Adjusting eccentric spacers on Y-axis after assembly complete?

Hi everyone.

I’ve been using my new Workbee Z1 for a few days now and just noticed only 2 top wheels on the left Y-carriage are rotating when travelling up & down the (left) Y-axis extrusion. The other top 2 wheels are not making contact/rotating nor are all 4 bottom wheels. I assume I just need to tighten up/adjust the eccentric spacers but these are positioned on the bottom pair of wheels where there is no room to get my hand & the (tiny) spanner on to the spacers between the underside of the carriage and the bench the machine is attached to. Any advice? Many thanks in advance. Best. Andy

Thanks for coming back to me Robert. Fortunately I was able to cut a service slot out of my table top so now I can (more comfortably) access them from beneath. I think it’s something worth covering in the manual ? All the best. Andy

Hi Andy,

Thanks for your question. From the information you have provided the bottom eccentric spacers need adjusting.

We provide a wheel adjustment spanner, that should allow you to adjust the eccentric spacers in situ. If you have large hands it may be awkward, have you got anyone who can assist?
