Page 3: Before You Start
You Really Do Want to Read the Directions Hey, we get it. You just got your new enclosure kit and want to start using it as fast as possible. How hard can assembling a few plastic panels possibly be? It’s not that hard, assuming you’re following the directions, but try to use brute force, and you’ll end up working your way through your vocabulary of swear words. - Page 4 Don’t Panic If You See This! If you can’t see through the plastic, please don’t panic! What you’re seeing is just the plastic or paper protective covering. When plastic sheets are manufactured, they are covered by either a paper (brown colored) or plastic (white) covering to protect against scratches.
- Page 5 Warning Please do not move the Taz6 when the enclosure is installed. If you need to move the Taz6 itself, remove the enclosure by lifting it straight vertically. Copyright 2020 3DUpfitters...

- Page 7 1. Identify the Corner Connectors Each corner of the enclosure will be held together by the connectors pictured below. There are only two versions, L and R, which can be identified by the letters stamped on the inside. The opposite connectors are identical, i.e., the Bottom Right is the same as Top Left.
- Page 8 There are also mid-panel connectors on the top and left and right sides of the door frame. These should be attached using M4 cap head 12mm screws. 3. Assemble Latch Mount Locate the magnetic latch and use the wood screws to attach it to the latch mount. Hand tighten and ensure it's secure, but do not overtighten, or the screws may strip.
- Page 9 4. Assemble Door Attach the hinges to the outside of the door frame using M4 cap head 12mm screws and nuts. There will be some play in the hole size so that you can adjust the door to swing freely. Be sure to insert the interior door the same way you removed it from the front panel.
- Page 10 The front should now look like the picture below. You’ll also want to make sure the front door swings smoothly. The easiest way is to lay the enclosure on a towel on its side so the hinges are at the top. Loosen the screws attaching the hinges to both the door and the door frame and use the magnetic latch to hold the door in the middle of the hole.
- Page 11 The large 60mm hole is either for the included fan by itself, an air filter (purchased separately)/fan combo, or it can be covered up by a plastic disk depending on how much airflow you want. Confirm the fan's direction by plugging it into a USB power supply before attaching the filter.

Page 12: Attach Feet
Attach the right side to the connectors on the back and front. The three sides should make a U shape, as shown below. 7. Attach Feet The feet raise the enclosure from the surface slightly, making it fit perfectly around the Taz6. - Page 13 8. Attach Left Sides First, attach the left-side top connector as shown below. The left panel is split into two to fit around the electronics without cracking. The front left panel has a slit to fit around the knob, while the rear left panel has a cutout to accommodate the electronics case's back.
- Page 14 8. Sealing Gaps Once the enclosure is completely put together, it's time to make sure that each panel is held tightly to each adjoining panel. The connectors are designed with a small amount of play that allows you to make minor adjustments for the perfect fit. 1.
- Page 15 The problem is that those two goals use two different techniques in terms of airflow. For the best air quality, as much air as possible needs to come into the enclosure and then be vented or filtered out. All of our enclosures come with fans, and we've chosen the CFM ratings to match the cubic size of the enclosures.
