This message will appear to ensure the Z-zero
plate is under the router bit. Double check the lo-
cation of the Z-zero plate and click OK. An alarm
sound will signify that the Z-axis will start moving
down in a couple of seconds. Place the Z-zero
plate under the bit and on top of the deck while
the Z-zero routine takes place.
The spindle/router will lower until the bit contacts the Z-zero plate. It
will then retract and repeat the process again.
Wait for the router bit to contact the Z-zero plate twice before re-
moving the Z-zero plate or the grounding clip.
After bit makes second contact, bit will retract to a position of
1/2” above the deck. The Z-axis is now zeroed to the top of the
MDF deck.
Unplug and remove Z-zero plate and clip from machine.
Press “OK” to exit the program.
Re-attach dust foot.
