Before you print

Carrier 110 x 85 x 5. Posts on a 58 x 49 pattern, height 8 above the deck; this pattern alone does not establish board compatibility. Two raised cable rails and four mounting ears. Verify component keep-outs against your board. Geometry has been digitally checked; this template has not been physically test-printed.

## Public controls

| Control | Default | Range | Step | Meaning |
| --- | ---: | --- | ---: | --- |
| Connector clearance width | 30 | 24–42 | 1 | Width of the opening in the front guard. |
| Connector clearance height | 12 | 8–14 | 1 | Height above the fixed lower edge at Z=9. |
| Reference pilot radius | 1.4 | 1.2–1.8 | 0.1 | Fit trial for the front-left post; the other three pilots remain 2.8 mm in diameter. |

All unlisted dimensions, topology and feature order remain fixed. Radius controls are radii, not diameters. These are independent numeric ranges; do not introduce unsupported formula bindings or assume a fit standard from an example value.

Adjustable dimensions

Parameter	Default	Range	Step
Connector clearance width	30 mm	24–42 mm	1 mm
Connector clearance height	12 mm	8–14 mm	1 mm
Reference pilot radius	1.4 mm	1.2–1.8 mm	0.1 mm
