X axis Belt touches the left support
Hello to all
I, ve just mounted the prusa MKS3 Kit.
Everything works fine but I have the problem that the X Axis Belt touch the left support.
I have test the position of the X axis motor and aligment and it seems Ok.
I don't know how to fix IT.
Thanks un advance

Your roothed wheel is back to front. The fastenning boss should be at the end of the shaft. Not next to the motor
I try to make safe suggestions,You should understand the context and ensure you are happy that they are safe before attempting to apply my suggestions, what you do, is YOUR responsibility. Location Halifax UK

Thanks JoanTabb
Then I have to reverse the roothed wheel?

Or turn the printer while the pulley remains stationary

Yes, the x-axis toothed wheel is installed "backward" with the narrowest part of the wheel closest to the stepper motor. Be sure that you tighten the set screws in the correct sequence as well, one screw tightened onto the flat of the shaft and only then tighten the second.

Roothed wheel = Reversed Toothed Wheel
makes sense to me
Is your printer grinding? Bearings squeaking? Motors smoking?
