  • where are the mirrors on a laser so i can clean them?

    Hi All
    I need help, we have been given the use of an epilogue summit laser engraver I have been told it needs the mirrors cleaned. But I don’t know where the mirrors are or what to clean them with. I spoke to the agent and asked for him to service the machine. but since that was in May and 3 phone calls and 2 emails have elapsed since, all to no avail I’ve worked out that we are of no interest to the agent.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks Mike 😀

    Found this link if any use Mike

    http://www.epiloglaser.com/laser_manuals.htm

    The mirrors are used to bounce the laser beam from the main unit to the workpiece so they should be simple to find 😕

    I have got an epilog laser too. You will find 2 round mirrors. One is just above the lens (on your left hand side if you are in front of the machine). The other mirror is just on the opposite side (on the right side of the cross arm). I clean them with cotton tips (normal ones, from the supermarket) moistened in lens cleaning solution.
    I hope this is of help.
