I was gifted a full kit maslow CNC for my birthday in Feb 2020, and I have just gotten to opening the box and setting it up. However, I ran into a couple of problems,

1. The Router /z-axis motor shaft coupler seems to be too small to fit the shaft. It fits the router (Ridgid R2202) just fine. I saw some posts earlier that indicated that just use a drill bit and make the hole larger. But I am wary of that solution as, if I were to use a larger drill bit then it would be lose.  
Has anyone had this particular problem ?

2. I think they missed packing the Packet 3 which consists of the s hooks, pulleys and sprockets . Since its been over 6 months would it be possible to get any assistance with getting those parts ?

Thanks in advance for any assistance for this.

for the s hooks and sprockets that they attach to, go with a clothsline pully  
from your local big box hardware store, it just works better.
