Introduction

This guide demonstrates the steps to tighten the long belt on the Ultimaker 2+ or 3.

Reference: Tightening the Long Belts

    • Gently pull on the bottom of the belt loop

    • If the belt has tension similar to a guitar string, it's good

    • If the belt is hanging loosely, it has slipped on the pulley teeth

    • If the printer is layer shifting, check the belt tension

    • Find the pulley of the belt that needs to be tightened

    • Use a 2mm hex driver to loosen the screw on the pulley

    • As you loosen the screw, you should see the belt tighten up

    • Tighten the screw on the pulley

    • The belt should now be properly tensioned
