[* 8] Move the extruder to the middle of the X axis.
-[* 7] Pinch the lower belt to make it vibrate. Don't pinch too much as it might touch the carriage and produce a wrong frequency
-[* 5] Adjust the belt tension until you have a value around ***90Hz***. Between each measurements, ***move the extruder*** to full left and right and then center it again.
-[* 9] It is very important to move left and right the extruder between each measures to relax some tension in the belt.
