a) Route the X-axis motor and encoder cable and connect.
b) If this is a machine with a rotary axis, route the A-axis motor, home switch, and rotary encoder
cables. Also route the air line for the rotary brake. The connectors for the A-axis motor and encod-
er cables are near the junction of the table bas and the column base. Connect the motor cables to
the supply cables from the control box and place the connectors in the cavity of the column base.
c) Route the oil line from the table base and connect with the manifold on the lube panel.
9. Power up the machine.
10. Zero return the X-axis.
11. If equipped, enable the A-axis and zero return.
12. Check cable clearances under the table for the full X-axis travel and secure where necessary.

The column is held in place for shipping by means of blocks that are screwed into the column base. There are two blocks in the front and two blocks in the rear of the column. These blocks must be removed before normal operation of the column axis is possible. To access the shipping blocks, both base way covers need to be fully retracted from the column. When the front way cover is disconnected from the column, the lower column axis bellows will need to be properly supported. For that reason, the counterbalance must be charged prior to the removal of the shipping blocks in the column base, permitting the spindle head to be safely raised. The Y-axis has been disabled in parameters for reasons of safety on power up of the machine.
