l have an annoying problem with my faceting machine .When lowering faceting head using micro adjuster the faceting head is sticking on mast pole and requires slight tap to sit flush with stopper.lve been told it might have something to do with the bearings in the faceting head.lve got no idea how they could be adjusted/realigned.Any ideas.?Thanks wayne.
 
thanks for reply nena lve since spoken to a person with this same machine and the problem l have is common to this machine.Apparently due to the weight of the faceting head it tends to apply to much pressure transferred to mast and bearings causing them to stick lock onto mast so l slight tap overcomes the problem when using the micro adjuster when lowering.
