How to Set Up CNC Nomad 833

So you have just received the right to use the CNC machine, and were told some senior left you an instructable on how to do so? Or you have wondered upon this out of your last hope. This should set you on the right track to setting up your beast of a milling machine. "Brevity is the Soul of Wit" - Shakespeare

It might or might not be packed. But unpack it, if it is. Examine what you have unpacked (If you have unpacked anything) after all "an un-examined life is not worth living" - Plato

It attaches to the Y-axis plane controls, and protects the bit and the machine from milling itself or breaking the bit. You will further on put whatever it is you want to mill to this wooden board using double sided tape provided to you in the box, or order some here: https://shop.carbide3d.com/products/double-side-tape?variant=41237526598

It will come disassembled but you just push the two parts together. You should have drill bits by Nomad #101 and #102, pick one of these and attach them to the cutter using the images provided and the two wrenches also provided. If you have ever used a hand drill, the idea is the same when it comes to how far do you put in the drill bit. If you put in in too far you will limit your operating room, if not far enough it will snap.
