Wayne, FoxAlien sells a number of machines under the header of 4040. Likely loosening the Spoinboard and the frame connections in the corners and then pulling into equal diagonal measurements before re-tightening will resolve your issue, however you will get the most accurate information within the FoxAlien Facebook group found Here: [FoxAlien CNC Router & Laser Machine Group | Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/715689485864421)
