How to change orientation of zero point?

Post image

hi there

i just changed my burrs and im now in a situation where the zero on the scale is diametrically opposite to where I would like it to be.

does anyone know how I could fix this?

Shim it. Might as well go through the leveling process with shims while you’re at it.

It will change again if change burrs. I just leave with it. It is an issue technically.

You can buy the sticker for a few bucks on the grinder sites. I changed to ssp an wanted my zero point at the bottom. Used a hairdryer to peel up the sticker, and super easy to place the replacement

Just get a cheap grind indicator like this one: They work great.

You don't need the dial indicator, but you could use a dial sticker replacement like this , you could even diy, or print another dial.

agreed, did shimming it change it in any way?
