Were can I find the assembly manual

My number has come up on my order for the XL, and I have to chose the # of extruders (I originally chose 2, but I might go with 5), and whether it should come a a kit or fully assembled.

I have an MK3/S and MK4 that came as a kit, that that worked out fine (I did some mods along the way, including using Loctite on some screws).  My question is should I get the XL as a kit or fully assembled?  What is involved with assembling the XL?

I dred using an on-line assembly manual.

Thanks in advance.

RE: Were can I find the assembly manual

Hi @steve-4.  If you've already assembled an MK3 of any variant AND an MK4 you'll have no issues assembling the XL.  There are a few potential "gotcha" steps but all things considered, not bad at all.  For an assembly manual as far as I know it's only online.  Consider that a good thing though because the comments can make the difference between moving forward in the wrong direction, or not.  For the money saved, most definitely worth experiencing the assembly process IMO.  Also, it seems a lot of the issues you'll read about on here seem to be more common with the pre-assembled versions.  Maybe something to that, maybe not.  Good luck with whatever you choose!

As you can see lot is preassembled so it is a pretty short process (maybe 2/3rds the time to assembled the MK3). As already said you should follow the manual, read the comments if unsure and take your time.
