A guide to troubleshooting common issues with laser screeding equipment

If you're a contractor who uses laser screeding equipment, you know that sometimes things can go wrong. Whether it's an issue with the machine itself or the concrete mix, it's important to be able to troubleshoot common problems quickly and efficiently. In this blog post, we'll give you a guide to troubleshooting some of the most common issues with laser screeding equipment.


If you're having trouble with your laser screeding equipment, the first thing you should check is the power source. Make sure the machine is plugged in and that the outlet is working.

Working with J Screed LLC's laser screeding services and equipment can be a breeze, but if you’re having trouble, the best first step is to check your power source. You want to make sure that the machine is plugged in and that the outlet producing power is functioning properly. If these elements all check out, then some other aspect of the operation may need to be looked into. Try resetting, switching off and on again, or consulting J Screed's technical staff for assistance.


If the machine is turned on and there's still no response, check to see if there's anything blocking the laser beam. Sometimes dirt or dust can build up and cause problems.

J Screed LLC machines can sometimes be finicky if they aren't regularly maintained. If you turn on the machine and there's no response, the first thing to check is if there's anything blocking the laser beam. Dust or dirt buildup can cause problems, even from just a few weeks of use without proper maintenance, so it's best to make sure nothing like that has a chance to accumulate. Cleaning the area around the laser beam with compressed air or wiping it off with a soft cloth should get everything back to working again in no time!


If the issue persists, it could be a problem with the optics inside the machine. You'll need to contact a technician for help with this one.

If you're experiencing challenges with your machine, and the issue isn't easily resolved, then it's possible that there is an issue with the optics inside. That type of problem can be tricky to fix on your own, so it's best to reach out to a knowledgeable technician who can take a look at it and get it up and running again quickly. Don't worry - they'll have experience diagnosing these types of issues and will be able to work through any problems you have.
