Introduction

Be very careful to not over tighten the nuts and bolts on the plastic parts, otherwise they

may crack. Everything should easily fit together, and so if it isn’t, take a step back and

re-read the instructions.

  1. If the wires in your kit have white printed tags, please ignore this step. Each wire, at the connector end has a coloured clip with a number. This colour and number identifies this wire. Please see key below.

  2. Please see the key in Step 1 for Wire Identifications, the Limit Switches are pre-attached to the Switch Wires. Carefully attach the (0)(Black) X-Axis Limit Switch to the X-Axis Limit Switch Mount using 2 x M3 Plastite Screw - 8mm's. The M3 Plastite Screw - 8mm's self thread, the best technique is to screw in a couple of turns, then back out, and then back in a few more turns than last time, and so forth, until the Limit-Switch is firmly secured.
