K40 Basic 40W troubleshooting from the Monport laser FAQ.

Problem

The machine has no air assist or cuts with heavy flames.

Solution

Add or verify air assist. The K40 Basic often needs an upgraded air assist nozzle and pump. Better airflow reduces charring, protects the lens, and lowers fire risk.
