INTRODUCTION
How to Use This Owner’s Manual
Thank you for purchasing an GweikeCloud Laser system. Your GweikeCloud system
has been designed to be easy to operate, but you will utilize it to its fullest potential by taking
some time to read this owner’s manual prior to use. You will be ready to use the
GweikeCloud Laser system as soon as you read the first few sections. Then you can refer
to topics in the remaining sections, as you work.
Ⅰ. SAFETY
1. Laser Safety
The operator of the Gweikecloud should observe the following general precautions:
:
01
DO NOT disassemble the machine or remove any of its protective covers while the
unit is plugged in.
DO NOT attempt to defeat the door interlocks.
DO NOT view directly into the beam of the Laser Diode Pointer (Red Dot Pointer).
DO NOT operate the Laser Diode Pointer (Red Dot Pointer) without the machine’s
focus lens in place. If the unfocused beam strikes a reflective surface, it could be directed
out of the cabinet.
Caution – Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
The standard reference for laser safety is the American Standard for the Safe Use of
Lasers, Z136.1-2000, developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). This
reference is the basis for many of the federal regulations for laser and laser system
manufacturers, and for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) laser
safety guidelines. It contains detailed information concerning proper installation and use of
laser systems.
While the ANSI standard itself does not have the force of law, its recommendations,
including warning signage, training, and the designation of a laser safety officer, may be
compulsory under local workplac regulations when operating laser systems above Class I.
2. Electrical Safety
The AC input power to the Gweikecloud Laser System is potentially lethal and is fully
contained within the cabinet.
DO NOT open any of the machine’s access panels while the unit is plugged in.
Opening a panel may expose the operator to the unit’s AC input power.
DO NOT make or break any electrical connections to the system while the unit is
turned on.
Electrical Specifications
POWER 550W
Voltage 100-240V
Circuit Current 13amp
Bandwidth 50hz/60hz
3. Fire Safety
02
3. Fire Safety
The gweikecloud unit’s laser cuts and engraves with a beam of high-intensity
infrared light. The laser can generate extremely high temperatures in the material being cut
or engraved. Under some circumstances, it is possible for the material inside the
gweikecloud unit to ignite and for the flame to spread outside of the area being cut or
engraved. If ignited, the flame could destroy your unit and spread, potentially setting fire to
the building.
KEEP YOUR LASER SYSTEM CLEAN – A build-up of cutting and engraving residue
and debris is dangerous and can create a fire hazard.
Keep your laser system clean and free of debris. Regularly remove the cutting grid to
clean any small pieces that have gotten stuck or fallen through.
1. Certification/Identifi-
cation Plate: This engraved
plate is located on the right
side of the machine’s cabi-
net.

above the aperture, inside the cabinet,
where laser beams
enter the machine’s engraving Area, one on
the left cabinet door.
05
Aperture Safety Label: This label is located

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense.This product contains a Certified transmitter module
(wireless network)
Do and Don’t
Don’t
1、Do Not Run the Laser Unvented: Never operate the machine without a properly
operating vent to the outside or to a filtration unit! Most material will only produce an irritating
smoke when engraved.Some materials, including but not limited to paint, varnish,
composition board and plastics, produce compounds that can be harmful if concentrated. A
06
properly installed vent is the only way to ensure that problems do not occur.
2、Do Not Operate Machine While Unattended: Never operate your machine without
someone watching the system. There is a significant risk of fire if the machine is set
improperly, or if the machine should experience a mechanical or electrical failure while
operating.
3、Do Not Vector Cut While Machine is Unattended: Never laser cut any material with
the laser without someone watching the system. Because vector cutting moves relatively
slowly compared to raster engraving, a tremendous amount of heat is applied to the material
being cut. This buildup of heat can cause significant fire risk and the machine should always
be monitored. Additionally, the Air Assist should always be turned on when vector cutting to
reduce the risk of fire.
4、Do Not Operate The System While Doors are Open: Never operate with any of the
covers or enclosures removed, and never modify the enclosure. The laser beam is invisible
and is very dangerous!
Do
Clean the System: Please allow a few minutes a week for cleaning your machine. Just
a small amount of
effort at the end of the week will pay off with years of trouble-free operation of your
machine.
See the section “SYSTEM MAINTENANCE” on page 122 for specifics.

Ⅶ.Problem And Resolve
1.How to adjust the focus?
1) The system automatically defaults the cutting material thickness to 3mm. If the
cutting material thickness is 3mm, there is no need to adjust the focus.
2) If the cutting material is of other thickness (within 0-17mm), place the material on
the honeycomb panel, enter the website operation page, and click the blank area above
the Select SVG on the left side of the page (as shown in the green box in Figure 1), in
Focus Height Enter the parameters and click Confirm to complete (refer to Table 1 for focal
length parameters). For example, when the material thickness is 2mm, the Focus Height is
set to 17mm-2mm=15mm. Enter 15mm in Focus Height. Among them, 17mm is a fixed
value, and Focus Height value=17mm-material thickness.
