TIP

Safety Precautions and Warnings

BobsCNC Routers have a 110 v. Power Supply and use bits that spin at 30,000

rpm with cutting edges that are sharp and hazardous. The operator must

understand the potential hazards and is responsible to take appropriate

safety precautions before operating the Router.

•Only use extension cords rated for 20 amps plugged into a dedicated

outlet.

•Inspect the machine before every use for maintenance issues: loose

fasteners, belts, etc.

•Do not operate the machine with dull or damaged router bits.

•Always unplug machine after each use and when cleaning the router or

changing router bits.

•Remove rings, bracelets, watches, necklaces before using the machine.

•Wear snug fitting clothing and/or roll up long sleeves to prevent snagging.

•Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when operating

machine including safety glasses and hearing protection.

•Keep hands, hair, and clothing away from the moving parts of the

machine.

•Do not operate the machine when under the influence of alcohol or

prescription medications.

•Make certain the workpiece is clamped securely in place before starting

the machine.

•Never leave the machine running unattended.

•Children must be supervised by adults when operating the machine.

•Do not operate the machine in the presence of flammable materials.

•Keep floors clean, dry, and free of debris to eliminate slip and/or trip

hazards.

•Have a suitably rated fire extinguisher on hand when the machine is in

operation.

Getting Started

Required Tools:

To Assemble the Quantum CNC Kit

Metric Socket Set

#1, #2 and #3 Phillips Screw Drivers

Needle Nose Pliers

Set of Metric Allen Wrenches

Pliers

Utility Knife

Clear Nail Polish or Locktite™

Scissors

Blue Painter’s

Tape

To Operate the BobsCNC Quantum CNC Router, you need will need:

Computer with control software for GRBL.

Materials for Projects.

1/4” Shaft Router bits.

Recommended for the electronic setup include:

Multimeter to correctly connect the Power Supply and to set the

current for the Stepper Motors (a great tool for general electronic

trouble shooting).

Assembly Recommendations:

Use a large, flat, clean work surface for assembling your Quantum

Mini.

All Screws (unless noted) should be installed snug, then rotated 1-2

½ turns.

Apply LOCTITE™or clear fingernail polish to all M4 X 16 mm Machine

Screw that are used to secure plywood pieces. Machine Screws that

are secured with Lock Nuts do not need LOCTITE™.

Light sanding of the wood components may be performed if desired.

Painting or applying stain with a clear coat will provide extra

protection to the wood components.

Clean the rails with acetone to remove rust preventative and apply a

light coat of PTFE (Teflon®) lubricant.

We recommend using strips of 1-inch blue painters’ tape behind the

T-Slots to help hold the Nuts in place during assembly.

Lock Nuts are never used to secure components that have T-Slots.

They are only used to mount components where the Nut is not

held in a T-Slot.

CAUTION This kit contains numerous small

components that pose a choking risk for small

children and pets. Keep kit pieces in a secure

location out of the reach of small children and

pets.
