lay it onto the bed so that
these bolt heads lay in
those recesses. Looking at
the bed in the orientation
above, the Front Frame
Piece should be towards the
top. Notice that each Y Axis
Bearing Plate has three
small holes left. Line these
holes in the plate up with
the small pilot holes. Slide
an M5 washer onto the
wood screws, then begin to
thread it into the holes. Do
not tighten the wood
screws down until you get
all the screws in both
bearing plates (six total,
three in each plate).
Check
as you tighten the screws
down that the bed flushes up
to the front of back Frame
Piece. It should not be
canted or twisted.
After you
finish mounting the bed, flip
the Y axis assembly back
over and slide it back and
forth to ensure that the
motion is smooth. If not,
either the eccentric spacers
are too tight or the bearing
plates were a bit cocked
relative to one another
when you torqued them down tight.
