You'll need some parts from Pack 7, and the belt anchor plates from Pack 6. If you have a kit with a NEMA23 motor on the X axis, you will find both types of belt anchor in Pack 6; only one pair is needed, depending on how you opted to install your X motor and belt idler wheels.
You also need the assembled X and Y carriages, and the X rail.
Belt on top (configurations A, E, F)
| Item | Part Number | Part Description | Count |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | EM-S5-14 | M5 14mm cap screw | 8 |
| 2 | EM-W5 | M5 washer (form A) | 8 |
| 3 | EM-LBA | Belt anchor | 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 anchor so that the rectangular opening is offset toward the rear of the machine.
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.
Belt on the side (configurations B, C, D)
| Item | Part Number | Part Description | Count |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | EM-S5-14 | M5 14mm cap screw | 8 |
| 2 | EM-W5 | M5 washer (form A) | 8 |
| 3 | EM-LBA1 | Belt-on-the-side belt anchor | 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.
