This guide covers replacing the table (z-axis) motor on the Fusion Pro 32 and 48. The motor is behind the right panel, and its position sets the tension on the table belt, so it is marked before removal and the new motor is lined up with that mark.
Parts Required
- FT1008 – Table Motor Assy, Fusion
Tools / Materials Required
- 5/32" and 7/64" Allen Wrenches
