 Installation and Service Guide

   Installation for CanCam C2-510 ATC CNC router machine


















Tools Required:

Teflon tape

Phillips screwdriver

Flathead screwdriver


Components Required:

(2) Becker exhaust muffler

(3) 2-1/2 inch threaded pipes

(2) 4-inch hose clamps

(1) 90deg 2-1/2 inch pipe (OPTIONAL)

(1) 2-1/2 inch vacuum hose

(1) Becker dust filter

(1) Vacuum inlet fitting (provided with C2-510ATC CNC machine)


  1. Mount the machine in a well‑ventilated environment

  • Place on a flat, rigid surface with clear airflow around the fan and shrouds

  • Install and level vibration feet so the unit does not rock




  1. Install the mufflers on the exhaust towers

  • Apply PTFE tape to the exhaust threads

  • Thread mufflers on by hand, then snug with a wrench while supporting the tower

  • Orient vertically so condensate can drain and nothing contacts guards




















  1. Install the three pipes and 90° bend for the Becker dust filter on the top of the pump

  • Dry‑fit the three pipes and the 90° bend to confirm alignment and filter location

  • Apply thread sealant to each joint and assemble hand‑tight, then wrench‑snug

  • Mount the dust filter so the bowl is horizontal and accessible. 












































  1. Install the 2.5-inch vacuum hose from the dust filter to the C2-510 ATC CNC router 

  • Assemble the vacuum inlet that is provided with the C2-510 ATC CNC router as such

  • Route the hose from the filter outlet to the router vacuum manifold without kinks

  • Slide a clamp on each end, push the hose fully onto the fittings, and tighten the clamps

  • Add supports so the filter is not carrying pipe weight
