    I'm told that is the new design. It is to prevent sawdust from building up.

    Sounds good to me, as long it does not allow slippage.

    Change out Y tension assb. Very easy, I did Y test and when the truck got to the home Position to start the Y test, it just sat there with the Y belt running for a few sec. then gave me a error E12 0353.
    any ideas.

    You might need to put more tension on the belt then. Do yo still have the old one or have an old Z truck? The one on the Z truck is the same.

    Yes, that little clip holding down the belt is very important that it "clicks" when setting. Other wise as you found out, it don't work. Screw can be as tight as can be, but if that clip is not in the correct position, no go.

    The new pulley makes a lot of sense. The tensioner is just a take up and an idler pulley and has nothing to do with the drive action except to keep belt tension. As saw dust builds up in the belt teeth it is rotated around the idler wheel, if there are teeth on the idler it can cause a few issues like higher belt tension applying extra stress on the drive motor. No teeth no build up, the drive motor will have the toothed sprocket, which is still able to feel the effects of dust build up but has to be toothed to keep the axis true.
