DRO install "how to"?

[tlangy]

Has anyone installed a new Chinese 3 axis dro on a BP type milling machine. The company I purchased it from did not give any kind of information as to how to check for accurate installation or things to be on the lookout for while installing dro. The brackets they shipped with dro are not adaquent, etc.

If anyone has any experience with the above I would greatly appreciate info on a site containing such info or leave me a message.

TIA so very much, I'm a nube, noob or whatever u guys call an ignorant f@#%,

Hi tlangy,

Welcome!

If you post a note in our Tool Tips and Tricks subforum, you're likely to receive some useful pointers. In the meanwhile, is this manual of any use: http://www.shumatech.com/products/dr...docs/guide.pdf

What are you planning to mill once the DRO is set up?
