• ALWAYS turn off the laser before installing or removing the accessory, otherwise you will fry the laser's motherboard and make many people very unhappy
• Rotate your artwork 90 degrees - the rotary accessory replaces linear Y axis (vertical) movement with rotation
• Keep your artwork near the top of the page, otherwise the accessory will rotate before starting
• The rotary accessory for the Helix has a set of small wheels that you can use for objects with large bases
• Watch out for handles and other things that can interfere with rotation
• If you're trying to engrave circles on tapered glasses, they will likely come out skewed. You can either try to adjust your image to counteract the skew, or you can make a custom holder for your glass such that both ends are the same diameter.
