Y axis not fully moving when printing

Hi,

I have the Pursa I3 pro b printer and I set it up and ran all the tests and it seemed to work perfectly. When I manually control the motors they all move to the correct location and home as they should. When I go to print something the X and Z axis work as they should but the Y axis doesn't move to the correct location causing the print to always be printed at the edge of the hotbed. When the Y motor tries to move it will move a bit but then it makes a grinding noise and doesn't move any further. Any ideas on what is going wrong and how I can fix it?
Any feedback would be great!

Thanks

If you screw too tight, the pulley will not rotate
