I wanted to let you guys know the new flexshaft was the problem. LHR replaced the flexshaft and the replacement fit correctly. Hard to believe a machined part having a size difference enough to...

I have now tried pulling the clamp that applies pressure to the bearing/ball. Even with the ball completely out of the way the new flexshaft end will not completely go into the top hat. I removed...

Clint,
I verified the shaft is seating correctly into the Z truck. I have actually removed the top hat and with it removed cannot snap the new flexshaft into the top hat. So I know its not the...

okay both the old and new measure the same. After closer inspection of the fitting on the new sheath I noticed the groove is significantly less rounded on the new flexshaft. The old one has more...

I will measure and see if its actually different. My old sheath shows wear on the inside cut motor end. Afraid to use it again.

Thanks Al, I will take a closer inspection over the weekend. I ran three projects today with no errors. I have had off and on issues since I bought the machine 4 years ago. Hard to believe the...

I finished a project last night and today I tried to load a new project and I kept getting the "Clear Board Sensor" error. I cleaned the machine completely and still had the same problem. I then...
