Hi All,
I would like to move the BitSetter Pro-5 toward the back for clearance so I can use the BitZero V2.
Can this be done? What does it involve doing?
Thanks for any help,
Cheers … KAP

Re-run the Setup Wizard?
Thank you for the help on this.

Well Willam I may have spoken to early. I tried to move the BitSetter Pro-5 so I could use the BitZero V2 in the corner to set 0,0,0.
I do understand the video you referenced, no problem with that.
The issue is on the BitSetter Pro-5 with the wires bring way to short to move anymore the 1" from the location as shown in my pictures.

@Fifinella , I just gotta say that that is the most elegant spoilboard I have ever seen. ![]()
Thanks
… but that is the material we are cutting parts out of for the full size aircraft we build in our shop.
Do you really need to use the lower right corner as your reference for XY?
I use lower left 99.975% of the time and center for the rest. Never tried lower right.
The wire for BitZero is plenty long enough to reach the other side.
Throw a couple of ideas out there.
Why does front right need to be your zero instead of front left?
Many of us use the front left corner with fences. Then set z zero as needed.
I’ve made a bracket to move my bit setter forward to allow its use with a 4x4 sheet.
Do you need the bit setter? Are you running multiple bits or using the same bit for the job?
Well the spoil board is wider then the 4x4 sheet. The spoil board butts up against the BitZero V2 body. This makes it more convenient to zero out that corner and let the spoil board run out to the left. This way I can align the 4x4 sheet to the right same zero side as the spoil board.
Are you using CC for your designs? If so, there is no option to set tool path zero on the right side in Job Setup.
Hi Ed.E,
No, I am using VCarve Pro.
Cheers, KAP
Suggest you use the machine and see what your travel distance from far left front to far rf is.
If memory serves me correct it will be less than 48” before you hit the bit setter.
For full 4x4 capacity the bit setter has to be removed or relocated further forward.
