4.4 Recommended Speeds for Materials

Selecting the appropriate speed setting is crucial for optimal results and to prevent damage to the material or the bit. Here are general recommendations:

• Wood: Medium speed (approx. 15,000 RPM) for outlining and filling.
• Metal: Low-Medium speed (approx. 10,000 RPM) for clean lines and dot accents.
• Glass/Stone: Lowest speed (approx. 7,500 RPM) with ultra-light pressure to avoid heat marks and for a frosted look.
• Leather: Low-Medium speed (approx. 10,000 RPM) with gentle pressure to avoid burns or gouges.
• Acrylic/Plastics: Low-Medium speed (approx. 10,000 RPM). Keep the bit moving to prevent heat buildup and smearing.

The engraving pen is suitable for multiple project types and materials.

6.1 Cleaning

After each use, gently wipe the engraving pen and bits with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dust or debris. For stubborn residue, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring the device is completely dry before storage. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

6.2 Storage

Store the engraving pen and its bits in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use the provided bit storage case to keep bits organized and protected from damage.

7. Troubleshooting

• Pen not turning on: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to the USB-C charger and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on again.
• Weak engraving/no mark: Check that the bit is securely installed. Ensure the correct speed setting is selected for the material being engraved. The bit may be worn and require replacement.
• Excessive heat during operation: Reduce the speed setting or apply less pressure. Ensure the bit is moving continuously on the material to prevent heat buildup.
• Inconsistent engraving: Ensure the material surface is clean and stable. Practice on test pieces to refine your technique and pressure application.
