Cut Rotation and Backlash Correction
An operator experiencing cut rotation issues with the Dragon A150 machine may be required to
check set screws and chains to ensure backlash settings are accurate. As a result of daily use,
the machine may experience loose set screws or chains that come out of adjustment. There is
also a Backlash Correction procedure in Bend-Tech Dragon software. Ensuring all set screws
and chains are tight and adjusted, and Backlash Correction is performed in Bend-Tech Dragon
software, will maintain cut rotation accuracy.
