Description

I was following the configuration instructions, and when I tried to do the rough homing after turning on the LED and parking the heads, it flew towards the front and slammed into it and was grinding for a few seconds. The limit switch wasn't being pressed. I adjusted the gold screw that it should hit.

A few safety checks at the end of the electrical and repeated at the start of the configuration would be great for things like that.

Research direction

Start with the configuration instructions, especially the rough homing step, and the electrical safety-check section mentioned in the issue. Done means the instructions explicitly confirm limit-switch operation and repeat the relevant safety checks before configuration and homing.
