Ch 0214 / 44
Step 02.14 — Fit the deck support clips¶
Step 14 of 44 · Chapter 02 — Z drives, Z idlers, Z rails, deck panel
Parts:
-
deck_support_3mm_x8×8 · bin 02-deck
Do:
- Push a clip's tab end-on into the inward-facing slot of a bottom-frame extrusion above the panel edge, then twist it 90° so the ledge lies over the panel.
- Two per side, evenly spaced (verify on bench).
Check
Eight ledges over the panel edge, all the same thickness variant; the panel cannot be lifted out of the frame.
What you're looking at
One deck_support clip: a small T-tab, about 20 × 14.5 × 5.8 mm, with a ledge. The manual never draws them. Once the printer is upright, the panel hangs under the bed extrusions and these eight ledges carry it until Ch 09 bolts it.
Caution
Rev D+ / LDO: this step is not in the official manual at all. LDO adds it here: "This is a good time to install the deck supports." Doing it later means the deck comes out and the frame comes partly apart (§5.2 W4). src
