When running my new XC through the limit switch test there is a tight spot with about 20mm of M8 threaded rod left, going up the Z-Axis, before reaching the switch.
It was worse but I adjusted the V-Wheels, motor mounts, pulleys, and lightly oiled the rod. It stops when manually stepping as well. Makes binding sound. I noticed the V-wheel friction is tighter here than further down.
The Dewalt 611 is close to the bracket at this point, but not touching.
It “feels” like the rod might have a slight bend or maybe bad threading - but nothing is visible.
I have to quit working on it right now but will try removing the rod and flipping it end for end in a couple of hours.
I did use a power drill and ran the plastic nut the length of the rod about six times.
Anyone other suggestions? Thanks in advance.
