    Does anyone out there know how to adjust the tailstock on a ZL250 with a programmable tailstock.
    Thanks

    up and down seems pretty obvious using the jack screws I have .003 too high right now. front to back it is forward .001. Now this is just indicating the center, once I get that aligned I am going to turn a part between centers, check taper and adjust from there.
