    Hi all

    One of my tool changer bearings has developed a ticking noise. It doesn't seem to affect the accuracy of the print but it is annoying! I can see exactly which one it is since I get the noise when the printer is moving in only one diagonal direction. It's one of the idlers at the back left hand corner. Are they easy to change?

    thanks

    Dan

    I’m happy to buy new bearings - can anyone tell me which ones to buy please?

    I assume they can be changed by simply unbolting them. Is there anything else I need to look out for?
