Shapeoko PRO
ASSEMBLY GUIDE

[email protected] 102/05/2021 Version 1.0
Welcome and Congratulations
Stronger. Faster. Beefier. The Shapeoko Pro is an incredibly powerful CNC machine purpose-built for rigidity
and accuracy. An upgraded controller, integrated tool-oset probe, inductive homing switches, and multiple
built-in workholding options will save you time and increase your productivity and workflow eciency.
In this guide we will walk you step-by-step through the assembly of your ShapeokoPro. Precision-machined
parts, pre-assembled components, and self-contained packaging mean assembling your ShapeokoPro is
quick and easy. You’ll be up and machining in no time.
ShapeokoPro Assembly Video
Watch the ShapeokoPro Assembly Overview video at: youtu.be/krwt3C9aSTY.
Power Tools
The use of power tools is not recommended for assembly. Use hand tools only.
Finger-Tight Only
Several steps rely on non-tightened fasteners. Do not tighten fasteners beyond finger-tight until instructed
to do so.
Directional References
In this guide, any reference to direction or placement, such as front, back, left, right, inside, and outside, are
given from the perspective of one standing in front of and facing the machine. This is true, even when the
figure is shown from the rear of the machine.
Notes Used in This Guide
In this guide, you will find information that we’ve called out for you to pay particular attention to. We use
three types of call-outs: Warnings, Notes, and Pro Tips.
Stepper Motors
Your ShapeokoPro gantry is powered by NEMA 23 stepper motors. When the power is o, moving the
motors by hand will cause them to generate electricity.
WARNING: When moving the gantry by hand, go slowly. The power generated by the stepper motors will
feel like bumps. If the lights on the controller are lighting up, it’s very important to slow down because you
are pushing electricity back through the board. Too much back flow could damage the controller.
Firmware
The ShapeokoPro controller ships with GRBL 1.1 firmware, which must be used with Carbide Motion 5. This
document supersedes any information you may find regarding firmware and software on the Carbide 3D
website.
Glossary of Terms
See the Glossary of Terms at the end of this guide for common CNC terms and definitions.

Important Safety Instructions
The ShapeokoPro is a machine tool and requires the same caution that should be exercised with any
power tool.
Eye Protection
Always wear safety glasses or goggles which are suitably impact-resistant.
Hearing Protection
Always wear earplugs or ear mus. For long jobs, it may be desirable to wear both. Hearing damage is
cumulative and irreversible, so one should always err on the side of caution.
Respiratory Protection
Always wear a filter or respiratory mask suitable for the type of dust generated by the material being cut. If
necessary, arrange for dust collection and proper ventilation.
Clothing, Hair, and Jewelry
Always ensure that clothing, hair, and jewelry cannot become caught in the machine. Always wear
appropriate clothing; long-sleeved shirts, pants, and suitable footwear are recommended. When metal-
working, gloves and an apron are also recommended.
Machine Safety
Never reach into the machine’s working envelope while it is running. Always shut o and unplug the router
to perform tool changes, adjustments, and maintenance. Never leave the machine running unattended.
Always inform someone before operating the machine and check in with them after successfully
completing work. Never allow children to use the ShapeokoPro unsupervised.
Fire Prevention
Consider the possibility of a fire caused by friction from the router and take suitable fire prevention
precautions (e.g. having a fire extinguisher handy and other suitable precautions).
Outlet Requirements
Plug the router into an outlet that has a dedicated on/o switch. Be sure this is accessible while the
machine is running, in case you should need to shut o the ShapeokoPro immediately.
End Mill Safety
Use care when handling end mills—both to avoid being cut and to avoid damaging them. Handling end
mills with suitable gloves, or using a cloth to avoid contaminating them, is recommended. Inspect end mills
carefully before each use, and ensure that they are securely held by the collet.
Debris Disposal
Recycle or safely dispose of milling debris and dust, keeping in mind flammability, (potential) spontaneous
combustion, and chemical considerations. Even natural materials can have disposal implications. For
example, walnut wood dust is allelopathic (it inhibits plant growth), an irritant to the skin and respiratory
tract, and potentially poisonous to some animals. All of these possible disposal implications are in addition
to the spontaneous combustion hazard posed by all types of sawdust.

Inventory
The packaging for your ShapeokoPro was carefully designed to facilitate the easiest assembly possible.
Your Shapeoko Pro arrives in two shipping boxes: box 1 contains everything you will need to complete
steps 1–4, including your assembly tool kit*, and box 2 contains everything you will need for steps 5–9. The
individual boxes in the shipping packages are self-contained steps allowing you to focus on one step at a
time. Therefore, it’s best to resist the urge to open all of the boxes at once.
*A pair of flush-cut pliers or scissors and a tape measure may also be helpful during assembly.
PRO TIP: Your ShapeokoPro kit has been carefully packaged by hand. If you find that something is
missing or damaged, contact us at [email protected] and we’ll ship it to you ASAP.
