3. Spindle Mounting: Install the 400W spindle into its designated clamp on the Z-axis. Ensure it is firmly secured. The machine includes a 65mm spindle clamp.
4. Зымдарды туташтыруу: Connect the stepper motors, limit switches, and spindle to the controller box according to the wiring diagram provided in the separate quick start guide.
5. Controller Box Placement: Position the controller box in a stable location near the machine.
6. Баштапкы кубаттоо: Connect the power supply to the controller box and then to a suitable power outlet. Do not connect the machine to power until all assembly steps are complete and verified.

4. Операция

This section outlines the basic operational procedures for your Masuter 3S CNC machine.

4.1 Controller Box

The newly designed controller box features shortcut buttons for common operations and a self-resetting E-stop button. Pressing the E-stop button will halt all machine movement and trigger an alarm in the software. It will pop up by itself, requiring no twisting to reset.

4.5 программалык камсыздоо

The Masuter 3S is based on GRBL, a fully open-source firmware. It is compatible with various CNC control software, including GRBL Control, LightBurn (for laser modules), and other G-code senders.

5. Техникалык тейлөө

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your CNC machine.

• Тазалоо: Regularly clean dust and debris from the machine, especially around the lead screws, linear rails, and motors. The controller box is designed to be dust-proof for easy cleaning.
• Майлоо: Apply a thin layer of appropriate lubricant to the linear rails and lead screws periodically to ensure smooth movement and prevent wear.
• Белдик текшерүү: Check the X and Y axis belts for tension and wear. Replace worn or stretched belts to maintain accuracy. High-quality replacement belts can improve performance.
• Spindle Care: Ensure the spindle collet is clean and free of debris. Always use the correct collet size for your bits.
• Электр байланыштары: Мезгил-мезгили менен бардык электр туташууларын бекемдигин жана эскирүү же бузулуу белгилерин текшерип туруңуз.
