¶ 2.Disassembly steps:
¶ Step 1: Power off the printer
Before replacing the Y-axis belt, make sure to power off the printer and disconnect the power source for safety.
¶ Step 2: Remove the Y-axis belt tensioner
① Rotate the red knob on the Y-axis belt tensioner counterclockwise to remove it.
② Move the heated bed to the front and use a wrench or other tools to move the belt buckle fixed on the heated bed to the left and remove it.
③ Use an M2.0 hex wrench to unscrew the two screws that secure the tensioner.
④ Remove the tensioner and then take out the belt from the tensioner pulley.

② Use your hand to secure the belt buckle to the sheet metal fixation.
③ Once secured, move it to the groove on the left.
¶ Step 2: Install the Y-axis tensioner
① Thread the other end of the belt, which is not fixed, through the hole in the guide rail and loop it around the pulley.
② Move the heated bed to the side of the control panel (you could reference the axis core on the guide rail for specific positioning).
③ Secure the belt buckle to the sheet metal fixation.
④ Once secured, move it to the groove on the right.
⑤ Install the casing of the Y-axis tensioner and tighten the two screws on the left and right.
