I’d listen to Will, he’s like the C3D online support ringleader. He’s Not in charge of the circus, but I’d trust his wisdom. Err38 seems to be related to a speed fault. I’m assuming the spindle actually runs before you get the fault? Could be a loose wire at or inside a plug. Check your connections at the spindle and vfd. A pin might be loose, so give each wire a gentle tug to verify nothing is slipping out of the plug. It’s also a good idea to look inside the aviation plug at the spindle to see if there’s a loose pin in the motor. No need to remove any screws. Carbide will do their best to guarantee it’s fully functional without you tearing anything apart too much.

Not a ringleader — cheerleader/band-booster maybe — I am emphatically not in charge.

I try to help on support, and I kibbitz here and on other forums — every so often I manage to design and cut something for myself…
