2 part fans are not required but it doesn't hurt anything to include


Assembly

Render of the RoBo3D Mount

1) Assemble the Cyclops or Chimera following the instructions on the main Wiki Page

2) Print 1 of each of the parts from the thingiverse page

3) Remove the LM8UU bearings from the existing carriage and press them in using a bearing press, a bench vice, or a C-clamp

4) Insert the X endstop screw into the available hole

5) Secure the Cyclops/Chimera to the carriage using the supplied mounting screws

6) Run the fan, thermistor wire(s), and heater wire(s) through the open slot in the carriage

7) Carefully insert the fan holder allowing the heater, fan, and thermistor wires to run up the center of the holder. Use 2 M3x13mm screws and 2 M3 nuts to secure the fan shroud to the carriage.

8) Secure the Fan shroud and 40mm Parts fan to the Fan Holder running the fan wires through the slot.

9) Insert the carriage onto the X axis and reattach the timing belt using Zip ties.
