    Turret Not seating after crash

    Anybody have Ideas or anybody had this problem after crash. Machine crash and now my turret will not seat completely down to compress the coolant connect. It seams to be 1/4 to 3/8 from bottom. rotates as seams to sit as normal but not back down far enough to compress on the coolant valve. so it must be not seating down all the way. I also have to hit reset every time I want to rotate the turret now I'm thinking of loosening up the bolts ion the turret and let it self seat maybe its just knocked out of alignment. Any ideas. Thanks in advance.

    Of course it is ouf of allignment now. You can check if your cutter nose goes through the rotation center moving X axis.
    Recall the installation of the lathe. Normally two tapered pins should be taken out after transportation of the lathe. Makes the alignment much easier.
