21 – Assembling, Wiring and Mounting the Hot End Assembly
21.1 – For this step, you’ll need all the components for the hot end. This includes the Hot End
Spacer (P/N: 68324), Hot End Adapter Plate (P/N: 68328), Bowden Hot End PTC Adapter (P/N: 68316),
Feed Tube Insulator, Heater Clamp, Nozzle (P/N: 71541), the Bowden Tube fitting, a thermistor, 2 power
resistors and finally, the Teflon Liner.
21.2 – The Hot End will come pre-assembled for the most part, but we’ll have to disassemble it a
bit to complete the assembly. First, remove the knurled nut on the Bowden Hot End PTC Adapter and
then slide the Hot End Adapter Plate & Hot End Spacer over the PTC Adapter. Replace the knurled nut,
just a bit more (and I mean a
little
bit more) than finger tight.
