Use the 4 mm hex wrench to turn the spring-load screw counter clockwise to uncompress the tensioner.
Note that the gap cannot exceed 5 mm between the score mark and the tensioner base.
10 Continue to unscrew the compression screw (turning counterclockwise) until there is a 10 mm gap
between the screw head and tensioner base.

have an initial stretch on install. You must make certain the tensioner arm is to the left of the 5mm mark and
that the gap does not exceed 3.5mm.

Remove the three screws from the tensioner bracket and loosen the screw in the vertical slot 1/4 turn.
This allows the X-axis tensioner to drop down and rotate clockwise generating additional slack in the
