About this model

This Y-belt tensioner is designed to keep the belt pulley in the same position as the original non-adjusting mounting bracket, in order to maintain the correct geometry along the Y axis. There are two adjusting screws to allow proper alignment of the belt and prevent lateral movement. Printing this with a brim is recommended. See this link for a pad, designed by ClydeFrog04, that fits under this tensioner and protects the acrylic from being marred by the screws:
