Assembly

Attach the Apus 2 to the adapter using 2 m3x8 on the slightly thicker base holes, and the m3x5 on the other. (see photos)

Assemble the extruder block and rest of Archetype as normal.

If using the tool head board mount:

  1. Insert the heat set inserts

  2. Insert the piano wire into the provided hole

  3. Remove the Apus 2 face plate

  4. Attach the tool board mount to the Apus 2 using the m3x40, replacing the existing screw. Take care snapping the arm into place.

  5. Attach the tool board with the remaining two m3x8 screws using the printed spacers in between the PCB and mount.

  6. Wire up the tool board.

 

Changes Notes

April 1, 2025

Added a clamp to secure the top point of the tool board so it does not shake around.
