If I am aiming to use a couple of 20T HTD5 pulleys, and not allowing for potential pulley change later, what kind of adjustment should I allow for belt tolerance, stretch, fitting, etc? The steppers will be mounted on plates with slotted holes for fixing and with due allowance for the central boss. Nominal pulley centre-centre distance is 115mm. I've never used these things before so not sure what a sensible range of adjustment should be.
