Thread: KX1 Drawbar too long?
Threaded View

I've just a new KX1 from arc euro trade. Setup was fine until i went to install a tool. The drawbar appears too long by about 5mm.
There is always a loose gap between the collet and spindle arbor. If i press the collet up to fit properly then the drawbar is pressed up too far for the screw on cover on top.
Im using this guide to confirm how I'm installing it: https://sites.google.com/site/iannew...ine/sieg-kx1-a
Am i doing something stupid ?? (entirely likely) Can i just cut the draw down by, say, 7mm to get a decent fit?
Ive tried on several collets (from the same set) and a collet chuck. (all MT2, M10)
It was all going so well, installing mach3 via usb on a virtual machine.... that side all works perfectly (for now)
cheers
Joe
