XA Assembly required parts & hardware bag

Wire Harness Restraints These six "zip ties" will be used to secure the wiring later on.

Bottom View - All six in place, note how they are positioned with long ends towards the outside edge to make it easier to tighten them later.

Mounting the X Axis Vat Slider Motor

Note the Motor Guard positioning 7

The nylon spacer should rotate freely on the screw's shoulder after it's been tightened securely. TIP: Use a drop of lightweight lubricating oil on the screw's shoulder to lubricate the nylon spacer.

Insert the two set screws until they are flush with the outside surface. Correct spacing between the motor and the surface. Note that the motor shaft has a "flat", which should be aligned with one of the two set screws in the motor arm.

Use the provided hex wrench to securely tighten BOTH set screws. Gently turn the arm to align the end towards the left side as shown.

Mounting the Z Axis Stepper Motor The Z Axis stepper motor is suspended under the X Axis plate using the four spacers.

Note wire alignment, tighten all 4 screws securely.

Use the hex wrench to secure the motor coupler. Motor shaft should be flush with couper as shown. Z Axis Stepper Moto Installed

Attaching the Vat Table Slide Track Both Tracks ready to attach. TIP! - Lubricate the threads with soap or grease to prevent binding. 14

Back track in place, screws only hand tightened

Vat Table in place, note motor arm with nylon spacer in table slot. Front track ready to mount. Front track in place, ready to tighten screws. Use a hex wrench to gently tighten the four screws on the "slot" side and the two on opposite side, do not overtighten. Only hand tighten the other two screws as they will be removed later when we attach the sweeper assembly. 16

Attaching the Manual Positioning Toggles and Harness

Completed. Note the use of the 3 front zip ties to hold the harness in place. Excess has been clipped off.

Attaching the Arduino UNO & B9Creator Shield PCB

Four screws inserted from the top with nylon standoffs in place. TIP: Use tape to hold the screws in place during this step. Mounted with four nuts securely tightened.

Shield after plugging into the UNO. Pay close attention to the shield's "leg" pins and how they engage the UNO receptacles , it will only align correctly in one position.

Connecting the Wiring Harnesses Use a zip tie to secure the wire bundle to the Motor Guard 26
