Add a washer to the screw, to avoid damaging the printed part.

Insert the screw through the hole on the opposite side to the hexagonal cavity.

Thread the hex nut onto the screw and tighten the screw.

When the nut is fully seated, remove the screw being careful not to dislodge the nut.

Locate the extruder motor so the wires face to the left. Rotate the shaft so that the flat side is facing up.

Mount the Bondtech pulley on the extruder motor shaft so that the geared portion is furthest from the motor body. Make sure that the set screw is in contact with the flat portion of the shaft.

The motor shaft should protrude from the pulley by approximately 1mm.

Secure the set screw to avoid the gear moving. We will fine tune the position later.

Verify the orientation of the motor cables.

Secure the extruder motor to the extruder_body using two M3x25 screws.

Verify the orientation of the motor cables.

Insert three M3 hex nuts

Insert two M3 nylock hex nuts

Verify that the M3x25mm screws are snug

Slide a M3 square nut into the extruder_body.

Use a M3x10 screw to attach the extruder_body to the x_carriage.

Use a M3x40 screw with a M3 washer to attach the extruder_body to the x_carriage.

Insert the longer magnet (20x6x2mm) inside the filament_sensor_lever.

Place the smaller magnet (10x6x2mm) so it is attracted to the filament_sensor_lever. The smaller magnet should be on the flat side of the lever.

Remove the smaller magnet from the filament_sensor_lever and insert it with the same orientation into the extruder_body. DO NOT insert the filament_sensor_lever yet.

Insert the steel ball in the dedicated pocket of the extruder_body.

Verify that the steel ball is rolling smoothly inside its pocket.

Insert the filament_sensor_lever.

Test if the filament_sensor_lever is moving correctly with a piece of filament.

Carefully secure the Prusa IR sensor with a M2x8 screw. Do not over-tighten.

Adjust the Prusa IR sensor to make sure that it is parallel to the border of the pocket. Finish tightening the screw; it only needs to be tightened sufficiently to hold the sensor in place

Verify with a piece of filament that the filament_sensor_lever is working smoothly.

Install and secure the filament_sensor_cover with a M3x10 screw.

Locate the Bondtech idler gear. It is the one that has NO set screw.

Lubricate the needle bearings with a dab of lithium based grease

Slide the two Bondtech needle bearings into the Bondtech idler gear.

Place the idler gear into the extruder_idler. Note the orientation of the teeth.

Insert the shaft from the direction shown in the diagram. Fully insert the shaft, it should be flush with the printed part or the the idler will not close properly.

Insert a square nut in the lateral pocket.

Slide a M3 washer on a M3x40 screw.

Insert the screw into the top, left hole of the x_carriage, until it protrudes just enough for you to place a M3 washer on it.

Carefully place a M3 washer on the end of the screw.

Carefully slide the extruder_idler into the opening, taking care not to displace the M3 washer and insert the screw to act as the hinge for the idler door.

Gently tighten the screw into the extruder motor, the extruder_idler must rotate freely.

You should have prepared the PTFE tube during guide 1. Preflight check and disassembly. Make sure you have followed those steps.

Push the collet (black plastic part) down and fully insert the PTFE tube. Whilst pressing the PTFE tube into the hotend, lift the collet upwards, to lock the PTFE tube in place

Insert the hotend_collet_clip. This prevents the collet from loosening and keeps the PTFE tube locked in place.

Insert the hot end into the extruder_body with correct orientation of the heater and thermistor wires.

Note the position of the heater and thermistor wires.

Insert one M3 square nut

Insert one M3 hex nut

Insert one M3 hex nut

Insert two M3x40 screws and tighten them alternately to lock the hotend in place

Carefully route the motor wires as shown in the figure.

Verify that the wires sit correctly in the channel.

This surface will be touching the extruder_body. It is the side with the manufacturers label on it. The wires come out from this side and the fan should be oriented so that they point towards the rear of the extruder.

Carefully route the hotend fan wires in the channel of the x_carriage.

Attach the hotend fan with four screws. Follow the screw type according to your hotend fan:

Sunon & Delta : M3x16 button head screws

Noctua : M3x14 socket head screws

Open the extruder_idler

Insert a piece of 1.75 mm filament through the extruder_body into the PFTE tube.

Center the filament on the drive teeth carefully, using the Bondtech set screw.

Tighten the set screw. Don't tighten too much as you will damage the thread.

Remove the filament.

This is a good time to put a dab of lithium based grease on the gears. Make sure that you do not put any grease on the drive teeth.

Make sure that you have completely removed the filament from the extruder_body.

Slide an extruder spring onto a M3x40 screw.

Close the extruder_idler door.

Slide the screw with the extruder spring into the extruder_body.

Tighten the screw into the extruder_idler until the head is flush with the surface of the body.

Slide a M3 washer on a M3x18 screw. Do the same for another M3x18 screw.

Attach the print fan using the M3x18 screws

Place a square nut in the extruder_body for the pinda_mount.

Slide a M3x10 screw into the pinda_mount and engage the square nut, but do not tighten yet.

Insert the PINDA into the mount so that the sensor end is approximately 12mm below the bottom of the pinda_mount. Tighten the screw just enough to keep the PINDA from falling out. The optimum PINDA position will be adjusted later.

Route the PINDA wires as indicated

Route the print fan wires as indicated

Secure the wires with a zip tie. Be sure to leave some slack since the PINDA position will need to be adjusted later.

This is the preferred example of how the PINDA and print fan cables should be wired.

Make sure you have broken the support for the nozzle_fan_duct.

Insert the print shroud. If necessary, slightly unscrew the print fan.

Use an M3x10 screw to attach the shroud and secure the print fan.
