Declaration
z Although, the routing machine system is produced by CNCDIY Routing Machine System, it
cannot be called a real commercial product. The user must require having relative knowledge
about mechatronics. All matters concerning the machinery, electronics, computer equipment,
are likely due to improper use or a virus, software compatibility reasons, result in failure, this
failure may cause a certain degree of risk and economic losses. CNCDIY Routing Machine
System does not bear the direct and indirect losses corresponding responsibilities.
z Any routing machine you purchased from CNCDIY Routing Machine System is only paid
for the price of the machine and relative device itself only, does not included any software
and software training costs. You can follow this "User’s Manual" learning how to operate or
through the network under the guidance from our staff. Each routing machine system is
operation normally after a standard test produce to identify the three-axis can be controlled
and able to run imported tool path properly. This recognition of our work is completed. All
the software training is not in our capacity. CNCDIY Routing Machine System is a vast
CNC-DIY enthusiast platform, we are very happy in our own knowledge, ability and time to
give novices within reach of as much as possible help, but please do not use these to help and
look at the FAQ to make is that we have obligations.

Reminder
z The machine uses a parallel interface and control computer connected through the parallel
port control software MACH3 controlled carving machine to run the various axes in
accordance with instructions, make sure you prepare for the routing machine control
computer has a parallel port, and the required work in EPP parallel port mode, any other
mode may result in engraving machine cannot operate normally, the EPP mode is set to be
carried out in the computer motherboard BIOS, all manufacturers to set methods vary, please
refer to the instructions to set up your computer. Part of the desktop computer does not have
built-in parallel port, users can be purchased parallel port PCI expansion card slot to use. But
any commercially available USB-parallel port adapter does not allow normal operation of the
machine
z Controlling the computer should be dedicated and, if possible do not install other
applications software; do not recommend the use of laptop computers to control the
engraving machine, part of the notebook computer's battery-saving chip may interfere with
the pulse signal, some parallel port voltage is low, may lead to pulse signal is lost the use of
engraving machine could not be properly controlled.
Warning
z The machine system is to rely on related software control, the need for the right software
settings in order to function properly, in the absence of fully recognized under the temerity to
set the correct test machine loaded knife can be dangerous or permanent damage to
machinery. During the software installation and settings, do not open the control box power
supply, in order to avoid malfunction causing damage.
z Do not at any time the power electronic control box connected to the case, pulling the plug
inserted above the line terminal; spindle power each time you open the speed control knob
must be transferred before the low-end office and then start-up; both spindle switch or driver
switches repetition interval of the switch at least once every 30 seconds or more; not pay
attention to the above questions is likely to cause some damage control circuits.
z As the use of the AC110V or AC220V voltage, power state, do not open the electronic
control cover, do not touch the spindle motor terminals, operation of the spindle motor driven
high-speed rotary cutting tool, do not touch, and a closer look at sculpture, the working must
be worn goggles or protective masks! The operator must wear a protective mask and a
goggle.

Chapter 3 Hardware Installation
3-1 Installation Precaution
The CNC Routing Machine system contains numerous delicate electronic circuits and
components which can become damaged. Prior to installation, carefully read the user’s manual
and follow these procedures:
z When connecting hardware components to the connectors of the Control system, make sure
they are connected tightly and securely.
z Before using the product, please verify that all cables and power connectors of your
hardware components are connected
z Before unplugging the power, make sure the power supply voltage has been set according to
the local voltage standard.
z Do not place the machine system on an uneven surface.
z Do not place the machine system in a high-temperature environment.
z Turning on the control system power during the installation process can lead to damage to
system components as well as physical harm to the user.
z If you are uncertain about any installation steps or have a problem related to the use of the
product, please consult a certified computer technician.
z The main material of the routing machine is used aluminum alloy, cannot be used due to
any inadvertently fall or collision to damage the machine. Please placed the routing
machine system in a firm, stable, level of desktop, thin desktop will result in a greater
resonance in the noise during the machine running.
z Electric control box is installed well with a switching power supply, a stepper drive
controller and a spindle power driver. Please place it in the level of ventilation. Electric
control box cannot have electromagnetic interference within around 10 meters. Please also
care about wrestling and fear flows effect!
z Remember to tidy up the wiring harness, messy take place. It is likely to impede the normal
movement of the routing machine. Please consider the stroke area for the moving gantry
and any sliding part with sufficient margin of the wiring harness.

The spindle is a used of ELECTROCRAFT E240 motor installed an ER11 chuck and a Plastic
Cooling Fan. The original is a DC servo motor, it is a waste and the encoder has been damaged.
This is a good choice and environmentally friendly for using the small CNC.
The ER 11 chuck is using with tooling diameter of 3.175mm. It can reduce the radial runout and
increasing the routing Precision to 0.03mm. The ER 11 chuck is included two handles for
locking the cutting tools.

Processing
Platform
Frame Level
Dial Test

Calliper
The Processing platform is an important for
assembly. A Processing platform can make
sure the machine table is level.
1. The best is metal Processing platform.
2. Any level plate or platform can also be
used such as metal plate /table or wood plate
/table.
The frame level use to measure the working
table, Horizontal and vertical parts
Measures displacement at an angle of a lever
or plunger perpendicular to the axis of the
indicator. A regular dial indicator measures
linear displacement along that axis.
Measure the distance between two
symmetrically opposing sides.
Height Gauge
Square ruler
Hexagon keys
Screwdriver
Measure vertical distances. The pointer is
sharpened to allow it to act as a scriber and
assist in marking out work pieces.
To measure the right angle when you
assembling the Gantry Frame Part and the
Base Part.
The Metric Hexagon keys are the main
assembly tooling! The long armtypeofthe
Hexagon keys is most useful and save your
energy! The sizes are from 1.5 to 10.
The flat and crosshead types of screwdrivers
are needed. The electric screwdriver is highly
recommended!
