| + | [* icon_note] Formbot Raptor owners will only reuse the X Motor/ bracket. Vivedino Raptor 2 owners will reuse the X Motor/ Bracket and X belt. |
| [* black] Route one end of the belt through the front of the belt slot on the X Carriage Plate and fold over about ½”. Using a cable tie, secure that end in place, making sure the teeth on the belt mesh together to hold tight. | |
| [* black] Run the belt around the opposite side pulley and back to the open slot repeating the process, this time pulling the belt tight with your hands or needle nose pliers before securing with a cable tie. | |
| [* icon_note] The belt should be slightly loose at this point. | |
| [* black] Loosen the bolts to the X Idler assembly and while pushing it away from the frame, tighten the screws. This step can be repeated once on the machine to hold things more securely and final tension the belt. | |
| [* black] Add a second cable tie to both sides next to the others. |
