I'm just shooting in the dark here. But it sounds to me like some of the probe wires might be shorted out causing the machine to think the probe is installed in the spindle. You might try and inspect...

Jeremy - You should be able to re-wire it without any issue. Just to be sure I'm looking through the install manual and see a few things. The Torq-Cut's were designed around 220V, it was just an...
Steve I'm glad to hear our experience has been helpful. For $200 I would be all over getting it sand blasted! So long as you prime/paint it after I can't imagine sand blasting doing anything but...
First off - sorry for not getting back earlier. Unfortunately, I don't have any good pictures of how it was chained down since the truck driver did it while another of our guy assisted. Here's the...
I'll elaborate a bit more on what Josh said.
First, to answer your question - the first time through might take a little time, but it's not complicated if you're prepared. Having done it, I feel...
Here are screenshots of our BIOS settings on our TorqCut 22 with an Intel 486. As far as I checked most of our settings appear to be the same but have a look for yourself. Since you're running a...
Thanks zane. And sorry for my delay in getting back to you. We are right in the middle of our robotics season at the moment so things are pretty crazy! The machine has been serving us VERY well. At...
Thanks Jon - it was certainly a large undertaking but we are very happy with how it turned out. These machines may be old, but as you said they are tough and definitely still have plenty of life left...

Jim said that he was very impressed after he was done with the work. As you'll see from the sheets above, we had excellent squareness, almost no backlash, and little/no runout (more on this later),...
Having done the base coats on the enclosure and loose parts, we prepared to do some painting on the rest of the machine that we couldn't move. We decided that we would make all of the key...
My name's Paul and I'm a mentor for the Lee's Summit North High School FIRST Robotics Competition team, The Broncobots, out of Lee's Summit, Missouri. To learn more about the team, check out the...
Update: Right after posting this I had a breakthrough. Installed a 32-bit version of Windows and now it appears I can connect to the MX4660!
It's been awhile since I've had a 32/64bit related...
Hello all!
My name's Paul - I'm a mentor for a FIRST Robotics team in the Kansas City Missouri area. Currently we are working on expanding our capabilities by building a CNC router using the...
