Using Your Glowforge Pro
Be sure to review Laser Safety before operating your Glowforge Pro.
Moving material through the passthrough slot
● Your material must move from front to back.
● If your material is long enough to stick out either
end, make sure that you support it so that it the
part inside your Glowforge stays flat on the crumb
tray.
● If you've made a lot of cuts, it can help to open
the lid and remove the pieces before you slide
your material along. (A little tape can work
wonders here to help you extract little pieces that
are hard to pick up otherwise.)
● When you're moving your material, It's ok to pull it
from the back, and you can pull hard if you need to!
● As you slide your material, you may need to adjust your supports -- make sure that your
material continues to lie flat on the crumb tray.
Cleaning, Service & Moving

Always turn your Glowforge off before cleaning
Floor and crumb tray
Remove leftover cutting and engraving bits from the floor and the crumb tray whenever there is
a buildup. Bits on the tray can prop your material up in the air, and a buildup of cutting and
engraving bits can create a fire hazard.
1. To remove the crumb tray, lift the lid, then swing down the front door. Lift the crumb tray
slightly and slide it towards you. Be careful not to tilt the crumb tray up, or it will knock
into the printer head and rails.
