For anyone with a 1500 x 1500 machine, I use these job size measurements in Vectrix Cut2dPro.
I set the job size to 1300 (X) x 1270 (Y). I manually set the Amana 45525 cutting tool to the spoilboard surface, then do a profile cut around the edge at 0.5 mm to get a gauge of where the cut will go up to and how much is being cut away. Once I've established things aren't too out of wack I do a pocket cut. If it's not hit all the surface I set the tool down by 0.25mm ( making it 0.75mm in C2DP) ) or another 0.5 if you think it's way out. Then recalculate in C2DP and send the g-code to the machine.
Make sure you put a new vaccum cleaner bag in your extractor!
This works really well for me as generally I'm cutting half 8ftx4ft sheets
For the longer Y drag chain on the 1500 x1500, I had to remove two of the links as it hit the left hand corner plate before the X arm had reached the end.
