Model G0895 (Mfd. Since 01/20)
Adjusting Axis
Positions Manually
Knowing how to manually control axis movement
is an essential part of operating the G0895. Axes
must be positioned manually whenever a work
origin is set.
Use axis movement buttons on controller (X+,
X-, Y+, Y-, Z+, and Z-) to move axes. See
Controller Functions on Page 6 for detailed
button descriptions.
Manual axis movement can be performed at two
speeds and in three motion modes: Continuous,
Step, and Distance.
Manual axis movement allows movement
beyond soft limit proximity switches, which
can damage the machine. Always be aware
of axis locations during manual movement,
and be prepared to stop machine if axes
move unexpectedly.
1. Press HIGH/LOW to toggle between fast and
slow speeds.
Changing Axis Movement Speed
1. Press MODE to toggle between Continuous,
Step, and Distance modes.
— In Continuous mode, press and hold axis
movement buttons to move axes. Release
button to stop movement.
— In Step mode, press button to move axis
one step. Step size is determined by
speed mode.
— In Distance mode, press button to move
axis a user-defined distance. Set distance
by toggling to Distance mode, then input
distance and press OK. Controller will dis-
play current setting.
Changing Axis Movement Mode
Homing Axes
Homing the machine returns all three axes to
"home" position or the machine-specific zero
point. Home is determined by magnetic limit
switches and will not change.
Since all machine movement is calculated from
home, always home axes and verify machine
parameters before each operation.
To home axes:
1. Press HOME. Verify all axes move to their
farthest positions.
2. Verify all machine parameters listed in
Verifying Parameters on Page 28.
