@scooter0005,
VPI has a good forum - vpiforum.com • Index page and there are people there with a lot experience with all their tables and some of them have as much knowledge as the company. If you have any issues with setting up your table - post your questions there and you will get some good support. I have read where members who were close went to the person's home to assist with setup. Otherwise you bought a good table from a company that's in it for the long haul, and while some parts such as the motor are not current state-of-the-art - its 'only' a permanent magnet (PM) AC synchronous motor they are made in the USA and have been for many years. VPI is working on some new designs - which are the software heavy DC 3-phase PM motors and when they issue (COVID slowing many things) they will likely be backward compatible.
