It is taut with some "give" allowing me to pinch it, it seems like the issue is with the motor rotation

Okay - I'll see if I can loosen it

The Y Axis moves fine but the X Axis requires significant effort to move and gets harder towards the end that was producing the grinding/slow down

RE: Shift/Grinding on X Axis on first print after calibration/Unboxing
I rea the Print Leveling calibration today and it starts fine on position 1 (lower left corner) but barely travels from position 4 to 5 and then on the return starts 6 where 7 should be which results in the extruder attempting to go off the end of the plate for number 10. Is there a way to reset the firmware or something?

Shift/Grinding on X Axis on first print after calibration/Unboxing
Just got my Pulse D-111 printer, went through the calibration steps as instructed, worried that I set the nozzle too low, re-did Z Calibration and noticed nozzle was testing halfway to the left side of the plate (looking at printer from the front) from the center point. On first print, first layer heads straight off the end of the plate and there is some grinding in the belt motor trying to come back the opposite direction. The plate movement (Y Axis) seems fine. I noticed that the Z Screws were slightly off so I manually rotated one until it was the same height as the other. Re started the test print and the exact same thing happened.
This is my first 3D Printer, first time doing anything like this, so looking for any help I can get. I am a fast learner but do not know where to start. I can provide pictures/videos.
Thanks!
