How to Adjust the V Wheel of X and Y Axis

Why Do We Need to Adjust the V-Wheel?

After using the equipment for some time, the V-wheels can experience slight wear, causing the eccentric nut to loosen slightly. This necessitates adjusting the tightness of the V-wheels to ensure optimal performance.

X-axis V-Wheel Adjustment Steps:

  1. Prepare the Tools: Use a No. 10 open wrench to adjust the eccentric nut on the lower end of the X-axis V-wheel fixing plate.
  2. Adjust the Eccentric Nut:
    1. Turn clockwise to loosen.
    2. Turn counterclockwise to tighten.
  3. Check the Adjustment:
    1. Ensure that when you shake the extruder up and down, there is no shaking.
    2. The extruder should slide smoothly left and right without obstruction.
    3. If these conditions are met, the X-axis V-wheel adjustment is successful.

Y-axis V-Wheel Adjustment Steps:

  1. Prepare the Tools: Use a No. 10 open wrench to adjust the eccentric nut on the right end V-wheel of the hot bed.
  2. Adjust the Eccentric Nut:
    1. Turn clockwise to loosen.
    2. Turn counterclockwise to tighten.
  3. Check the Adjustment:
    1. Ensure that when you shake the hot bed up and down, there is no shaking.
    2. The hot bed should slide smoothly back and forth without obstruction.
    3. If these conditions are met, the Y-axis V-wheel adjustment is successful.
