Step 3:
Note the letters on the individual acrylic pieces and then remove the protective covering from both sides of
the pieces. While the front and back covers share similar pieces there are some differences. The sides, top and
bottom are thicker for the front than for the back. This is to accommodate the build plate while keeping the
enclosure total size at the tightest dimensions. It may be easier to remove the protective coverings as you do
each part if you feel more comfortable working that way but it is important that the protective covering be
removed before assembly of each part since they interlock into one another preventing you from removing it
later. Use either your finger nail or a flat razor to pull up on the the edge of the protective covering. Take your
time and pull slowly to get any additional stray pieces.
Step 4:
Warning!!! Remove the SD card from the printer before continuing. Gently set the printer on its
side with the control box flat on the work surface. It is a good idea to lay down a towel or something soft to
prevent scratching the side of the printer. Install Part Q on the side using the 4 M4-8mm bolts and M4 square
nuts. Slide 2 square nuts in from the bottom of the machine into the extrusion on each side. Tighten down the
bolts just enough to prevent slippage. The cut outs on the sides allow for the arm and filament guide to
completely fold up or down.
