About the limit switches and mounts
You may connect the limit switches to Acorn or any other controller configured to work with our limit switches.
To retrofit some of our limit switch mounts, one or two holes must be drilled and tapped on your machine.
NOTE: Click the Instructions tab above for information on mounting holes and instructions on modifying your accordion way cover (leadscrew mills only).
The improper use of machine tools and their accessories can result in serious injury. Before using this tool, thoroughly read the instructions and make sure you understand its proper and safe use.
Always wear safety glasses when operating machine tools.
