X-Axis struggling to move
Hi, whenever I use the auto-bed mesh leveling feature, the motor has a hard time MOVING the x-carraige. The belt doesn't slip, it is very tight, the motor literally cannot move.
How do I move this? thanks.
Re: X-Axis struggling to move
X-axis you say.. Extruder left right..
Ok, you checked belt tension you said. Is it maybe too tight?
Also check the pulley here:

If it is lose, it might slip: the grub screw of the pulley needs to sit against the flat part of the motor shaft and needs to be tightened properly.
When powered off, can you move the extruder manually? Ist it smooth? If not: I had received some broken bearings, maybe some of yours are broken too? Did you try a bit of silicon grease or sewing machine oil (not WD40)?
