[title] Hand Gearbox Housing - Rotor Alignment
[* 9] ***Rotor Alignment*** is very IMPORTANT! Follow the pictures carefully!
[* 11] Make sure there are ++''sharpie marks on the side of the Rotors''++ where it lines up with ***"T" and "B" on the rotors***
[* 3] Align the ***Side Mark of "T" Rotor*** to the ++"T" on the Housing++, and only insert Top Rotor into the housing.
[* 5] Align the ***Side Mark of "B" Rotor*** to the ++"B" on the Housing++, and insert the Bottom Rotor
[* 8] When aligned properly all 8 holes made by 2 rotors intersecting should have equal spacing
+[* 10] Verify that you can manually turn the eccentric shaft in the center and that the rotors smoothly turn inside the housing. Tight printing and misaligned rotors can cause the gearbox to jam.
