Parts: none.
Do: Set the probe so its tip sits about 6 mm below the plastic part. This is a starting position only; it gets fine-tuned during bring-up in Ch 13. Then fully tighten the two M3×30.
Check
6 mm ±1 mm, measured with the caliper depth blade. The probe does not move when you push on it.
Helper Reads the caliper depth aloud while you slide the probe to 6 mm.
What you're looking at
6 mm of probe standing below the plastic is a starting position, not a calibration. It puts the sensing face where it will see the bed with margin to spare. The real trigger offset is measured during bring-up in Ch 13.
