5. Work station safety
To ensure security and productivity, read this manual before starting-up the equipment.
• This marking equipment is designed to function at a room temperature between 5 0C (41 0F) to 45 0C (113 0F)
(see: Technical specifications). The relative humidity level must be between 20 and 90% (without
condensation).
• Never disconnect the cable connecting the power supply to the marking gun when the power supply is switched
on.
• Never disconnect the battery when the machine is switched on.
• Grounding must be done according to the regulations in effect to ensure the safety of the personnel. The con-
nection to the single phase power supply is made with a standard, 3 pin plug with grounding. It must be equip-
ped with an adequately calibrated 30 mA differential cut-off and protection device.
• This marking equipment is not designed to operate in damp premises. This marking equipment is not designed
for use in rain.
• Never lubricate any elements of the stylus.
• Do not use this marking equipment in an explosive environment.
• During marking, do not place fingers or objects in the area reserved for stylus movement. Keep hands away
from the marking area. Disregard for this recommendation may result in the operator being lightly pinched by
the point of the stylus.
• Only use the touch screen with the finger (gloves may be worn) or the screen pen provided by Gravotech. To
prevent damage to the screen, avoid the use of pointed objects or of another stylus.
• Clean the screen with a soft dry cloth. To avoid scratching the screen, do not use liquids or abrasive materials.
• When connecting, press the connector(s) until you hear a click.
• Use the handles for carrying and handling the machine. Never lift the machine by the cord.
Gravotech will not be held responsible for injuries resulting from disregard for the above operating instructions or
other general safety rules applicable to the use of this equipment or resulting from misuse. Furthermore, disregard
for the instructions will void the warranty.
Instructions for use and warranty limitations
This equipment is designed to mark material using Technifor electromagnetic styli only. Any other use,
or the use of styli other than those provided by Technifor is not recommended. Technifor will not be held
responsible for the results.
When marking or doing test marking, the stylus must always hit a part.
If it strikes only air, these are the risks:
• mechanical deterioration of moving parts
• void of the manufacturer’s guarantee

BOperating instructions for the machine
1. Description of the machine
The XM700 is a numerically controlled micro-percussion marking machine. This machine works by moving the
stylus along the X and Y axes of a grid.
The control electronics and the screen are integrated. Together with the power unit, they form a compact and
portable assembly.
Communication interface:
• 7" colour touch screen: used to program and launch the marking files (3).
• marking start trigger: push button in the handle (4)
• On / Off switch (under the handle) (5)
The unit is controlled by a simple, user-friendly marking program.
The machine is powered either by a mains power supply adapter or by a portable battery attached to the belt.
Its light and ergonomic design makes it possible to take the machine to the parts to be marked, wherever they are
located.

2. Technical specifications
• fonts available:
- continuous action (font 0)
- dot by dot (font 1-3)
- size: from 0.5 mm (0.02 in) to 45 mm (1.772 in) with increments of 0.1 mm (5/1000 in)
- characters: those included in the basic multilingual diagram of the Unicode standard (ISO 10646)
• dates, counters, batch numbers, shift codes, logos...
3. Physical characteristics
• dimensions (L x w x h): 325 mm (12.795 in) x 211 mm (8.307 in) x 408 mm (16.063 in) (excluding side handle)
• weight: 5.5 kg (12.125 lb)
• marking area: 80 mm (3.15 in) x 30 mm (1.181 in)
If the room temperature is greater than 30 0C (86 0F) and if performing very deep
marking (stroke force > 80%), pause regularly in order to avoid overheating the
electronics and the screen or order a ventilator kit (ref. 73066).
Example:
Operating factors: 33% (marking: 10 s / pause: 15 s):
=> temperature = 30 0C (86 0F): restrict continuous operation to 50 minutes.
=> temperature = 45 0C (113 0F): restrict continuous operation to 35 minutes.
