Conclusion

Check the hole for the PTFE filament guide in the printed extruder support and clear it as needed BEFORE you mount the extruder. I didn't and had to backtrack. No guidance on which way to mount the fan that cools the heatsink either, hope I got it right The fan body has no arrows for spin or flow. I THINK flow is towards the label, other fans here are like this.
