⬢We have designed enhancements that are not shipped by default in the kit, but you can print them out and add them to the enclosure during assembly. Fasteners are already included in the kit.
Print out the parts before you start assembly.
⬢To see the full list of the parts, please visit our collection at Printables.com.
⬢Carefully pull the printer out of the MINI Enclosure with the base facing backwards. Be EXTRA CAREFUL when doing this:
Ensure the X-end and aluminum Z-axis profile pass through the right and left cutouts of the front opening. Use EXTRA CAUTION to avoid damaging the printer or enclosure.
⬢Hold the heatbed with your left hand to prevent it from sliding down and getting damaged on the bottom plate.
⬢During pulling out the printer, look carefully at all sides of the printer to ensure that nothing is in the way (e.g., cables, motors, etc.).
Ensure that no parts of the printer touch the side panels to avoid scratches.
⬢Tear open the filter bag and remove the HEPA filter.
Handle the filter with caution. If the HEPA surface (the white pleated surface) is damaged, the filter will lose its efficiency. Protect your hands when you take off the used filter and put it in a plastic bag. A saturated filter is not recyclable.
⬢Guide the zip tie thought the perforation in the top panel near the filtration.
⬢Using this zip tie, secure the filtration cable. Do not overtighten the zip tie, as it may cause fatal damage to the cable.
⬢In the same way, secure the cable to the four perforations in the left rear profile. Do not overtighten the zip ties, as it may cause fatal damage to the cable.
Exercise caution when handling anything inside the enclosure. There are sharp metal plates, so avoid injury.
⬢Guide the cable along the rear side of the Enclosure and secure it using three zip ties through the perforations. Do not overtighten the zip ties, you can damage the cable.
⬢Guide the PSU cable along with the FAN cable on the left side of the Enclosure and secure it with the three zip-ties. Do not overtighten the zip ties, you can damage the cables.
⬢If you have installed the Advanced Filtration System, guide the filtration cable together with the PSU cable. Secure it with one extra zip tie in the left corner. Do not overtighten the zip tie, you can damage the cables.
⬢Connect the external PSU cable to the basic board from the left side.
⬢It is recommended to make a loop with the excess cable and secure it with a zip tie. This way, the cable will not get in the way. Do not overtighten the zip ties, you can damage the cable.
These steps are only for LED strip and Advanced filtration system owners only. The smaller PSU space is for those with additional PSU. Otherwise, skip to Door hinges: parts preparation
⬢PSU holder is not included in the package, you will need to print it out from Printables.com
Before starting printing, check what type of PSU you have!
⬢XP PSU: This PSU is larger than the Delta PSU. You will need the PSU-holder-XP.
⬢Delta PSU: This PSU is smaller than the XP PSU. You will need the PSU-holder-Delta.
These steps are only for LED strip and Advanced filtration system owners only. The smaller PSU space is for those with additional Delta PSU. Otherwise, skip to Installing the printer
⬢For the next steps, please prepare:
⬢PSU-holder (1x) this part is not included in the package, you will need to print it out fromPrintables.com
⬢Add-on PSU-holder-A (1x) this part is not included in the package, you will need to print it out fromPrintables.com
⬢Add-on PSU-holder-B (1x) this part is not included in the package, you will need to print it out fromPrintables.com
⬢Carefully insert the printer inside the enclosure with its base facing forward. When doing so, be EXTRA CAREFUL to:
Ensure the X-end and aluminum Z-axis profile pass through the right and left cutouts of the front opening. Use EXTRA CAUTION to avoid damaging the printer or enclosure.
⬢Hold the heatbed with your left hand to prevent it from sliding down and getting damaged on the bottom plate.
⬢During insertion, carefully watch all sides of the printer to ensure nothing is in the way (e.g., cables, motors, etc.).
⬢Carefully place the printer on its feet. We will adjust the exact position later on.
Ensure that no parts of the printer touch the side panels to avoid scratches.
⬢That's it! Well done. You have successfully installed the Advanced filtration system in your Original Prusa MINI Enclosure. Now let's put it to the test.
⬢On the Basic board cover, press the FILTER button.
