Tap to enlarge
Parts:
- build plate, magnet applied ×1 · Build Plate box (carton 2)
Do:
- Two hands, plate flat, magnet up, cables at the back.
- Lay the three leads toward the left bed extrusion, none through the deck.
- Lower the plate onto the four thumb nuts, cables clear.
Check
Plate rests on all four thumb nuts, none knocked over. All three leads loose above the deck, none through it, none trapped.
Helper Holds the three leads toward the left extrusion while you lower the plate.
What you're looking at
Manual p.60: the plate coming down onto its four spacers, cables first. This kit skips the page's wire passthrough: the plate's three short leads stay above the deck and end at the bed WAGO breakout on the left bed extrusion.
Caution
Rev D+ / LDO: skip the manual's wire passthrough. The plate's leads end at LDO's bed WAGO mount above the deck, so the plate lifts off. Only Ch 10's extension leads go below: Layout v3 L, N, PE via the round hole, TH via the notch; LDO layout all four via the hole. LDO § Wiring the bed heater
