=== Air assist ===
Air assist is used for vector cutting to have nice traces and avoid your material to burn. However some people like to have it disabled for raster jobs. The best is to use the pressure regulator on the left of the machine to put it on/off. Don't forget to put it off when you've finished and you don't need it while doing your settings, that's just making our air compressor work too much.
If you hear a hiss behind the machine, it's that the valve is closed and that ''Air assist will not work'''… You have to stop the job and then:
* Hit '''config (2)'''
* Left key until "Air assist vector" put On with '''Up''' key (You shouldn't have to put Off here as you just have to put the compressor off if you really need that)
* Left key until "Air assist raster" put On with '''Up''' key.
You should not have to touch these settings, especially because it confuses the users and it can make them destroy their material or cause fire. Default settings should be On and On for both.
