[title] Prep Z Linear Rails
[* 1] Prep the Z axis mgn12 linear rails in the same fashion as for the X axis rails.
[* 1] Select 4 evenly space holes in the rail. Place (1) m3 x 6mm button head bolt into the hole if you have Misumi rails. Use m3 x 8mm button head bolts if you have LDO rails. Loosely thread on (1) m3 nut to the bolt.
+[* 9] For the ZLT you should use (8) bolts spaced evenly, instead of (4) per rail.
[* 1] Repeat for all (3) Z linear rails.
[* 9] It is highly recommended to use a bit of masking tape to keep the carriage from sliding off of the linear rail.
