Yes, fixing it is pretty simple.. You just need to position the head in the x-direction, so that the grub screw on the rear pulley on that rod is facing down into the body of the printer. Then loosen the grub screw on the pulley. Next push the axis rod all the way towards the front of the machine, and while holding it there, slide the rear pulley and spacer tight up against the rear bearing. Tighten the grub screw again. Now the rod can't slide back and forth any more.
I find that a ball-end 2mm hex screwdriver is ideal for tightening these screws - much easier than the standard Allen keys. Something like this:
Additionally, it looks like the LED strip wiring in that corner is rubbing on the other axis' pulley. Push that out of the way so it doesn't catch. You can put a drop of superglue behind it to stick it to the front plate and hold it out of the way if it helps.
Loosen the set screws on the pulley, push the rod into place, push the pulley as far as it will go against the body of the printer and finally re-tighten the set screws. Rinse repeat on the other side if necessary.
Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
