Securing Cables Along the X-Rail
Y-Axis motor and proximity switch cables are secured to
the back side of the X-rail using cable tie mounts and cable
ties.
1.
Use the 3mm hex key and one (1) M4x6mmm
socket head cap screw to attach each of the five
(5) cable tie mounts to the upper M4 screw holes
across the back of the X-rail. Position the cable tie
mounts vertically. See
Figure 9

.
2.
Use five (5) cable ties to secure the cables to the
five (5) cable tie mounts along the back of the
X-rail. See
Figure 9-6
. The cable tie mounts have
two attachment points. For the center cable tie
mount, use only one of the two attachment points
to secure the Y-cables; the other will be used to
secure the router’s power cord.
3.
Trim the ends of all the cable ties with a pair of
flush cut pliers or scissors (not included).
Securing the Cables at the Z-Plus
The X/Z-cables are bundled neatly behind the Z-Plus.
1.
Collect the X-cables and neatly bundle them
behind the X-motor. See
Figure 9-7
.
2.
Use one cable tie to secure the X-cables to the
first link of the drag chain and a second to keep
the bundle tidy.
3.
Collect the Z-cables and neatly bundle them
behind the Z-motor. See
Figure 9-7
.
4.
Use two (2) cable ties to secure the Z-cables.
5.
Use flush cut pliers or scissors (not included) to
trim the ends of all the cable ties

PRO TIP:
Neatly securing cables is more of an art
than a science. Important things to note are:
It’s ok to loop
cables in tight circles, but avoid
kinks. Give the cables slack next to motors,
switches, and plugs, and ensure they won’t get
snagged on a corner or sucked into a motor.
