I just recently picked up a Conquest 700, from a knife making company which had bought the machine new. i bought it knowing it has an issue with the ATC, and the price reflected that.

The issue as they described it is that after a tool change the arm would return home then as soon as it returned home it would kick out a few degrees and alarm out.

I haven't taken delivery of the machine yet, I am just try to get a head start on finding the problem

hopefully find someone that knows these machines that might be able to point me in the right way
would also like to hear any other thoughts on this machine from people that have experience with them good or bad

issue 2
this mill had tool and part probing as a factory option, i was told that they tried to add a probe a few years back and could not get it to work, is there a way to add it?

hardine in general doesn't have a big presents in my area, so the techs while very capable where not familiar with these mills

Thanks
Chris
