Hi, I cant seem to get full length of 210mm for the Y axis movement :/ I've set everything according to the manual but no joy

According to the manual this distance must be 9.1CM, however if I set this to 9.1 the end stop screw doesnt reach the end stop and causes the table to go out of its limit
If i move this distance to something like 10,5CM the end stop screw now reaches the end stop correctly but I loose a good amount of Y printing size and also dont have the full 210mm printing size for Y as BQ says (215 x 210 x 180 )

It seems that the belt is the limiting factor, how it's assembled , limits the range
What am i doing wrong ? Anyone with this model can tell me what's wrong ? Did you set it up like the manual says (9.1cm ) and get all the 210mm range for Y and also does the end stop screw reaches the end stop fine ?

How should i be able to get full 215x210 if the corners have the screws ?
What am I missing here ?
Bed size
The best I can get is make X0 Y0 on the bottom left corner (where the red line starts)
but that only gives me about 200mm for Y range
