Hi All!

I purchased an M500 about two months ago and finally got around to setting it up. Running into two issues:

1 - Extremely Slow. Even with the speed 100% the machine moves incredibly slow, that is, UNTIL it gets time to cut - then it moves quickly. So only fast movement on cutting/engraving. Even pressing the buttons on the machine itself yields a slow movement from the motors (movement almost not visible).

2 - Beginning of cut there is a pause where the head doesn't move, but laser is on, and then it'll complete the required cut. So for example a circle I have attached an image here where you can see the origin point with this flashed area.M500 Super Slow 'Off Cut' Speed and Too Much Power 'Flash' at Beginning Of Cut.-img_0294-jpg

Any and all help is much appreciated!! I'm also wondering if these need some kind of a ground connection from the frame? Where should I hook it from if so?

Thanks!!
