    probe question

    Mornin,
    Has anyone ever chucked up the probe and zeroed it with the plate before plugging it in? Wondering if it would hurt the probe. Just thinking here.

    what happened here

    Things were going well when this happened. Z went crazy in the middle of a cut. The picture shows how things were great, then all of a sudden it went to trash. Any help out there.
    Thank you, Graham
