The heated bed I received is labeled on the back side on the front edge with "#315, FRONT, 110 volt". The wire leads come off the center of the back side, not the left side as the instructions state. Is this the current configuration? The leads cannot be moved to the left side as the hole pattern is not a square. The choices are front or back. I don't see a problem, except that the whole length of Panduit on the back bed rail will not be required. Some reassurance would be nice.
Note: make sure you have post-assembly T-nuts for the Panduit, mine came with regular T-nuts which would require disassembly.
As of at least 6/27, the wiring harness has changed from that shown here. The two sets of 3 white heavy gauge wires from the hot bed that are shown are now just 2 lighter gauge wires, one black and one white. There is also a heavy gauge green ground wire that is not mentioned at all in the instructions, nor shown in any diagrams or photos.
I connected the white wire to the neutral block, the black wire to the relay, and the green wire to the ground block. Seems straightforward, but I've screwed up simpler things. Please confirm. This leaves only the eyelet end of the ground wire unaccounted for. Please advise as to the preferred connection point on or near the bed.
Also of note, the filament spool bracket is just above the elec. box and just out of sight as you bend down to look in the box. I hit my forehead, twice.
Please avoid using left/right when talking about a part that can be viewed from both side. Fig. 33-3 needs to be taken from the top to show how the non-symmetrical front
filament guide is correctly installed. A warning about what will happen if installed backwards would cause me to take extra care.
The Z-upright beams are not symmetrical. There is a slot on the smooth inside surface that is off to one side. I have 3 Z-uprights with the slot on the left and one with the slot one the right. Is this going to matter? My anal retentive side wants there to be 2 lefts and 2 rights, with all the slots toward the back or front or center or outside.

Edited to remove the install of Corner plates and Triangle braces which were already installed in step 3. Screwed up and deleted whole step. Recreated but could not upload images from dropbox. Sorry.
Question-should we edit the wiki or just leave comments for feedback?
