Y-Carriage Assembly Step24

Hi all... I'm in the midst of assembling the printer and have a question about step 24. Its regarding the y axis bearings and how they are held in place. The question I have is whether the ubolts need to hold the bearings firmly in place or loosely. I noticed that if I leave it bolted down to the surface of the nut as instructed, it has alot of play when mounted to the frame. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

Re: Y-Carriage Assembly Step24

at Step 24 you are supposed to turn the nut until it contacts

in Step 25 it states to turn each nut 90 degrees

at least as of now, Dec 28 2017 that is what the directions state. It seems they are supposed to be 'tight' to some degree but it is important to follow the procedure
