Hi all I removed all three axes from my 13 to clean the clogged oil passages, a sticky x axis lock (corroded)and to and address a control issue with vertical movement (it won't stay engaged thanks to a sheared pin).
Now that I am putting it back together there is a problem. I can't seem to get the vertical gears to sit in neutral. So this means it is always partially engaged in the vertical drive and the level always bumps around when you turn the Z axis handle. The holes for the bolts that hold the control level onto the machine are oversize, presumably to allow adjustment but I can't seem to get it right. Has anyway dealt with this?
I don't think there is anything in the manual although I find the technical German a bit daunting so it is possible. (I will attach a scan)
thanks
Luke
