I'm wondering if there is any particular technique to accessing the belt clamps under the y carriage to properly secure and tighten the belt. It seems like it will be a very tedious process trying to slip the fingers underneath, holding the belt tight with fingertips and tightening a tiny bit at a time with an L allan key.
I'm actually leaning towards drilling one or two access holes in the bottom of the machine, so that I can simply tilt the machine on its side, stick a hex driver straight through the bottom to tighten the clamps, while most likely holding the belt tight with some needle nose pliers. But before I go drilling, I figured I'd ask how others are accessing these clamps, in case there is a better technique.
Thanks.
