Greetings all; The printed manual that comes with a G0704 does not saw which direction to drive the gib to tighten.
I noted a wave pattern in the cuts that Y motion caused, and after staring at it for a minute, it occured to me that I was seeing the 5mm pitch of the Y screw. Shaking the tables, sure as heck, I can detect a slight motion that I believe is looseness in the GIB's for the Y saddle on the base. So first thing tomorrow, see if I can take that up. 6 months back, it was not detectable after I had checked and adjusted it then, but the doc's don't say & I've forgotten which way I drove it to take up the play then. I hope this wear slows after a while as things get broken in. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
