XTOOL D1 Pro Wire and Hose Management Installation

In this video I will show you how to install the Embrace Making Wire Harness and Hose Management System for the XTOOL D1 Pro. It is an easy way to greatly improve the longevity of the machine by reducing tight bends and pinch points of the harness.
You can find this kit on my website here:
► embracemaking.com/products/xt...
One of the biggest shortcomings of the XTool D1 pro is the wire management system from the factory. The placement of the various wire harnesses seem to be an afterthought and they are sometimes in the path of moving parts, getting pinched between the gantry and rear frame member, or even encroaching on your work space where they will come in contact with your workpiece. Once air assist is added, another unruly hose is getting tangled in the mix.
To fix all of these issues, this wire and hose management system organizes the harness and air assist hose so that they bend naturally in each axis. It also moves these components away from the bottom of the frame to avoid flexing into the work space and provides more room between the gantry and rear frame member. The rear limit switch can now be reliably activated without obstruction.
All of this can be achieved without the use of expensive cable chains. Cable chains (or drag chains) are intended to be used with expensive harnesses and hoses rated for use in the abrasive environment of the inside of a cable chain in industrial settings. You do not incur these unnecessary costs for this application.
This kit is fully compatible with the XTool D1 Pro frame extension and also with the XTool enclosure.
Note that the wire harness included in this kit will not fit a NON-PRO machine. The regular D1 has an 8 pin connector whereas the D1 PRO has a 9 pin connector. If you wish to use this kit on the NON-PRO machine you will need to source your own connectors. It can be done but would require you to re-pin the included harness using 8 pin connectors.

Got mine and installed mine this week. Love it. I prefer it over drag chains because it gives me more options as i add/mod/tweak my machine. Looking forward to getting my vacuum hose and filter which comes Saturday.

[@michaelmcqueen8001]

Always coming up with new and better solutions. Appreciate your hard work!

[@EmbraceMaking]

Thank you very much Michael!

[@ulfmodig136]

😊 I installed it yesterday. It works really good and look professional. One of the best upgrades.

[@EmbraceMaking]

Great to hear and really glad you like it, thank you so much for the feedback!

[@annamaldivad]

Great solution. I'll give it a try.

[@EmbraceMaking]

Thanks! Looking forward to it!

[@equality4usall]

This is awesome but I was looking for the video with the zip tie cable management again for now, until i can get the rest of your upgrades (waiting on the shipment of a few of your products right now) but I can't find it.

[@viccrusselle8058]

I tried to install the cable management system today on my new XTool D1 Pro 10W. I followed the instructions exactly. Unfortunately, the cable harness that came with my new system is shorter than what is shown in the video. When I ran the harness on the outside of the machine, the stepper motor cable was too short to reach the upper laser head positions (i.e. pulled tightly on the cable). I wonder if XTool recently modified the cable harness.

[@EmbraceMaking]

Interesting, is yours the V2 model with the emergency stop? Contact me here: embracemaking.com/pages/contact and I'm sure we can figure it out :)

[@dennisbadillo3705]

Can I use these same clamps for the d1 10 non pro?

[@EmbraceMaking]

You can use the clamps yes - but the harness that I include in the kit I don't believe is compatible. Sadly the non-pro only has 8 pins I think where as the pro has 9 pins...

[@dennisbadillo3705]

Hey ordered some things from you for my d1 non pro. Runs amazing was able to build the Stanley rig and I was able to get a hand down fume extractor so I got a dual unit😂 I guess ,( I had sent an email, needed some help with part of my order ) thanks again- 🎉

[@jimhunt5259]

still rubs the top of the enclosure

[@EmbraceMaking]

The 40W is taller than the other modules and I had the extra thick honeycomb bed from the S1 underneath so it was riding pretty high on the carriage. I can also shorten up the harnesses a bit so they don't loop as high :)

[@fernandoquiceno]

Oh man. Just what I needed. To much stopping in the middle of my work. Just ordered a set. 👍🏼🫡

[@EmbraceMaking]

Amazing, thank you for the order and I hope it improves your experience with the machine!
