In the manual are two techniques for alligning the drive. One requires a scope, and the oyther requires a DVM. I use the DVM method to allign my drive, and it seems to work well. Also included is a strobe wheel, that yoyu can xerox and attach to the motor's flywheel. Hold it under a flourescent light, and you can adjust the motor's speed. I got my manual at Walden Books. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Lowrey "So it goes, so it goes, so it goes, so it goes.
