I am preparing to install an Easson 8A DRO on my PM1340GT, I discovered that the GS11 Scale I ordered for the cross slide is 33mm high ( end caps are 33.5mm) and the space available between the cross slide and compound slide is less than what's needed.
I have noticed many members on here have installed the Easson DRO and have installed a cover over the scale and it clears.
Is it possible my slide is not as tall or my compound slide has not been machined enough.
Here's a couple of pictures to help show the situation.
The scale, both the GS10 and GS11 scale are the same size 33.53 at the end cap.
The space available between the top of apron and the bottom of the compound slide.
Any suggestions or if another member could measure what they have there so I can figure out what's up with my setup.
Thanks David.
