● Always inspect the laser cutter for damage or breakage before each use. Do
not operate machinery that is damaged or defective in any way.
● Always have a clean, level, and open work space to unbox and place your
laser cutter.
● Never modify, disassemble, or in any way alter the construction of the laser
and never start up a system that has been modified or disassembled.
● Never leave the laser system unattended during operation.
● Do not disassemble the machine or remove any of its protective covers.
●Always have on hand a first-aid kit designed for the initial treatment of burns
and smoke inhalation. Be sure to store this kit in an area that is outside risk areas.
●Never operate the machine with any of the panels removed. Be aware that
removal of any portion of the cabinet will expose the laser system and greatly
increase the risk of injury and/or fire. Personal injury and fire risks are especially
pronounced if the machine is operated with the bottom panel removed.
● Never place hands or fingers into moving parts such as cooling fans.
Setup Precautions
Follow all safety protocols and procedures before operating any machinery. It is the responsibility of
the operator to ensure all safety precautions are correctly followed, and that the machine is properly
assembled and in working order.
Section I. Safety

Safety During Operation
The output of the fiber engraving laser is fully contained in a Class 3 enclosure during normal operation.
However, the output beam is accessible to the operator during normal operation, giving the total system an
overall rating of Class 3B. Class 3 lasers have minimal safety concerns when used properly and handled with
care. The laser system is designated as Class 3B due to the fact that safety glasses must be used when
observing the laser engraving process.
Follow these Safety Guidelines at all times:
●Never engrave or cut any unknown material. The vaporization/melting of many
materials, including but not limited to PVC and polycarbonates, can give off hazardous
fumes. Please refer to the MSDS sheet from the material manufacturer to determine the
response of any work material to extreme heat (burning/fire hazard).
●Never operate the machine in an area without a proper ventilation. Most materials
produce an irritating smoke when engraved. Some materials, including but not limited to
paint, varnish, composition board, and plastics possess toxic compounds.
● Always use the provided safety glasses when looking at the laser.
●Never aim any laser towards an aircraft or vehicle that is in motion.
General Safety
WARNING!
CAUTION!
5

Laser cutting and engraving systems can present a significant fire hazard due to the extremely high
temperatures generated by the laser beam. While the objective of most cutting and engraving operations
is to vaporize material without burning, most materials capable of being cut or engraved are inherently
combustible and can ignite. Usually this is a small flame of burning material issuing from the cut zone which
self-extinguishes due to the air assist or depowering of the beam. However, it is possible for the flame to
propagate and set fire to the machine and its surroundings.
Fire Safety
Always keep a properly maintained and inspected 5lbs. or larger fire extinguisher on hand.
Full Spectrum Laser recommends a Halogen or multipurpose dry chemical fire extinguisher.
Halogen extinguishers are more expensive than a dry chemical, but offer certain advantages
should you ever need to use an extinguisher. The Halogen extinguisher are expensive but easy
clean, while the dry chemical extinguisher discharges a sticky, corrosive powder that is very
difficult to clean up.
Warning! Stacking materials can lead to increased risk of flame propagation or work piece
ignition. Always keep the area around the machine clean and free of clutter.
Never store any flammable materials near the device.
Never operate your machine unattended. There is a significant risk of fire if set improperly, or if
a mechanical or electrical failure occurs while operating.
CAUTION!
Fiber Galvo Materials
Below are a list of materials usable with your Galvo.
Warning!! Using any material not listed below may void your warranty and may pose a fire risk!
Note: The Fiber Galvo is capable of cutting all these materials but specializes on engraving on metals. 6

The power supply is capable of releasing a current up to 45 mA. This power is sent to the discharge terminals
on the laser tube itself. In order to prevent access to bare wiring your laser shipped in a protected box. Please
notify Full Spectrum Laser support and immediately cease operations if the covers ever slip and expose bare
wire.
Note: When performing any replacement procedures, make sure the machine is off for at least an
hour.
●Do not open any of the machine’s access panels while the unit is plugged in.
Opening a panel may expose the operator to the unit’s power box, which is potentially
lethal.
● Never make or break any electrical connections to the system while the unit is
turned on.
● Never access any electrical areas with hands or tools unless the unit is
disconnected from the power for at least one hour.
●Never replace the installed 20 amp fuse with one of a higher rating. This will void
your warranty and the electronics will not be adequately protected from surges or short
circuits.
●POWER ON/OFF is controlled by the switch at the back of the machine. The
machine is on when the (-) side is pressed and off when the “o” side is.
● In case of a blown fuse always contact Technical Support before replacing
anything.
The standard for laser safety is the American Standard for the Safe Use of Lasers, Z136.12000. Developed
by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) it is the basis for many federal regulations and
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines for laser and laser system
manufacturers. It contains detailed information concerning the proper installation and use of laser systems.
While the ANSI standard is not a law, its recommendations, including warning signage, training, and the
designation of a laser safety officer, may be mandatory under local regulations. It is the operator's
responsibility to ensure that the installation and operation of the Full Spectrum Desktop Laser System are
performed following applicable laws. Copies of ANSI Standard Z136.12000 are available from:
LASER INSTITUTE OF AMERICA 12424 RESEARCH PARKWAY, SUITE 125 ORLANDO, FL 32826 (407)

Assembling your Muse Galvo
Warning! The Muse Galvo has a weight that exceeds 50lbs . It is recommended to carry the product
with at least 2 people to avoid injury.
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
2. The laser head assembly will be inserted bottom up.Make
sure the wheels are lined up with the track.
3.When rail is reached, manually align the rail
opening and fasten them together until the
scanhead is secure.
5. Once the laser head assembly is on the rails secure it
in place using a screw.

1. Place on the edge of a table with long side
facing outward.
6.Once done you may flip the power switch for your Galvo.
If done properly the scan head will moved up into the home
position.

Connect Via Router (Recommended):
Connecting the Galvo to the router is the most reliable
way to establish a link to RE3.
1. The Galvo comes with an ethernet cable(see Fig.
18).
Fig. 18
2. Connect the cable to the ethernet ports on both
devices(see Fig. 19).
Fig. 19
Note: Ethernet port looks the same on all devices
Section IV. Connectivity
Connect to Wi-Fi:
1. Your machine should come with a device called a
dongle attached to the usb port. This device
enables your machine to connect to the wifi.
Make sure that it is there and connected.

2. Select the Network button on the top right of the
touch screen.
Fig. 21
3. Select wifi and look for your network. Select it
and enter password
Ethernet Connection
The Fiber Galvo software is browser-based, meaning no download is required. RetinaEngrave v3.0 (RE3) is
locally hosted on the machine’s internal computer so it will function even without an internet connection. Using any
computer, only an internet browser (such as Google Chrome) is needed to access RE3. The easiest method is to
connect the Ethernet Cable that came with your Galvo.
Connect Directly to Computer:
Connecting the Fiber Galvo and the computer should only be done if the previous two options are not
possible. The Galvo can can connect to the computer via ethernet cable.
Note: The location of the ethernet port varies on computer models.Some computer may not have an
ethernet connection and may need an ethernet adapter.
