I picked up a 2005 HAAS VF2SS over the weekend and set it up.
I wasn't able to get the spindle to take a tool. The draw bar wasn't coming down far enough. I ended up following HAAS 30/40 Taper - Tool Release Piston - Sensor Adjustment - VMC and needed to add .05" shims. I can get a tool holder in the spindle now and everything seems fine.
As far as I know, there were no issues prior to transporting the machine. It did sit unused for a few months.
Curious if anyone has came across this, or if there is something else I should be concerned about or looking for other than shimming the striker plate?
