Automatic Oiler Required You must confirm that the mill is regularly oiled. If you don't, there's a risk of motor faults. Use an Automatic Oiler Kit: 115 Vac (PN 38254).
Clean Machine Clean all chips and swarf from the machine with a bench brush and a dustpan.
NOTE: If you start with a clean machine, it's easier and safer to find and pick up any parts or fasteners that might drop during the procedure.
ECMv1.5 Update Kit Required If you don't have an ECMv1.5 or later control board, you must first install the ECM1v1.5 Update Replacement Kit (PN 39257for 1100M and 770M (PN 39718). For information, see the product's documentation.
Keep All Hardware To install the servo motors, you'll reuse many items currently used on the machine. Keep all hardware unless you're specifically instructed to discard it. If you don't, there's a risk that you won't have the hardware you need to complete the installation.
PathPilot v2.2.X or Later Required Only PathPilot v2.2.X and later has settings required to use a servo motor mill configuration. For information, go to "Update PathPilot".

Reference the Z-axis before referencing the other axes so that the spindle is clear of any possible obstructions: from the PathPilot interface, select Ref Z.
Once the spindle is clear of any possible obstructions, select Ref X and Ref Y.
Depending on the result of Step 5, do one of the following:
