5. Attach Top
Before you tackle the top, now is a good time to
install the
cross beam that adds support to the top
in case you want to put the spool holder on top.
(See beam circled in red in the illustration to the
right.) It should just slide into the slots as shown
before
you attach the top.
If you don’t see slots at
the top one of the sides is probably on upside
down.
Note that until the top is connected security the
beam may fall out of place. That’s fine, just put it
back before tightening the mid-corner connectors.
With the beam in place, it’s time to remove the
plastic.
First lay the top on a flat surface as
shown in the instruction video.

Be careful, as the area around the filament slit
will crack if handled roughly.
The top has a front, back, and left to right. This is
because it overhangs the front which is twice as
thick.
The right side of the filament slit is closer to
the right edge than the left.
Use access through the
doors to attach the top of the enclosure using M4
12mm screws.
If you attach the top and there’s overhang in the
back, then it's attached backwards.
