Squaring the Laser Head MIRA

Steps

1. Remove the honeycomb tray.
2. Using the keypad, press the Z/U button until the Z Move is highlighted.

   

   Press the LEFT & RIGHT arrow keys to adjust the table until the 90° square sits on the blades, and can be comfortably positioned on the left side of the laser head. Set the square aside.

   

   ⚠️CAUTION ⚠️ Never try to raise the table with the square beneath the laser head. The table should always be LOWERED , not raised.

   ☠️ WARNING ☠️ Turn off your machine before the next step.

3. Place a cloth under the laser head, resting on the blades. This will catch any bolts that may fall.
4. Using a 2.5mm Allen key, remove the 2 bolts holding the autofocus assembly to the laser head, hang it out of the way.

   

5. Slide out the lens holder cartridge. Set the bolts, cartridge, and Allen key aside.

   

6. Place a 90° square against the blades and the left side of the laser head. Bend down and look at the laser head at eye level. Look for a gap between the square and the laser head.

   

7. If there is a gap, you will need to carefully adjust the laser head. Using a 2.5mm Allen key, loosen ONLY the lower bolt ½ of a turn.

   

8. If the gap is larger toward the bottom of the laser head, tilt the laser head right with your hand.
   If the gap is larger toward the top, tilt left.
   If you are unable to tilt the head, loosen the bottom bolt another ½ turn with the Allen key, and repeat.

   

9. Once you can confirm it is as square as possible, tighten the bottom bolt slowly with the Allen key, without moving the head. Check it is square one last time.
