresponding emissions shall comply with the requirements of local laws and regulations.
  • This machine adopts four types of laser equipment (strong laser radiation), which may cause the consequences as follows:
    1. ignite the ambient combustibles;
    2. Other radiation or toxic and harmful gases may be produced during the laser processing of different objects;
    3. Direct exposure in laser radiation can cause physical injury. Fire-fighting equipment must be available on the site. It’s prohibited to stack flammable and explosive materials on the workbench and around the equipment. At the same time, the site must have good ventilation.
  • The place to use the machine should be dry, free from interference and influences by pollution, vibration, strong electricity and magnetism. Ambient temperature should be 10-35°C and humidity should be 5-95% (no condensing water)
  • Working voltage: AC100-240V.
  • The engraving machine and other related equipment must be safely grounded before it switched on for operation.
  • The machine must be fully monitored during the whole operation process. All power must be cut off before personnel departure to prevent abnormal consequences. In case of any accidents, please cut off the power immediately!
  • It’s prohibited to place any irrelevant objects with total reflection or diffuse reflection in the machine to prevent the laser from being reflected to human body or flammables.
  • Keep the machine away from electrical equipment which is sensitive to electromagnetic interference, otherwise electromagnetic interference may occur.
  • Laser machine has high voltage or other potential dangers, it’ s prohibited to be dissembled by non-professionals.

Pay attention

  1. When the laser is turned on, it’ s prohibited to aim at humans, animals and flammables to avoid skin burns and fire.

FAQ

K6 FAQ

No response from the machine when being powered on

  • No power supply: Please check the socket and switch as well as the machine power socket to ensure that they have been correctly plugged with normal power supply.

It cannot be connected to computer

  1. USB cable not connected: Please check the USB data cable interface on the machine and computer to ensure it’ s correctly plugged. The USB interface on the front panel of some desktop computers is invalid, it’ s better to connect to the interface on the back.
  2. Driver not properly installed: Install the driver according to the instructions. After the installation is done, the computer will recognize the device as a serial port, which means the hardware connection is OK.
  3. Other special problems: Pull out the USB data cable and power cable, keep the machine power off for 5 seconds and then try the connection once again.

No response from the phone APP when being connected to the machine

  1. Wrong Bluetooth connection: Make sure it’ s connected to the Bluetooth released by the machine. Please read “App Connection” in the User Manual for details.
  2. Incompatibility: In the case of abnormal connection due to incompatibility of newly-released phone or upgraded system, please contact our customer service with the screens hot of phone configuration so as to get technical support as soon as possible.

Shallow engraving effect or no traces

  1. Inaccurate focus: Refer to the “Focus Adjustment” in the User Manual to make the correct focus.
  2. Engraving speed: Too fast speed is due to short burning time. Please read the “Engraving Parameters” in the User Manual to readjust the parameters.
  3. Photo color is too light: The photo added should be clear. If the line is too thin or the color is too light, the engraving effect will be directly influenced.
  4. Position of object to be engraved: If the object is placed obliquely, the focal length of laser is fixed, so the object should be placed horizontally in parallel to the machine; otherwise, the inaccurate focal length will result in bad engraving effect.

Offline engraving unexpectedly stops

  1. The photo is not completely downloaded when being connected to computer, please download the photo once again.

Inaccurate focus

  1. Read the ”Focus” in the User Manual. Please use the yellow focus plate provided with the camera to make the focus. If the focus plate is missing, a thin and rough yellow or white cardboard can be used as the substitution to make the focus once again. Please contact the on line customer service for relevant information.
