5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
5.1 Tixgħel/Jitfi
To power on the machine, flip the physical switch located on the control panel. To power off, flip the switch back to the OFF position.
5.2 Tħejjija tal-Materjal
Place your chosen material flat on the engraving bed. Ensure it is securely positioned to prevent movement during operation. The machine can engrave and cut a variety of materials, including:
- Materjali tal-inċiżjoni: Wood, bamboo, cardboard, plastic, leather, PCB plate, oxidized aluminum, non-dazzling electroplating and lacquered metal, 304 mirror stainless steel, glass, ceramic, cotton, slate.
- Materjali tal-Qtugħ: Cardboard, non-woven fabric, wood, acrylic, thin plastic plates, sponges.
