To keep the laser head working reliably in normal operation,
Precitec
recommends that the radial seal
(1)
is replaced once a year.
Regularly check the cartridge for leaks.
Damaged gaskets or seals must be replaced.
Spray the coolant onto the new sealing ring
(after removal of the damaged one)
and click it into the cartridge.
Caution – Ambient temperature!
Different materials such as aluminium, steel and plastic have different thermal
expansion coefficients. If the ambient temperature drops below 10 °C, you
must check that the sealing ring is positioned correctly, especially when
replacing the cartridge.
