About This Manual
This Manual is designed to provide you with information about your Multi Axis Engraver (known as MAX), beginning
with unpacking the machine and continuing through installation and lifetime machine maintenance. This manual does not
attempt to teach you how to engrave, how to use a computer or how to use your engraving software. Some previous
knowledge of engraving terms and the engraving process is assumed. For information on the Vision Engraving
Software or the Vision Pro Engraving Software, see the software manuals that came with them. For more
information on your individual computer system, see your computer’s user manual or contact your computer distributor.
Safety
Safety Precautions for the MAX Engraver.
Keep hands clear of the bottom of the spindle, the motor belt and the spindle pulley during operation.
Always stop the machine before making any adjustments.
Do not operate the machine with the covers removed.
Wear safety glasses when cutting any materials that emit chips.
Use extreme caution when inserting or removing cutters.
Before any servicing, disconnect the power cord to the controller and the table cables.
To avoid electric shock or equipment damage, ensure that the control unit is connected to the appropriate electrical
source as noted in the installation procedures.
Never operate the equipment with damaged or frayed power cords, loose connections or exposed extension cords
where someone can step on the cord and create a tripping hazard.
Be sure to hold the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the controller from an electrical socket or power source.
