Note that adding the end cap for the X gantry screw thread (opposite end to the stepper motor) is not referenced here - it is added after the screw threads have been tensioned - you can add the cap here to protect the end of the thread . The cap is mounted using the four remaining threaded holes in the X end plate. The cap has one side with two ‘U’ cut outs that go around the heads of the bolts that were use to join the plate to the C beam.
Note that adding the end caps for the Y ACME screws is not referenced here - these are only added after the screws have been tensioned - but you can add them here to protected the ends . The caps are mounted using the four remaining threaded holes in the Y end plate. The cap has one side with two ‘U’ cut outs that go around the heads of the bolts that were use to join the plate to the C beam.
threading the PSU output cable through the drag chain means that your PSU will be at the rear of the machine. You might want to consider whether this fits your installation beforehand.
Fpr clarity - the PSU is not attached to the frame. Consider where your tour is going to be installed and whether you want the PSU switch in easy reach. This may mean that you dom’t want to thread the PSU output cable through the Y Axis drag chain.
Take care to ensure that where the cable is caught by the cable tie that its on the edge of the plate. If it rolls round on to the corner or the face, the insulation can get ‘pinched’ and can split.
This step doesn’t say in *which* hole to mount the antenna. The answer is in the corner hole on the long side with the slot for the cables - with the antenna on the same side as the duet card.

Make sure the limit cables (black and red) are underneath the motor cables and don’t get pinched by the cable tie
