e. Move the z-axis to a spot comfortable for working (I like to have it positioned
in the middle as shown below).
f. Look to the back side of the upper gantry, where the X-axis bearing rail, and
circuit board is located. This is where the Z arm is attached and where the
adjustment will be made as shown below.

g. Loosen all 4 screws but do not remove them. The 2 screws on the right side are
3mm Allen screws, and the 2 on the left are 4mm allens.
h. *This step is easier with the help of someone to hold the arm* Straighten the
arm perfectly straight, so the bracket is flush to the arm.
i. When you have the bracket flush, and the arm looks as straight as possible,
tighten the screws as tight as you can without stripping them
