Syd_Khaos - Thanks for the instructions, they proved helpful. For the motor, I replaced the original m3x8mm screws with m3x12mm.

This is in your start code. What slicer are you using? In your start code, you need to modify it to just point to the right coordinates. Remember it's 230 x 150 with an origin in the center so front left corner would be X = -115, Y = -75. You want to give it some buffer so -100 and -70 are good. You also want to check on your head offsets. These values should be set in the firmware from the factory so not sure how you are having this problem. Did you install the extra fan on the left side of the head? Is that what's hitting the side of the machine? I didn't have to adjust for this.
Code:M135 T1 ; Load left extruder offsets G1 X-100 Y-70 F9000 ; Move to front left corner of bed

Anyone know if this fits the Qidi printer? Any change needed for the part fan?

I removed the screw that holds the lower left clear Plexiglas cover to the frame. I used a slightly longer screw in its place through the hole in the bottom start piece.

I did install the fan but my trouble started after the left extruder kept hitting the print.
I have just been using the makerbot desktop that came with the printer is there a way to change the G code in it? Or should I use something better.
I will shoot off a email to QIDI support tonight after work with a video of what's happening then spend the rest of tonight adjusting the extruder heads so they are even or the left one is slightly higher so I can print something that is about 6 inches wide without it hitting the print.
Thanks for all the help!

I attached mine on the lower screw, but both work, you just need more links for mine.
