Question About First Run/Testing Phase

Hello,

My printer shipped with a weakened, and now broken, heater cartridge. As a result, i'm dead in the water until I can get a replacement next week.

I'm not really feeling too enthusiastic about completing the build knowing I cannot do anything until next week, but I did want to ask about the first start up self-check.

If I were to finish the printer and get it completed without the heater cartridge, would the self check allow me to check my frame square, bed level, components check, belt tension, etc? If this is the case I'll go ahead and finish the build and just add the heater when it arrives.
