Thread: Help! Boxford 125 TCL CNC lathe

I would like to resurrect this fine thread just one more time, if you folks could lend some wisdom
I have a Boxford 125 TCL with Mach 3 and I am struggling to get the spindle to rotate. The X and Z axis’ are working as they should but the spindle is not turning at all
I’ve scoured the web for a few days and haven’t managed to find any remedy. I believe it could be down to incorrect parameters within:
Ports and Pins > Spindle Setup
Ports and Pins > Motor Outputs (“Spindle”)
I have taken the back off the lathe and traced the motor cables hoping to find trace it to a numbered port on a circuitboard but it seems a bit more complicated than that. I haven’t got a clue how the spindle’s motor is controlled and if the parameters are correct (likely not)
As you can probably tell I’m a complete novice with these builds/setups. If anybody could point me in the direction of basics to check on the machine itself and in the parameters it would be a huge help
Thanks, Repro
