I'm beyond frustrated with getting the x-axis covers back on after replacing the wiper media. Lipping the vertical face under the next covers vertical face, then trying to get the box corners into the c-channel lips is proving difficult. I can get one side in with the help of a small screwdriver, but then either the vertical face pops out or when I try to do the other side box corner the successful one pops out. Any tips? This is driving me insane, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and this is on a HAAS VF-3.
 
what a pain

I had to unbolt the way cover from the table, should be two cap screws. With the end cover loose, you should be able to tilt the covers up and slide them together.

Enjoy

Ken
