18.9 - Once you've got the belt through the slot (make sure you don't twist it!) make sure that

18.10 - Install the belt clamp - make sure that the top idler has fallen to the lowest position
before you tighten up the belt clamp - adjusting that idler is how we set the tension in the belt.
18.11 - I cannot emphasize enough how easy the forceps make this task! Before the next step,
you want to make sure that the toothed pulley on the stepper motors is properly aligned. See below for
an example of a properly aligned pulley.
