Small pieces of the x-belt is laying under the stepper motor
Right under my x stepper motor there is some tiny parts of my belt.
they come when I print.
Is this because the printer is brand new or is the belt to tight?

can you post a pic?

Yes, next time I print.
I just cleaned it up. 🙁
Check that your belt idler pulleys are straight.
Cheerio,

If I move the extruder by hand I can se the belt moving side to side on the pulley at the steppermotor side.
Can i adjust that somewhere?

If I make the belt strait with my finger and moves the extruder to the left, then just before the extruder is all the way to the left it twists again.
Then if I move the extruder to the right the belt is twisted.
So something is twisting the belt allmost before the extruder is to the left end.
I need to figure out what is wrong, because the small belt parts gets stuck on the headbed.

I push the pulley in agains the motor and that seems to have worked.

Excellent. the
the X motor pulley goes on back to front, with the retaining boss to the front

From what I can see, you might have the pulley the wrong way round.
you would think that the fastening boss, goes towards the face of the motor but it actually goes to the end of the shaft
see the inset image above

No mine is as on the picture.
I just pushed it a little closer to the motor.
