Step 3. Attach the Belt Tensioning Fixture between the Stepper and Platen pulleys (see Figure 6-5). Note that two cutouts on the fixture attach to the platen and stepper pulley shafts, respectively, and that the post between these cutouts must bear on the right side of the stepper belt. Also, the flat of the platen shaft must face the flat on the fixture.
