Then set the direct drive end to the side.

Remove the bottom two screws on the LGX extruder body
Once the screws are removed, take the direct drive part and set it to the side

3 Install the Heat Break and Hot Block

Place the hot block [PP-MP0337] inside the hot block jig, making sure the flat side is on the bottom.

Then thread the heat break [PP-MP0339] into the hot block and tighten with a 9mm wrench.

Once the heat break is secured to the hot block place the four post (part of the hot block hardware kit [HD-MS0100]) in the four corner holes in the hot block.

Now align the four corner posts and the heat break with the ACE cold block [PP-MP0341], make sure the side of the hot block that has the through holes is on the opposite side of the cold block.

Now using the torque wrench secure the hot block to the cold block using the screws from the hot block hardware kit.

Once the hot block is secured to the cold block thread the Mirco Swiss 1.75 nozzle [PP-MP0412] into the hot block then use the nozzle torque wrench to tighten the nozzle.

Then align the cold block with the LGX extruder and replace the two bottom screws that held the direct drive piece.
