To get started you will need to get a .DXF file from Solidworks or another program.  The .DXF file will need to be imported into VCarve Pro software. VCarve is used to create the G-code used by the router. You will select the type of cuts and tooling inside the software. Most cutting jobs can be done using a 1/4" cutter. A good rule of thumb is to not exceed the diameter of the tool in depth per pass. In foam or soft materials you can cut deeper per pass. The large switch near the middle of cabinet is the main power.  There is a key located on the control panel that also needs to be turned on in order for the PC to boot.  On power up of the machine make sure the table is clear before homing.  The machine will move to the corner closest the control panel.  Always keep your body outside the safety line while the machine is moving.
