All the belts seem to be in the right place pls help I’m sitting on this since like 2 weeks They are running in the right postion Moving in Y is easy but X is hard moving it diagonally its easy also. I Untightende the pulleys and it still hard to move in x direction

ok, could be a couple of things. but .. could the belt be .. too tight? if you move the gantry with one finger, does it tend to go to one side while moving backwards and forwards?

ok, seems like @Helge Keck is giving advice you also could follow in #v-core-3 or #general .. and me, because I tore my belt because it was too tight so I'm thinking of redoing the squareness..

The problem appears to be on the lower belt The toolhead jitters when moving the y axis
