Using both hands, push the belt in from the
outside of the idlers. The belt will bubble up as it
travels through the thin gap.
Once accessible, grab the loop with your ngers or
the allen key and pull enough out so you can grab
it with your ngers.
Twisting the belt slightly, slide one edge between
the pulley and the plate until half of the loop is
around the pulley.
Align the belt with the pulley and pull one end of
the belt while holding the other to secure the belt
around the pulley.
After stringing the belt over the X-Axis motor pulley,
route the other end through another belt clip. Use the
same method as the other side to properly route the
belt through the clip.
To get the proper tension on the belt, pull enough
belting through the clip (underlapping) so you can
push the belt clip, with your nger to within about 1/4”
of the End Plate.
