    Milltronics RW 15 gibs problem

    I have a Milltronics RW15
    The table on Y is .035 out and .003 on X
    I can live with X but not Y out that much.
    What is the proper procedure to level the table.
    I've played with the gibs but couldn't get the table to level up.
    Is there supposed to be a plastic shims or guides on top of the gib rail that the table moves on?

    I would check the headstock. If the gibs or turcite are damaged there, that would make the head go out of perpendicular to the table surface.
