The v-wheels fit over the aluminum rail as pictured below. Check that they are sitting on the rail in the correct
fashion and make sure that they roll along the edge of the rail properly.
Now the eccentric nuts need to be tensioned in order for the
v-wheels to properly hold onto the X-axis rail. This process is just
like before when you widened the eccentric nuts, except now
you want to rotate the nuts so that the v-wheels are brought
closer together. Follow the process of loosening the v-wheel
bolts with an Allen key, rotating the nut a small amount, re-
tightening the bolts, and then checking the looseness of the
wheels with your fingers. A properly tensioned system should
roll smoothly along the rail but it should be difficult to use your
fingers to turn the wheels by hand while the gantry is stationary.
Lay the X-axis rail down along its length with the inside of the ‘L’ shape facing you and the small, tapped hole
oriented to your left. Now take the XZ-axis gantry and slide it onto the rail, being mindful of the plastic ‘arm’ that
sticks out the back of the assembly since it’s prone to breaking in this position (pictured).
