TL4100 Top 5 Build Tips
1: Top Plate
When assembling the top plate, align the top of the top plate brackets with the top of
the rods. This can be done by placing a hard flat object (such as a ruler) on top of the
plate and pushing down until the rods are touching the ruler. Then tighten the screws.
The top plate will then sit above the rods. If the holes in the top plate do not line up
exactly with the holes in the top plate brackets, the rods may be pushed out of
alignment and cause the carriages to jam. Lifting the top plate by 5mm also gives you
5mm more of travel for your calibration screws, which makes calibration less likely to
damage the bed.
