The same as your Co2 laser does little to nothing to help line up your 3rd mirror. Also the Co2 laser does nothing to tell you where your beam should enter the lens head (most people aim for the center of the hole). As an optical engineer I can't express enough the importance of your beam hitting the center of the lens at exactly 90deg. It will obviously still work if not perfect but if you want better quality you will want perfect beam alignment.
