Getting back on to thank people for replying and offering you time. After loosening the motor plate and releasing the belt to the X servo motor I could see that the motor was fine. Next was the bearings I unbolted the screw block from the plate and now was able to move the spindle on the...

After several hours working with it today, the router now is reacting to the left switch and lets me orient it. I can send the gentry up and down the Y with out a problem but if I try left or right it sounds a bit rough on the X axis and trips. People said you I should be able to push the...
