There are multiple hazards you need to be aware of when using the CNC router. 
 +
* The tooling is very sharp and spins at over 18,000 RPM. Keep your body parts away from the cutter and spindle. You need fingers for the ring you will get by spring.   
 +
* Stay behind the yellow/black safety line when operating the router. The router is very large and will not stop if you get in its way. 
 +
* Materials need to be securely fastened to the table by vacuum or mechanical means.
 +
** This includes material that could be made loose during the cutting process. Use tabs to secure such material.
 +
* Never attempt to cut a hole the same diameter as the cuter with a down cut force cutter.  This will compress the chips and can create a fire due to the air draw of the vacuum table.
 +
* Always wear ear protection when operating the CNC router.

When you have finished, park the cutting tool back into the storage rack at the end of the table. You will need to remove any material on the table and use the vacuum to clean off any leftover dust and chips.  You can use the dust collector or portable vacuum.  Make sure to disconnect the pneumatic air line and power down the machine with the spindle located off of the table.  This will prevent any leaking oil from dripping on the table.
