Z Stop Concern -MK3S+

 

When doing a calibration. The Z axis check raises the print head as far up as it needs to. My concern is that while it is doing this, the right motor stops when you would expect it to(at the top end of the rod and gear) however, the left motor continues to run as if it were still trying to reach the top. This makes the mechanism grind for a short time. I checked and expected to see a z stop i could inspect/adjust but perhaps thats not applicable to this printer as i did not see one?

 

Any help would be appreciated 👍🏼

What your seeing is normal behavior and will not damage the printer. This is how the mk3 works.
