okay so I am not sure if the previous owner lapped the carriage to the bed.
and I am trying to make sure everything is ready for its first cuts.
what is the proper way of adjusting the gibs on the carriage?
should you be able to push the carriage across the the bed by hand?
also the backlash in the handles of the carriage and cross slide is this normal to have?
I did read taigs manual but it didn't talk much about this (unless I dont have the right manual?
thanks!
