Not sure this has much to do with the lathe specifically, but I have the operator console on my 8L and for some reason the velocity and feedrate dials are wrong. The velocity dial controls the feedrate and vice-versa. Couldn’t find any solutions to this on Tormach’s website, wondering if anyone knows anything about this?
@Joshua_Klapperich Unfortunately, this sounds like a case of the potentiometer board being flipped upside down.
You physically can flip the board. I would recommend reaching out to the technical support team, as they can guide you through the process!
I’m experiencing the same thing. 1 of a few disappointing and sub-par quality issues Ive experienced on my 8L. Not thrilled about that, and get a nice mental reminder every month when I submit my financing payment. I suppose the answer for me is to submit a ticket.
I feel like this is low hanging fruit, if the customer can be walked through the process to make this repair / flip the board, certainty the techs at the factory should be able to just get it right from the jump, since they install, I’d assume, several in a day. Or in the least, with more frequency than the end user ever will.
