I don't have a PM mill, but looking at pictures of the 833TV it appears the backlash is adjusted the same way as my Bridgeport. Here's a link to the Bridgeport manual. Pages 5-5 through 5-10 show the procedure used for adjusting the gibs and table screws. Bridgeports come from the factory with .003 - .005 backlash on both axis.
