1.3 Safety Information
The Creator Pro CNC machine is an electrical appliance and precision machine. Please read and
understand the entire owner’s manual before attempting assembly or operation. Read and
understand the warnings posted on the machine and in this manual. Failure to comply with all
warnings may cause serious personal injury or damage to the machine.
The Creator Pro CNC machine is designed and intended for use by properly trained and
experienced personnel only. Personnel who are not familiar with the correct and safe operation of
the Creator Pro I-24P should not operate the machine until properly trained.
The Creator Pro CNC machine is designed to cut wood, acrylics, wood-fiber composites, certain
plastics, and non-ferrous metals. Do not use this machine for other than its intended use.
1.3.1 Shop Environment
1. Verify the floor can bear the weight of the machine and workpieces.
2. Ensure the floor around the machine is clean and free of scrap material, oil, and grease.
3. Do not lean material against the gantry, guide rails, or table.
4. Support the weight of the dust hose attached to the dust shoe (optional) accessory to prevent
the weight of the hose from dislodging the dust shoe. Ensure that there is sufficient slack in
the dust collection hose to allow the spindle to cover the entire work area.
5. Position the Creator CNC machine away from overhead pipes and plumbing fixtures to
prevent condensation from dripping on to the spoil boards and control system components.
6. Locate the Creator CNC machine away from sinks, faucets, or other water supplies or
storage to prevent splash-out that can damage the spoil boards and control system
components.
7. Provide adequate room between the Creator CNC and other machines in the shop to reduce
the chance of accidental jarring when transporting lumber or other heavy materials through
the shop and while materials are being worked on other machines.
8. Verify there is adequate space between machines to allow for the possibility the workpiece
will extend over the end of the Creator CNC machine.
9. Store cutting tools in a dry location and prevent contact to preserve the cutting edge.
