Changing the X-axis origin position
The X-axis origin position can be changed to any position in the range from the front position of the X-axis arm base to

mounting bolt for the X-axis speed reduction unit as shown below.
CAUTION
If the origin position has been changed, then the absolute reset must be performed, the machine reference must be adjusted, and the
standard coordinate and point data must be reset.
