Calibration issues

Dear All,
I've just completed building my mark3 printer, recieved a couple of days ago. However, I'm now having issues in the first step of the 4 point calibration which results in asking me to consult the manual which doesn't offer a resolution. I'm suspecting that it is an issue the the vertical Z-axis as this doesn't travel fully up and down at any point. I've loosened a number of screws to see if there is anything too tight but to no improvement. I'm a first time printer so apologies if there is insufficient detail. Happy to answer any specific questions.

Re: Calibration issues

What 4 point calibration ? Can you be more specific ? Perhaps the manual page number you are dealing with ?

As for Z travel, many of the calibration steps it does not move top to bottom. But having the X-Axis level is important so the Z-Axis doesn't jam. It's one of the manual adjustments done during setup, before power on.
