Finally brought home a laser engraver. No its not one of those nice brand spanking new Epilogs or even a Rabbit or a Trotec. Its a 5 year old Hurricane Hugo 60 watt machine that they were unable to get the laser to fire. After getting it home I found a few of the problems.
1. The 6" ducting hole was reduced to 3 or 4 inches which would explain why the inside of the machine looks like they were burning the wood or running the laser to high.
2. Extremely dirty inside.
3. For some reason the laser high power lead from the laser power supply to the laser was cut in 2 and twisted together. That one by itself scares me.
The only saving grace is a "0" hour 60 watt tube from lightsource.
The machine has a tremendous "z" and it did include the rotary attachment.
It will need a thorough cleaning before any real troubleshooting can start and maybe a new high power lead if I can't install a new end.
