7. Using the key turn on the laser

8. Wait for the laser gantry to finish homing procedure and till it returns to previous origin.

   Gantry will move to x,y origin (top right corners), this will be a slow move, and then gantry moves fast back to the previous job's origin position.

9. Clear (if any) leftover material from the laser bed

   move the bed (bed moves down towards ground) or the gantry as needed using the remote or the control panel

If there exist large gap, laser will not focused on the material and your cut/engrave result will not be as expected
