    been running for a few years with no problems.

    just had a problem popped up i went to zero to the table top using the zero plate
    when i ran the zero. The spindle moved down but did not stop when it touch the plate. have to hit the page up for it to go back up.
    .

    Make sure the Probe LED lights up when you touch the plate to the bit.
