⬢This manual is for the Enclosure without the external printer display mount, as the required parts are no longer included in the package (from the end of May 2024).

⬢To mount the display externally, print the required parts first and then follow the appropriate assembly manual: Original Prusa Enclosure (external display mount)

⬢To confirm your package: check the ENCLOSURE 1/2 Plastic Parts package label to see if it includes the ENCLOSURE LCD SUPPORT or ENCLOSURE XLCD SUPPORT parts.

⬢Needle-nose or cutting pliers (to trim the zip ties)

⬢Phillips screwdriver PH2

⬢Cardboard box at least 15 x 15 x 8 cm (e.g. Prusament box)

⬢Snip-off knife or a pocket knife

⬢Piece of cloth (to protect the heatbed, min. 15 x 15 xm)

⬢3.0mm Allen key (MK3S+ Silver PSU only)

⬢All the boxes and bags including parts for the build are labelled.

⬢The FASTENERS A and FASTENERS B bags include an extra spare of each part contained in the bag. The amount of spare parts is always written on the label under the individual part. This number is included in the total number of each type of part.

The amount of the nylon rivet spare might slightly differ, but never less than the amount indicated on the label.

⬢Fasteners on the labels has a scale of 1:1 and can be used to identify parts :-)

The numbers in parentheses below the fastener picture indicate the number of extra pieces added to the SPARE package.

⬢For the most common screws and nuts you can also use the enclosed letter, which contains Prusa Cheatsheet on the other side.

You can download it from our site help.prusa3d.com/cheatsheet. Print it at 100 %, don't rescale it, otherwise, it won't work.

⬢From the experience of building Original Prusa printers, we know that Haribo Bears are an integral and important part of every kit. Although it's not entirely about building a printer now, we've got your safety in mind, and added some amount of gummy bears to your kit as well.

⬢Open the package and arrange the gummy bears according to the picture. Don't eat anything now! Always wait for instructions.

Your package might contain fewer bears. In such a case, run immediately to the nearest candy store! The exact dosage is absolutely critical!!!

⬢Eat the first gummy bear to boost your energy. Really, just one!

For a better handling, it is recommended to prepare a clean workbench with a space of at least 0.8 m x 0.8 m (31.5 in x 31.5 in). With access from two sides or more.

We're recommending a bright light above your workbench. Some parts inside the enclosure are dark and inadequate light could make a very difficult procedure.

⬢Always read all the instructions at the current step first. This will help you to understand, what you need to do. Don't cut or trim unless you are told to!!!

⬢Don't follow pictures only! It is not enough, the written instructions are as brief as they can be. Read them.

⬢Read the comments from the other users. They are a great source of ideas. We read them too and based on your feedback improve the manual and the entire assembly.

⬢Use a reasonable force. The printed parts are tough, but not unbreakable. If it doesn't fit, check your approach twice.

⬢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.

⬢The instructions in this manual are intended for the original injection molded spool holder ("T" design) shipped with your printer.
