I will say, I feel the the machine is very solid without much prep beyond cleaning.
When I uncrated my mill, I noticed a bit of weirdness in the spindle. It was a bit rougher to turn than I expected. After I read the last response I pulled the top bearing off today (It actually says CXWY 6007Z fwiw, and runs very smooth.) The roughness/growling I've observed can still be felt in the spindle without the top bearing when turned by hand (both fast and slow). I just want to try and hunt down the roughness and I think I'm on the right track thanks to everyone here. |
