<p>No additional gcode nor firmware change required!</p> <p>Absolute and relative positions of MINDA and nozzle are stock. PLEASE make sure to go through the entire Calibration Wizard, including setting MINDA height, after installing this thing.</p> <p>I have been testing this thing using Prusament PLA/PETG for over a month to insure that the front facing flow approach works. The Mini does not have space for the traditional side mounting flow without additional gcode and/or x-Carriage modifications.</p> <p>There are two adapters. One for the Groovemount and one for the Screwmount. The Fan Reducer works for both.</p> <ul> <li>Follow Prusa's guide to disassemble the stock Mini Hotend</li> <li>Reuse the top heatsink and MINDA mount screws as-is</li> <li>Use the bottom heatsink and fan mount screws to mount the fan to the reducer</li> <li>Use the Copperhead zip-tie screw to mount the reducer to the heatsink</li> <li>Use annotated pictures for additional install steps</li> </ul> <p>Additional hardware:</p> <ul> <li>PTFE tubing: Length dependent on extruder attachment method</li> <li>3mm hex nut for top of adapter (should have in extra parts bag)</li> <li>IF using stock extruder mount, brass compression ring (also in extra parts bag)</li> <li><p>IF using Festo style extruder mount, PASS-THROUGH pneumatic fitting</p> <p>More to add...</p> </li> </ul>
