The main body is made hollow to ensure filament savings.
The screws are need to fix the front and back axles which are also marked.
The front loader assembly is made up of pins of same size but there could be tolerances issues when you print. So I insist that you first test print a pin and try the fit and accordingly scale down or up the pin.
Supports should be provided as required.
Appreciate the makes uploads. Open for suggestions.
