    • INSTALL GEAR, BOLT AND FIRST BEARING

    • Install 4 x M8 washers onto the hobbed bolt then a 608 bearing.

    • Once installed, does the hobbing on the bolt line up with the small hole going through the extruder body?

    • If you need to adjust it's location, you can add either a 0.50mm or 1.0mm shim washer to get the correct spacing.

    • Does the hobbing line up with the hole in the center?
