Does our forum have a tool crib? You know, borrow a tool, use it then turn it back in.
I have about .035” back lash in my X travel. The Y is about .007”
The manual says to loosen large ring, tighten small inner ring to desired backlash (.005-.007 is the spec) then tighten the large outer ring.
The problem is access, there isn’t any. I may take the table off to do this.
I contacted Sharp Industries, they want $766 for the tool (see pic)
After thinking about this, I may be able to remove the left side handle and support, after moving the table as far to the right as possible.
Maybe I can get a tool in there??
Note: This is not like a BP. It’s a much heavier 3hp clone and it weighs 3,300.
( Maybe I could make one?)
