For this step, you need some parts from Pack 7. You also need the assembled X and Y carriages, and the the X rail.
(TO DO: instructions for alternate configurations. In the meantime, use |the instructions for version 1.3.)
Gantry and X belt anchor (shown here with NEMA 23 motors) (TO DO: update image to show the correct part LBA3.)
| Item | Part Number | Part Description | Count |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | S5-14 | M5 14 mm cap screw | 8 |
| 2 | W5 | M5 washer (form A) | 8 |
| 3 | LBA3 | Belt anchor (belt behind rail) | 2 |
Bolt the assembled Y carriages to the X MakerSlide using four screws each. The screws holding the rear X rail also attach the belt anchors. Orient the belt anchors as shown.
This is a good time to square the Z axis. Assemble this on a flat surface and use a set square to ensure that the X carriage is vertical. Do this with the X carriage near each Y motor plate, to make sure both ends are square. Tighten the screws firmly.
