Overview
Touchscreen: Origin’s 5 inch multi-touch display
controls Origin’s many features.
SM1 Spindle: Origin is equipped with a powerful
720-Watt motor. It features variable speed control
and on-board electronics to deliver soft start,
thermal and overload protection, and constant
speed under load.
Dust Port: Origin is intended to be used with a
dust extraction system. Origin’s dust port accepts
many common vacuum hose sizes, or you may
use the hose that’s included with Origin.
Spindle Switch: You’re in control. For your
safety, Origin’s SM1 Spindle will never turn on
automatically. Use the spindle switch to turn on
the spindle when you’re ready to start cutting.
Spindle Mount: The SM1 Spindle is designed to
be removable for safe and easy router bit
changes. After loosening the spindle mount bolt,
simply remove or insert the SM1 Spindle.
Handles: Always rmly grasp both handles when
operating Origin. The buttons on each handle
map to the functions shown on the screen.

Overview
Speed Control: The SM1 Spindle has adjustable
speed from 10 000 to 26 000 RPM, with the lowest
speed mapped to 1 on the dial, and the highest
speed mapped to 6. Use this dial to adjust the
spindle rotation speed. For a list of recommended
cut speeds for various materials and applications,
visit support.shapertools.com.
Z-Axis: Origin’s Z-Axis is responsible for plunging
and retracting the SM1 Spindle.
Collet Lock: Press the collet lock and use the
included 19mm wrench to change router bits in
the SM1 Spindle.
Back Handle: On the go? Carry Origin using the
back handle.
Camera: Origin uses a computer vision system
to track its location on your workpiece. Keep the
camera unobstructed and the lens cover glass
clean to ensure the best cutting experience.
USB Port: No network? No problem. If your Origin
is not in range of a Wi-Fi network, you can also
transfer design les using a USB ash drive.

2. Gently slide the spindle mount and spindle up.
3. Remove the red spindle lock by tilting it up
and pulling it forward.
Retain the shaft lock and spindle lock for

Basics
IMPORTANT: Always unplug the SM1 Spindle from
Origin before removing the spindle from the
spindle mount.
To enable unobstructed access to change the
router bit, the SM1 Spindle must be removed
from Origin. Use the included 4mm T-handle hex
wrench to loosen the spindle mount bolt. Once
loosened, lift the spindle to remove it.
To reinstall the spindle, slide it into the spindle
mount with the ON/OFF switch facing towards
you. A groove on the back of the spindle will only
allow it to be inserted in the correct orientation,
with the cable exiting on the left side. Gently
reinsert the spindle.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to tighten the spindle mount
bolt after fully inserting the spindle into the
spindle mount.
Finally, ensure the switch is in the “OFF” position
and plug the spindle cable back into the side
of Origin.
Removing and Installing the SM1 Spindle

8
Basics
To change router bits, rst unplug the SM1 Spindle
from Origin and remove it from the spindle
mount, as described earlier. Press the collet lock
while loosening or tightening the collet locking
nut with the included 19mm wrench. Do not
tighten the collet locking nut until a router bit is
inserted. To install a different collet, fully unscrew
the previous collet, and screw the new collet on
by hand.
WARNING: Maximum allowable cutter diameter is
1 inch (25 mm).
Powering Origin
Plug Origin into a grounded wall outlet, either
directly, or through a properly rated extension
cord, surge protector, or power strip.
WARNING: Do not plug Origin into the switched
outlet available on some dust extractors.
Unlike most power tools, Origin has an internal
computer, making these outlets unsuitable for
Origin.
Changing the Router Bit

shapertools.com 9
Basics
Safety rst. Always use eye and ear protection
when operating Origin. Always keep the nger
guard installed when the spindle is plugged in - it
snaps into place magnetically. Keep ngers and
other body parts away from the collet and the
router bit. Operate Origin with two hands.
Safely Using Origin
Use appropriate extension cords. Only use
undamaged extension cords that match Origin’s
plug. Extension cords should have an adequate
voltage and current rating that meets or exceeds
the electrical specications listed on the
product label.
Always make sure that the spindle motor
connector is securely plugged into the side of
Origin while operating.
Unplug Origin’s plug from the power receptacle
in the wall to completely remove power supplied
to the tool. The spindle power switch removes
power supplied to the spindle only. The OFF
switch position does not remove power supplied
to the non-spindle portions of Origin.
Origin is a class I tool with double insulation
and/or reinforced insulation throughout.
Origin includes a earthing connection used for
functional grounding purposes.

10
Basics
When setting up your workpiece, use clamps,
adhesives, or other practical means to secure
the workpiece to a stable work table. It is
recommended to use a spoil board underneath
your material when doing a through-cut.
Workpieces can be any size, so long as they are
xtured safely.
Origin is designed for cutting wood, plastic,
soft metals, and similar materials. Always use a
cutting bit that is appropriate for the task, and
that is designed to handle the spindle’s max
speed. The SM1 spindle on Origin can operate
between 10,000 RPM and 26,000 RPM.
Routing depth is set via the integrated
touchscreen. Do not attempt to adjust the
routing depth by lifting the whole tool. Always
install the spindle fully into the tool, and install
the nger guard by snapping it on magnetically.
If the spindle is stalled due to excess load it will
remain off until the spindle is turned off and
on again. Turn the spindle off and remove the
obstruction before turning the spindle on again.
Origin’s Power cord is not user-replaceable. If
Origin’s power cord is damaged, contact Shaper
customer support.

Basics
Only use Shaper-recommended accessories with
Origin.
Always Use Dust Extraction with Origin. Connect
a dust extractor hose to Origin’s dust port.
Keep Origin’s mechanisms clean. Wearing suitable
eye protection, use a vacuum to remove debris
from Origin’s mechanisms.
Periodically open chip tray to remove debris.
Adhere workpiece elements that may come
loose during cutting. When cutting items out of
workpiece materials, use PSA (Pressure Sensitive
Adhesive) or alternative methods to hold
elements down to your workbench and/or spoil
board. This will prevent items from coming loose
when cutting is complete.
Only use router bits with a shank size that
matches the collet installed in Origin’s spindle
(i.e. use 6mm shank bits with a 6mm collet,
and 1/4” shank bits with a 1/4” collet). Only use
collets available from Shaper. Cutter diameter
can exceed shank diameter, but the MAXIMUM
ALLOWABLE CUTTER DIAMETER is 1” (25mm).

Basics
Check work area for items added after
initial scan. Origin’s on-screen images are
reconstructions based on previous scans. They
may not show items on your workpiece that were
placed there after a scan. Always check your work
area for potential obstacles immediately before
routing.
Only operate Origin with the SM1 Spindle
provided by Shaper. Use with any other router
spindle will cause damage and may result in a
risk of electric shock.
Do not forcibly move the Z-Axis carriage up
and down. Doing so may cause damage to
Origin’s electronics.
Do not forcibly move the spindle mount from
side to side. Doing so may cause damage to
Origin’s electronics.
Cut at an appropriate depth per pass. Origin can
easily and consistently do multiple passes on
your design at increasing depths. Do not attempt
to cut deeper in one pass than Origin’s movement
stage or spindle can handle. If Origin sounds
like it is audibly struggling, reduce the depth of
your cut, change your material or router bit, or
adjust spindle speed. Visit support.shapertools.
com for recommendations on how to cut various
materials.
Cut at an appropriate feed rate. If Origin’s
correction range is unable to keep up with your
feed rate, move Origin slower, reduce the depth
of cut, change your router bit, and/or adjust the
spindle speed. Visit support.shapertools.com for
recommendations on appropriate feed rates for
various materials.
