One you’re done tensioning the wheels on all axes you should find that it’s still easy to rotate each lead screw with
your hands but if you grab the steel gantry it shouldn’t move around on the rail. It might be a bit loose moving the
plate back-and-forth and that’s the next step when tuning.
With the v-wheels tightened down, go around and finish bolting down the remaining anti-backlash nuts; there’s
one on each Y-axis and another on the X-axis. Recall the method for doing this when you did it for the Z-axis
where you alternate making a couple turns onto one bolt and then the other until they’re both tightened down
fully. If you twist hard onto just one bolt while the other one is loose it can twist the anti-backlash nut and misalign
it to the lead screw.
