|---|---|
| + | [* 9] Be careful with this step as you might damage the lead screw nuts (black nuts on the X ends). |
| + | [* 7] Place the X axis on top of the Z lead screws. Carefully rotate by hand the Z lead screw to engage and move down the X axis. |
| + | [* 9] Be very careful, never force on the lead screw nuts or you might damage them. |
| + | [* 9] Rotate the lead screws in synchronization. |
| + | [* 5] Continue to rotate the Z lead screws ***simultaneously*** until you can align the top X smooth rod with the bottom of top Z axis extrusion. |
| + | [* 9] Verify the X axis is parallel and make correction if necessary. |
| + | [* 8] ***Very gently*** slide the two Z smooth rods (320mm long) down to the Z motors. The smooth rods must be fully inserted until they touch the Z motors (you can hear a "metallic click" when you reach the motor). |
| + | [* 9] Verify the Z smooth rods are fully inserted down to the Z motors. This is very important as it might affect the alignment of your X axis later. |
