Thanks! We went with a new concept with this video where we covered the basic installation, as well as the most common accessories, in the order that makes the installation less difficult. We hope this helps!
This video is so helpful! Super pleased with my Tormach 770m during my setup so far! Been really simple and straightforward! About to make my first test parts in a couple hours and then start making my production parts later this afternoon! Literally, 24 hours to make parts from dropping it on the stand, that's whats up! I cant wait until my enclosure arrives!
We are always happy to get more feedback on our videos or how to improve technical documentation. Please feel free to send your thoughts to suggestions@tormach.com
Great video, very informative. I have ordered my 770M all the way from Australia, cant wait for it to get here, looks so good. I have a suggestion, would it be possible to have the 3 Drivers that are installed from the factory be moved along one slot to the right? This would make it much easier for people to install the Driver for the 4th axis if they just drop it into DR1 slot eliminating the need to remove and refit the capacitor and also having more room to slot the extra driver in. The less work a customer does, the less chance they have to mess it up ; ) .
Please update your manual, the FRL for the power drawbar is not the same one in the manual (or in the documents for the FRL on the website) secondly it is labeled wrong as well, has a PN 38829 label on it when online it is labeled as PN 32445. Made searching for it impossible
The 770M weighs 900 lbs.. Tormach recommends using an 1.5 ton engine hoist. If you don't want to purchase one, look for a good rental company in your area. The engine hoists with the parallel legs are easier to maneuver. Remember to also purchase a lifting bar, that will attach to the table and top of the mill. If you plan on only one mill, you can check your local Tormach user groups to see if you can borrow a lifting bar.
The stand and chip guards are available with the Starter package: www.tormach.com/store/index.php?app=ecom&ns=catshow&ref=1100M-STARTER-PKG&portrelay=1
If your manual did not come with the Machine Owner's Kit, you can download it from this link, you can look up any part number from here www.tormach.com/docs
Great Video! It will help with the install, as well as provide insight on future attachments! Make sure every new customer gets this.

Busting some killer moves at 2:10!
Very informative thanks!
Unfortunately, we didn't include the audio, as he was singing as well. Thanks for the nice comment!

All assembly videos should be this succinct!
Agreed
This is a great video to augment the manual, which has information missing, or is not clear. Thanks guys !

We always appreciate customer feedback! We'll be sure to pass your comments to our engineering team. Thanks and enjoy your new machine!
Amazing :D just love the video!!! It's a wonderful machine. I definitely need one.
Thanks, we're glad you love the video. We also think it's a wonderful machine!
Great video. This is very attractive to me.
Thanks for the video. Looking forward to one for the 1100 MX!
We're looking forward to getting some 1100MX's in here so we can make that video!
Any update on this? Just got my 1100M
Please update your manual, the FRL for the power drawbar is not the same one in the manual (or in the documents for the FRL on the website) secondly it is labeled wrong as well, has a PN 38829 label on it when online it is labeled as PN 32445. Made searching for it impossible
Thanks for bringing this to our attention Paul. We will get this corrected right away. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
Just got my mill 3 days ago. This still hasn't been fixed. Super frustrated with the FRL part.
You have to have a engine hoist to assemble? How heavy is it? Because I’m thinking about buying one but I don’t have a engine hoist..
The 770M weighs 900 lbs.. Tormach recommends using an 1.5 ton engine hoist. If you don't want to purchase one, look for a good rental company in your area.

Does that power drawbar put all the pressure on the top bearing when it compresses the bellville washers? If yes, the bearings won't last long.
We kept bearing-life in mind while designing this accessory. The power drawbar system was designed to keep the load off of the spindle bearings.
Jason wasn't looking too happy during the enclosure install.
Are you going to do a similar video for the 1100M?
The installation procedure for the 1100M is very similar to the 770M, but yes, an install video for the 1100M will be available in the future.
Yea! Hopefully soon, I just ordered my 1100M.
If you purchased a base, Does the Chip Gaurds come with the 1100M?
The stand and chip guards are available with the Starter package: www.tormach.com/store/index.php?app=ecom&ns=catshow&ref=1100M-STARTER-PKG&portrelay=1
List of documents here could include default machine (manual shown at video start). Said manual was NOT in my order.
If your manual did not come with the Machine Owner's Kit, you can download it from this link, you can look up any part number from here www.tormach.com/docs
Is there a variant that will work in a 220/240V country?
If not you can use an adaptor.
Saludos, me gustaria si alguien sabe cual es el costo de ésta máquina.$$
