hi folks, just picked up a 2003 Novamill for work, the E stop button is loose. I've not had chance to investigate further but wondered if this was a common problem/how do I tighten it up?
Cheers

Re: loose E stop button
You can get to the nut on the estop button if you remove the lid to the 40mm plastic trunking on the inside of the machine.

Re: loose E stop button
I take it that will be accessed from underneath? ill slide it to the end of the bench and have a look.
Fired it up and moved it about a bit today. nice smooth machine, doesn't seem to have the same level of Z travel as the micromill, I did read somewhere on here that someone had put a block in the raise the Z travel up.
Looking forward to running it on projects.

Re: loose E stop button
You get to it from above. If you look inside the cabinet behind the button you will see the 40mm square white trunking with a lid that snaps on. Just prize it up to gain access.
