I just finisher lubing my printer but I may have done something wrong while putting the belt back. I’m not quite sure how to explain what I may have done wrong but it was while following this part:

Special Thanks to Adam M and Fred B from sovol FB group for correction: "Z lead screws don't need to lubricate because the SV06 uses POM nuts. It's okay if you do, but make sure you use a lubricant that will not degrade the POM. Also doing this will require you to check for debris/dust building up much more from that point onward.

If you think you might have made a mistake while putting the belt back on your printer, it's important to check it again to ensure that it has been installed properly. You may want to start by checking the tension of the belt, making sure that it is not too loose or too tight. You should also verify that the belt is properly aligned and that there are no twists or kinks in it.

If you are still having issues after verifying the above, I recommend checking if there is any abnormal noise, slippage, or if the printer is not printing correctly. These could be indications that the belt has not been installed correctly. If any of these things occur, you may need to retrace the steps you took to put the belt back on and possibly try again or even check with a professional if needed.

Also, if there are pictures or more details on what you think you may have done wrong, I can try to help you better.

if you look at the back of the printer at the Y axis motor shaft, is it spinning? it sounds like the teeth of the belt are skipping over the gear on the motor, can you tell?

i don't own a SV06 so i'm not 100% sure, but personally i would loosen the belt tensioner on the front of the machine to basically its last thread, insert the belt as tight as i could possibly do by hand, and then tighten the tensioner until the belt is tight enough that it puts resistance against a finger trying to touch the two parallel parts of the belt together

it looks alright in terms of how it's ran

I loosened the lightning rod and tightened it more (then tightened the rod)

Way better
