Video showing you guys the first cleaning we did on the new laser. Was actually surprised about the amount of dust on the lense with the amount of work we have done with it. When we get some of our ideas fleshed out here and get this thing pumping out orders, I would expect to be cleaning it at minimum once a week, maybe even twice if we are busy enough.

Excellent video and instruction. Took me about 4 minutes to clean. I used isopropyl alcohol. My laser works just like NEW!
noticed the grill being used instead of an overpriced honeycomb. Ingenious! You just saved me over $100
Thanks! Very helpful. Had a bit of an accident cutting in wood with lots of resin in it. It caught fire but fortunatly only the plastic was damaged, but quite a lot of soot that I had to clean up. This video helped!
I'm cleaning mine today, and I'm a bit nervous. Thank you for making this video and sharing!
Thanks, I've beyond imagination & was afraid to clean it & moved more to my F1 for fear I abused my D1 10w pro... off to cleaning, saving this video ❤
Glad this helped! How are you liking the F1?
Thanks🙏🏻🙏🏻
thank you how would you clean the top where the fan is?
He sound like a wound care nurse. Cleaning in a little circle from the inside out. Lol.
Does the laser leave a mark where it crosses the supporting rack's wires? I'm looking for a better solution and the rack looks like it works nicely.
Actually haven't seen any markings on the baking rack. Maybe some residue from cutting wood but nothing permanent. I will say it's a little to thin, and is not perfectly flat so clamping wood down to it doesn't work all that well for the bowed pieces of plywood.
Your video is so good, I followed your instructions but I have a problem, I need help. Now I do not have the laser light when I try to cut. I took off the nozzle again and I have one. When put back together I do not. I don't know what to do. My nozzle has no blockages. Please help.
Could be the nozzle not seating correctly. Im assuming the light is the laser beam itself and not the framing cross laser correct? Running the laser with 1% power with the nozzle off shows the beam correct? Are you using the air assist? If not you could try rotating the nozzle around the see if there is a misalignment issue. Inspect the hole at the end of the nozzle to see of its centered, sometimes they are off centered a little and got through QC
I'm having the same issue.
Cleaning should not be awkward. Busy labors need cleaned EVERYDAY.
Should be much more convenient
How to replace the laser module cooling fan? I have removed 4 screws on top of the fan cover and 2 screws on the back of the module but unable to remove the circuit board. I am just wondering if you have experience with this. Thank you.
I Haven't had to tear down the laser module yet, so I'm not really sure. it appears to be a slide in design. I would check by the laser emmiter to see if anything is holding it in from the bottom of the module. Would definitely take it slow and not apply to much force on it. probably all should come out together in one piece if i had to guess.
Thanks so much for responding. I was able to replace the fan. After removing 6 screws, the circuit board slides out with some wiggling effort. Since I got the module opened, I used some light air spray to blow off some build-up from inside. It was a good tune-up in my opinion.

Awesome! Glad you got that figured out and everything went smoothly.@@user-gi9nd2jn7d
I just followed and instead of cleaning I replaced my lense now it wont cut thru at all any ideas?
I would lower the power to like 1%, and if using light burn you can fire the laser manually and check the shape of the dot and see if it looks like a nice tight circle. Move the head up and down to see if the focus height changed on you or if the laser isn't going straight through the lens cuasing a dishaped laser dot.
Can I use acetone instead of the rubbing alcohol?
Acetone is pretty volatile. Would eat the paint around the housing for the laser module and lens cover.
@@PottersVinylsAndMore Also these lens are specially coated and anything other than 99% alcohol would remove the coating and the efficacy of the lens.
That’s why I use air assist
You should be using denatured alcohol, not regular household alcohol. Regular alcohol will leave a haze on the lens, denatured alcohol is designed for laser lenses, cameras, cd/dvd laser lenses etc.
I'll look into it thanks! Isopropyl was readily available and haven't replaced the lense cover since purchasing yet. Probably got 600+ hours on it so far.
