Outside machine limits
Hi, I am having trouble starting a job. After setting work zero I am getting 'outside machine limits' error. Work area is X 325mm, Y 525mm and Z 57mm. The workpiece is X 238mm, Y 480mm and Z 21mm . Safe Z is set to 3 mm. Try as I might I cannot get the file to run. I tried a file with the same settings and material size and all worked. I am baffled! Any help would be gratefully received, this job is for a birthday present tomorrow.

Re: Outside machine limits
if the file is ove 2MB then put it on a site like drive.google.com or dropbox.com, and then share the link to the file here.I have tried attaching the CRV file but having no luck...

Re: Outside machine limits
Check for offsets in the job and any stray little vectors that are outside of the area but might be included in the toolpath.
