Just got an X carve (pre-2021) and while working on a project with my daughter, we accidentally raised the Z-axis too high. Now the Z-axis is way off. I tried removing the machine from Easel and reloading, tried lowering the Z-axis manually while the machine is off. Even with these attempts to fix this the machine is “air cutting” or raising the Z-axis too high and jamming the router into the motor mount.
Any suggestions? Super new to this and not super tech savvy.
when I hit the home button, the Z-Axis is trying to elevate too hit, causing the router to hit the Z-axis mount.
I’ve tried just using the start new position function, setting it with just the tip on the corner of the board. when I start the cut, the Z-axis is elevating too high and air cutting.
you may have bent the home switch. bend the sping down just a little and try to home it again. if it would be easier for you, send me a pm on facebook messenger. then i can see whats happening
