LaserVision® AUTO Instructions - Maintenance

There is no set interval for checking the calibration of the LaserVision® AUTO, but calibration should be checked from time to time in order to ensure that the highest possible quality of work is being done. Calibration should always be checked if the laser has been handled roughly or shipped by common carrier.

Batteries

From time to time, remove the batteries and check the contacts for corrosion. Alkaline batteries will last far longer than carbon batteries. If you use Ni-Cad rechargeable batteries, be careful to never charge alkaline or carbon batteries. Also, do not charge Ni-Cad batteries too often. Ni-Cad batteries should be charged after about 20 to 24 hours of operation. Never run the laser from the charger unless there are rechargeable (Ni-Cad) batteries installed. Keep a spare set of batteries in the carrying case to avoid down time.

Laser output windows

Regularly check the output windows for dust and dirt. Dust can be removed with a camera brush or clean compressed air.

Control panel and exterior

Clean the control panel and the other exterior surfaces of the laser with a soft damp cloth.

Tripod mounting thread

Occasionally, the threaded hole for the tripod bolt should be lubricated with a light oil.

Caution

Never store the laser in a carrying case that is wet inside. Moisture can get inside the laser this way. Should this happen, remove the battery cover and place the laser and the open case in a warm area until it is completely dry (free of condensation inside windows).
