    Has anyone put together a kit of parts for a maintenance time period? Would be nice to get all the parts as a kit instead of ordering them individually. Or either a pdf list of parts?

    Not sure if you have seen this or not. I was handed out at the conference. Probably not the listing you are looking for but it does give you and idea of what parts you might need at different times.

    I always keep cut motor brushes, bearings for the motors and truck bearings, x drive gears, ffc cables, y sprockets and rpm sensors handy. I order multiple at one time to save on shipping.

    Floyd,

    Thanks for the quick reply. I will check the the location of the wires tonight. It was late and hot in the shop last night but if I remember right I dont think the bit plate even engaged at all, like there was no power to it. Would the wire location cause that too? Thanks to all for the responses.

    Nope no power to the bit plate!

    The bit plate is engaged by the Y/Z truck when it moves to the far side of the machine. The Y/Z truck contacts the front lip of the bit plate and forces is to pop out. The bit plate is spring loaded to return to the normal position when the T/Z truck moves away. Any resistance to the Y movement of the Y/Z truck (dirty rails/bearing, cut motor wires etc) will interfere with the travel and when the machine sees enough resistance it will stop moving the truck.

    Like HE said..... The Number ONE reason the Bit Plate does NOT come out is that the Wires from the Right Side Cover Switch to the Cut Motor in the back RIGHT corner are NOT tucked into the far corner... IF you FORGET after putting the Cover back on.... Well, I know from the many times it has happened to ME.... The Cooling Fins from the back of the Z Motor BUMP into the Wires and the Y truck does NOT reach the Bit Plate.....

    That is another reason that I preach watching the Bit Plate process with EVERY BIT CHANGE..... Watching this process EVERY TIME tells you the HEALTH of your MACHINE....

    Good Luck,

    Floyd, Al and others:

    All fixed and up and running a job as I type this. Wires were indeed not "tucked in the corner" as recommended. Thanks once again to a great group of people willing to help us rookies in a time of dispair.
