Presentation
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the IS900IQ+ machine. Years of testing and renements have made this unit the ultimate
engraving and cutting system.
Thanks to its innovative design with :
- the IQ+ (Intelligence Quotient +) concept, which offers, inter alia, signicantly improved displacement
speeds and a faster communication machine/PC.
- the RDFfunction (Prole Follow-up) which once activated calculates and adjusts automatically the position
of the tool holder for the engraving of plates which are not plane,
- an integrated electronics box easily interchangeable,
and with its performance results (speed, power and engraving areas), the IS900IQ+ machine combines exibility and
full featured performance without sacricing simplicity, ease of use, or ease of maintenance.
Using advanced engineering and design features, the IS900IQ+ machine is truly one-of-a-kind.
Tobeginwith,wehighlyrecommendthatthisentiremanualbereadbeforeattempting

• If the machine is not to be used for a long period, unplug the electricity supply and cover the machine (packaging,
cover, lid...)
• Do not move the engraving head by hand unless mechanical block of the machine as described in the paragraph "Me-
chanical block" of this manual's "Installing" chapter.
• Do not spill any liquids onto the machine (drinks, cleaning fluids…) unless when recommended by
GRAVOTECH MARKING SAS (example : lubrication).
• Do not place any object on the machine other than that to be engraved.
• The machine should never be used with anything other than Gravograph accessories and tools.
• Never hold the material to be engraved in your hands. Only use the GRAVOGRAPH clamping systems designed for your
machine.
• Make sure that the material is well clamped before starting to engrave.
• During engraving, do not use this machine without a nose (depth regulating nose or vacuum nose) ou carter d'aspiration
muni d'une brosse (broche H.F.) in order to avoid projections of swarf.
• Do not take the engraving material out of the machine during engraving.
• If the engraving must be stopped, use the function key provided for this purpose on the keyboard of the machine.
