Safety

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.
Stay behind the 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.
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.

Troubleshooting

If none of the control functions on the control panel appear to work, make sure the machine has been homed and the E-stop is released.
If the cutting tool height appears to be incorrect make sure the tool touch off has been performed for the tool in use.

Maintenance

General maintenance

The spoil board needs to be resurfaced as grooves are cut into the surface. Grooves will release a percentage of the table vacuum and increase the risk of the material moving during cutting.
There are many bearing surfaces located on the router that need to be lubricated. The router is equipped with a central lubrication system the technician will operate on a regular basis.
