Y Lead Screw Vibrations

When the Longmill is running, watch the leadscrews and see if they wobble while in motion. When the machine is doing rapid movements, the leadscrews can “whip” which can cause intense vibration. Make sure the leadscrews are placed under tension by snugging up the ACME locking nuts and confirm that the v-wheels are adjusted to hold firmly but can still be rotated by hand.
