There's no reason that the style you are showing would not work. The exact one you are showing is too light and too short of travel. If I recall, I think our target range is 5-7". This allows you to use a small 1/4" bit on the floor of a flat bed, and allow the changing of a long two flute cu

In addition to the polarity you will also need the proper dimensions, it is is slightly larger or smaller it may cause a problem.but that amount of voltage is nothing, I know the batteries in a car remote will work as long as it is within .5 volts of a new battery, "Okla Mike (Liltwisted)

I have not checked into it, but look at the polarity and make sure they are the same. If they are, 5/100 of a volt is not a deal breaker. On 6/2/2014 10:09 AM, Thomas Ellis wrote: I bought my Legacy 1200 used from a guy in New Jersey. The Z-Axis battery that was in the caliper when I bought it

Well, the answer is maybe in my humble opinion. I think 1/2" un-supported rails is on the light side and the rails might deflect under a heavy cut and a full sized router. Laminate trimmer or smaller 2 HP router might be ok. The acme thread is probably 10-tpi so to go an inch you are cranking
