Parts:
- M5×40 SHCS ×2 · Fasteners, Tools & Misc box
Do:
- Turn the joint over, thin plate up, as p.98 shows.
- Drive the two remaining M5×40 SHCS down through the plate into the other two M5 nuts.
- Tighten all three evenly and firm: they thread into steel nuts.
Check
No light between the halves anywhere. The bearing stack still spins.
What you're looking at
The other two M5×40 bolts. Three bolts into three captive nuts turn the two printed halves into a single rigid block, which it has to be: belt tension in Ch 07 pulls hard on this corner and tries to prise it open.
