Receiving and CNC Introduction:
Receiving the Machine:
Note: It is probable that your machine will be delivered by a third party. Before you unpack your new machine, you
will need to first inspect the packing, invoice, and shipping documents, supplied by the driver. Ensure that there is
no visible damage to the packing, or the machine. You need to do this prior to the driver leaving. All damage must
be noted on the delivery documents and signed by you and the delivery driver. You must then contact the seller,
Laguna Tools, within 24 hours. It is probable that you will find sawdust on your Smartshop II. Laguna endeavors to
test all machines prior to shipping.
Introduction to CNC Machines:
The CNC is designed to give you years of safe service. Read this Owner's Manual in its entirety before assembly or
use. The advantage of the CNC machine is that it can, in most cases, fully machine the complete job without it being
removed from the table so that you have finished parts of high accuracy that are totally repeatable. It can also
produce intricate carvings with the purchase of the relevant software. Nesting is also a valuable feature of CNC
machining that saves on waste and costs. It is possible to reduce the amount of different machines in the shop, as
the CNC will perform a multiple of functions and is a must for cabinet makers and serious woodworkers.
