Parts:

  • one loaded Z belt cover · already on the bench

Do:

  1. Pinch the Z belt flat and slide the cover in, belt through its slot, hammerhead nut into the channel.
  2. Hold the cover square, tighten the M3×6 BHCS. If the nut spins, back off and re-seat it squarely.

check Check

Cover flat against the extrusion, the Z belt running through freely with no rub, the cover not moving when pushed.

helperHelper Pinches the Z belt flat while you slide the cover in.

What you're looking at

The cover goes on with the belt already threaded through its slot, which is why the belt is pinched flat first. The click you feel is the hammerhead nut rotating and biting inside the extrusion channel.
