Tool change height adjustment?

Is there a setting in the classic control that adjusts the Z height setting at tool change on Umbrella style machines?

As I recall it is a parameter adjustment but it is adjusted in encoder pulses or some such, if you call the factory they will walk you through how to do it.

More likely your problem is the 5/16 bolts used as axles for the wheels of the carriage are bent and need replaced and they are just normal grade 8 bolts with some blue locktite on them
 
Before adjusting the Z axis you should check the Y axis of the ATC. The whole assembly is moved in/out on four bolts inside the arm that mounts it to the side of the column. If you need to correct the Y position it will affect the Z position. Then change Parameter 64.
