Getting the machine ready

• Pull down the field lens protector to remove it. Ensure this is done before every use.
• Ensure the emergency stop button is released. If pressed, rotate it to release.

Using your xTool F2

Press the power button to turn on the machine. Never use the emergency stop button as a power button. Visit s.xtool.com/software to download and install the required software. Connect the machine to your computer using the USB cable and connect it within the software.

Manual focus setting

Turn the knob to adjust the height of the laser module. The focus is successfully set when the red and blue light spots overlap on the material surface.

Using accessories

• Slatted panel: Use for cutting materials to reduce burn areas and protect the baseplate. Orient with openings facing the machine for optimal smoke exhaust.
• L-shaped positioning piece: Use for batch processing to maintain consistent material placement.
• Touchscreen controller: Allows manual focus adjustment, framing, and starting/stopping processing. Note: Not included in the pack.
• Rotary attachment: Align the front bottom edge to the corresponding marking line on the base. Note: Not included in the pack.

Maintenance

• Clean the field lens: If laser power drops or patterns are shallow, clean the lens with a lint-free cloth moistened with alcohol.
• Clean the fan module: If smoke is not exhausting properly, remove the pipe, open the cover, and take out the fan module. Use a brush to clean both sides. The module can be rinsed with water but must be completely dry before reinstallation.
• Lubricate the protective enclosure: If the enclosure does not move smoothly, apply white lithium grease to the edges of the two sides.
