While running a simple project that amounted to only 1/4" carve paths, I kept getting Possible X-Axis Overload error messages. Fortunatly I had the option to press enter to continue and was able to finish the project, but only after serveral (15-20) error messages. The error only occured when the truck was not carving while moving from one area on the board to another. The board was a 36" long 1x6 of cedar and was supported on both ends, not that it needed it though. I did move the slide plate away about a 1/4" from the board, but I still kept getting the messages. There were no errors during the measurement portion of the board loading.
As I mentioned, I was able to finish the project but was curious if anyone knows what might have caused the error message. I've loaded longer/heavier boards, always supported, and never had this happen before.
Thanks for any insights !
