Stage 03 - Z-Axis

Prepare the Z-Axis Bracket

Two M5 x 8mm bolts

Two M5 T-Nuts

Orient as shown in the photos.

Fix the 2020 x 450mm Beam onto the Z-Axis Bracket.

Make sure the distance between the edge of the z-axis bracket and beam is 40mm for the Proforge 2 and 50mm for the Proforge 2S

Keep as straight and square as possible to the bracket. Use the part of the bracket that comes out to help gauge this.

Install the Endstop onto the Z-Axis Bracket.

Two M3 x 14mm bolts

Two M3 x 5mm Spacers

Two M3 Nyloc Nuts

Prepare the Z-axis support bracket with rollers and spacers:

Z-Axis Support Bracket

The support bracket should be oriented so that the circular cut out should be on the lower left.

Four M5 x 35mm Bolts

Six M5 x 6mm aluminium spacers. Four beneath the Roller Wheels, two above the Roller Wheels on the same side as the cutout

Roller Wheel Assembly

Two Eccentric Spacers. opposite side of the cutout

Match the direction of the eccentric spacer in third image.

Place carefully over the spacer/roller stack the main Z-Axis Bracket Assembly.

Match the photographs, the eccentric spacers should be on the side of the endstop.

Tighten firmly the Nuts that are holding together the rear side of the assembly.

Tighten loosely the nuts holding together the front of the assembly with the eccentric spacers.

The eccentric spacers should be able to turn freely - they will be tightened later.

Fix a NEMA 17 Motor onto the bracket as shown in the image.

Four M3 x 6mm bolts.

Orient the Motors cable connector upwards.
