Preparing the Guide Tube for the Asteroid Tool Head





Tools & Supplies Needed:

Guide Tube

2 black/green stoppers

3 Zip Ties

Micro cutters

Instructions:


It is helpful to:

* Turn on the kiosk lights.

* Remove the filament spool and handle from kiosk.




1.0 Push the stopper towards you so that there is about 10 cm (4 in) from the end.

1.1 Add the second stopper and push so that there is a small gap between the two stoppers.

2.0 Thread a zip tie through the hole in the cabinet and tighten the zip tie around the tube between the stoppers. Then cut any remaining zip tie tail.

2.1 Push stoppers together so that it “sandwiches” the zip tie.






3.0 Pull the silver key chain ring closer to the center of the tube so that there is 40cm (16 in) between the stoppers and the silver ring.



4.0 Add zip ties on either side of the key chain ring and cut any remaining zip tie tails.


Congrats!!! The guide tube is set up!
