Take the "X End Left" plastic part and insert 2x LMU88 linear bearing, one on top of each other in the cylindrical hole. Repeat the exercise using the and the "X End Right" plastic part and the other 2x LMU88 linear bearings.​
Once assembled the components should look like this.
Now take the "X carriage" plastic part and insert 3x LMU88 linear bearing. Insert two of the linear bearings on top of each other in the deeper hole.​ Insert the remaining bearing in the other hole.
Insert the 2x 8mm x 200mm smooth rods in each of the LMU88 linear bearings. The X carriage will slide along these and will be guided by these rails when printing.​
Fasten the linear bearnings in the X carriage by inserting and tightening the M3 x 10mm screw in one side of the X carriage and placing the M3 nut in the opposit side. Once one, the linear bearing should hold in place.​
Repeat the exercise with the "X End Left" and the "X End Right" plastic parts. To fasten the linear bearnings in the these parts insert and tightening an M3 x 35mm screw in one side of the "X End Left" and placing the M3 nut in the opposit side.  Next insert an M3 x 35mm screw in one side of the "X End Right" and the M3 nut in the other. Once one, the linear bearing should hold in place.​
Place one of the 3/8" nut in the hexagonal hole in the "X End Left" as shown,
