I F*cked up.
I pulled the X-axis covers on my SQT15MS to clean behind it.
Then I pulled the steel scraper from the rail, cause that was filthy too.
Then I discovered the screws holding the scraper in place also hold the end cap that keeps the balls in it...
Thankfully its only one corner. Whats my next step?
Pop the entire truck off from underneath, and see what it looks like when I load up the balls?
Put a dab of light grease on the balls and start pushing them back in?(Or drop them in from the top)
If you're missing 5/100 balls is it going to jam anything up?
Anyways, some advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm not too worried about wearing out the rails more quickly with a few less balls as they're on their way out already.
Thanks,
Ed
