IF you're upgrading from JellyBOX 1.2 or earlier, all the holes may not be pre-cut in your acrylic parts: Get a drill ready, with both an 8 mm drill bit (or bigger) and a 3 mm drill bit (or bigger; any that will work with 4” zip tie, which is 2.4mm thick)

-
Please follow the regular Y-Axis Assembly: 2. Belt Guide.

THEN COME BACK HERE!

-
Follow the regular Install the Y Assembly guide. The procedure is identical, just make sure you first route the wires through the bottom.

THEN COME BACK HERE.

Turn the printer upside-down and rest the wires on the right side.

-
-
Route the wires through the Bottom acrylic piece AND the Y-motor bracket. (If you are upgrading from JellyBOX 1.2, you will need to drill the holes in Bottom and Y-bracket to get the wires through. 10mm hole is the smallest you can get them through.)

-
First put on spiral wrap.
-
Then loosely catch the wires underneath two zip ties: One 5 pink zip tie close closer to the motor bracket, One 4 zip tie close to the middle of the bottom piece.
-
(If you are upgrading from JellyBOX 1.2, you will need to drill the holes for these zip ties. Don't worry, you don't need to be intensely precise.)
-
-
-
Pull the wire back and forth and test how it’s folding.
-
Watch the VIDEOS in the following two steps to see how the wires should be folding.
-
-
-
Finish up by snipping the zip ties
-
On the inner back, secure the wires with a single 4'' zip tie just above the y motor bracket. Don't forget to leave the wires a bit of slack. No pulling.
