Hi Gents

This may be a stupid question, but, do I need to lightly face the Backplate attached to the 4 Jaw Independent Chuck that I received with my WM250 for better accuracy?

TIA

Unless you are really sure there is an issue and confident you would make it better: No. I left well alone on the basis that my WM250 was better than I was…

No, unless you have clocked it against the face and can see considerable runout then no.

Mine was good
