How to replace a bent or sticking auto focus pin on a MIRA.
What you need
- Cloth, to catch any screws
- 2 mm Allen key
- New auto focus pin
Replace the pin
-
Place a cloth under the laser head, resting on the blades, to catch any piece that falls.
-
Using a 2 mm Allen key, loosen the set screw on the auto focus assembly. Do not remove the screw.
-
Unscrew the auto focus pin and carefully remove it.
Do not let the red flag piece fall out of the auto focus assembly. If it does, put it back with its hole positioned inside the assembly.
-
Holding the red flag piece in place with one hand, screw in the new auto focus pin.
-
Using the 2 mm Allen key, tighten the set screw on the auto focus assembly. Do not overtighten it: turn it slowly until it is snug, then back it off by a quarter turn.
-
Press the plunger up with your finger, to check that it moves smoothly up and down.
-
To confirm that the pin is seated correctly, power the machine on and check that the red light turns on.
