Step 9: Install the Elbow Actuator and Route Its Cables
Connect the XT30 cable connectors to actuator ID 21, seat it in part 300_15C, and route both cables through their designated openings.
Parts needed
| Part | Count |
|---|---|
| EC-A4310-P2-36 (ID 21) | 1 |
| Single-ended XT30 (2+2) - 100mm | 1 |
| Double-ended XT30 (2+2) - 230mm | 1 |

Instructions
Connect the XT30 connector of the 100 mm single-ended cable to one port on actuator ID 21 and one connector of the 230 mm double-ended cable to the other actuator port. Put the assembly aside.
Take part and lay it flat on the surface. Make sure that the port cut out on the body is facing upward toward the ceiling. And the port cut out on the side is facing toward you.
Align actuator ID 21 with the round hole on part . Route the single-ended XT30 cable through the hollow body and the double-ended XT30 cable through the cable channel until its free connector exits the side cutout. Make sure that the LED on the actuator align with the LED cut out (above the cable port cut out) on part also.

Step 8: Attach the Shoulder Yaw Joint Plate and Shaft Mount
Secure part 300_05A to actuator ID 20 with eight threadlocked M3x12 flat bolts, then route the cable through part 300_06B and secure it to the actuator shaft with six threadlocked M4x20 socket bolts.
Step 10: Attach the Elbow Housing Plates
Attach part 300_08A to part 300_15C with M4x16 flat bolts, then secure part 300_07A to part 300_15C and actuator ID 21 with threadlocked M4x16 and M3x12 flat bolts.
