The design of the Z-axis printed parts version B7 is slightly different from the pictures. The screw heads should be aligned with the surface of the part.
⬢Carefully slide the X-axis on the trapezoidal lead screws. By rotating both screws simultaneously let the X-axis slide until both trapezoidal lead screws are visible.
⬢Move the X-carriage towards the X-axis motor. Don't use excessive force.
⬢If the belt is stretched properly, you should feel a resistance and the X-carriage won't move at all. If the belt is too loose, it will deform (create a "wave") and jump over the teeth on the pulley.
Belt too loose? Return to step 13 and repeat all steps until now. You have to rotate the motor and retighten the belt in the X-carriage. Shortening the belt length by moving one or two teeth outside X-carriage should be enough.
⬢In Step 14, you were asked to have the belt a bit less stretched, however, for the optimal performance, the belt must be a bit harder to press with your fingers. Move the X-carriage all the way to the X-end-idler and try the belt tension in the middle of the X-axis.

Open the paper tube and look for the spiral wraps or textile sleeves inside. There are two possibilities:
⬢There are only textile sleeves present in the kit, then proceed according to the: 5. E軸の組み立て (ケーブルスリーブ)
⬢There is a combination of spiral wraps and textile sleeve in the kit, then proceed according to the: 5. E軸の組み立て (スパイラルチューブ)
