X sxis not level

Post by Jarrahman »

Hello

I have a problem with my CNC Shark pro. When I set the extreme X axis to 0 (on the surface of the bench top) and then move it to the full +X axis travel there is a millimeter difference. It drops by 1 mm. This, of course, makes anything being carved a millimeter shallower than anything at the -X axis end.

I have looked in the instruction manual but there is nothing referring to it. All it needs an adjustment but I don't know which one.

Any suggestions please

Sorry but don't need a reply now. I have sorted it. I dropped the right side of the gantry and "Bobs your uncle" as we say over hear. I would recommend everyone with a CNC Shark Pro go over the entire machine and tighten every nut and bolt.

I must say that having fellow woodworkers like yourselves, the USA that is, as well as many other people from all over the world is a fantastic resource for myself and many others from remote places around the world.
