6.6 Check for play on the axles
The four X and Y axles are locked in place by the pulleys. However, it is possible that one or more of the pulleys can
become slightly loose over time, which could affect their alignment. If this is the case, there could be play on the X
and/or Y axles which can cause issues with print quality.
It is recommended to check for play on the axles at least once every three months.
Start with the right X axle. Place the print head in the back-left corner of the printer to keep it out of the way. Hold the
frame of the Ultimaker S5 with one hand, and firmly hold the right X axle with the other. Attempt to move the axle
forwards and backwards; do not be afraid to apply too much force.
Repeat this for the other axles. Make sure to move the print head to the opposite side each time.
The axles should not move at all. If one of the axles does move, you will notice a ticking noise caused by the pulleys
hitting the frame. In this case, it is recommended to calibrate the print head. For instructions on how to do this, take a
look at the Ultimaker website.
