The shorty quick disconnect mount is now ready to be used. See video below for putting it on the X-carve DeWalt mount.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

SHORTY MOUNT

First, remove the four screws on the back of the shroud case that attach the laser and heatsink to the case (right picture).

ALL SHROUD LASERS

The Jtech driver gets mounted near your CNC controller. Run the power cable/extension, laser PWM extension cable, and fan extension cables along or in your drag chain to just behind the carriage.

(Use the screws only in this step, not the spacers or lock nuts)

Here are the 2 items you need to purchase from Jtechphotonics.com

Now line up the two screws with the slots on the shorty mount and put them thru.

Now push the spacers onto the two screws and into the slots on the back of the shorty mount. then tight the M3 lock nuts after carefully centering the laser.

Next, remove the two M3 screws on the back wall of the shroud case. Leave the nuts in.

Now push the spacers onto the two screws and into the slots on the back of the shorty mount. then tight the M3 lock nuts after carefully centering the laser.

2.Use 2 clamps with rubber pads across the 2 spots shown. Make sure to center the pressure from front to back. You can apply a decent amount of pressure and you may hear an audible CLICK when tightening, but not always. Just make sure they are seated all the way. The brackets do NOT hit the side mount and one is farther away than the other. that is by design and is how it is centered on the Dewalt. The brackets only fit one way but to avoid glue going everywhere, note the positions in the picture below based of the indent in the center rib.

Then, reassemble the laser and heatsink back into the case.

This shows the hardware assembled in the correct orientation (not showing the stock M3 nut)

Install the two included long M3 screws in place of the stock ones. Tighten.

1. Put enough glue in the pocket to cover the entire bottom. when you press it on to the mount, you want it to have enough to come up all the surfaces, but not necessarily overflow everywhere.

Next, glue the left and right brackets on to the Designs By Phil Laser Mount. Use a semi slow curing glue or epoxy to ensure the brackets are fully seated before the glue starts to set. a 30 second superglue may be too quick. I test fit every mount that leaves my shop. 

Next, remove the two M3 screws on the back wall of the shroud case. Leave the nuts in.
