2-3 Setting the Y-axis Origin Point for the Center of Rotation
Setting the Y-axis Origin Point
CAUTION
Do not touch the tip of the live center and center drill with your fingers.
Doing so may result in injury.
To perform cutting using the rotary axis unit, you need to set the Y-axis origin point at the center of rotation.
Be sure to make this setting whenever you install or reinstall the rotary axis unit. We also recommend periodically
redoing the setting for the Y-axis origin to correct for deviation of the Y axis due to seasonal changes in temperature.
