Most likely the spoil board is not flat and/or not coplanar to the machine. In this thread there are many approaches to tramming the machine that could also be used to check for flat and coplanar as well, most require a dial indicator.

Anyone have any tips or suggestions?? I know there isn’t an eccentric nut anywhere, which would be nice, like I have on my Shapeoko and my AVID CNC.
