Tightening Nuts in Gantry
Posted: Sun Mar 03, 2019 3:15 am
I have a Shark Pro Plus HD CNC Router:
I have searched the forum for threads about how to tighten the nuts on the frame of the Gantry. I installed the back plate gantry upgrade aluminum plate and cannot get the nuts in the oval slots to tighten. I used a small screw driver to hold the nut still but it slips.
Sorry if this has been answered but I cannot find it by searching.
Is there a special tool because a small wrench will not fit in the cavity that the nut sits in.
I also got a billet aluminum router plate and the Z axis has the same bolt setup and will require tightening after I clean up the mount.
Thanks
