* Use 14mm wrenches (in the black bag) to tighten the collet. You don't need to over-tighten the collet - hand tighten, not gorilla tighten.

===Using Fusion 360===
 +
 +
You will need to install the Easel post processor in order to get usable GCode from Fusion 360 to the Shapeoko. The post processor is available here:

 +
 +
When using Universal GCode Sender, you will get a "HOLD" error because it leads with a tool change (M6). The Shapeoko does not support a tool change command, and so simply hitting the "Play" button again will resume operation.

* If the spindle jams on something and then won't restart, check the fuse in the spindle controller (on the back of the cabinet). There may be spares in the drawer under the machine. It is a 5x20mm glass fuse, should be 6A but we've been using 5A because Home Depot stocks them.
