Install the middle section

  1. Remove any temporary bolts holding the motor to the bottom plate while keeping the motor and pulley aligned.
  2. Place the standard middle section between the motor and bottom plate.
  3. Insert the four M5 × 35 mm bolts from the motor side through the middle section.
  4. Fit the M5 nuts at the back of the motor.
  5. Tighten the bolts gradually in a cross pattern so the middle section seats evenly.
  6. Confirm the pulley and belt remain aligned and rotate freely by hand.

All four fasteners are secure, the housing sits square, and the belt tracks without rubbing the printed body.
