My top tower mounts do not have limit or extrusion end stop screws. How far should I insert the AL extrusions before tightening down the Allen bolts ?

Are the screws missing or are you building a V1 machine?

It's a V2 with recent design change. Is there a space to put the screws that I'm missing?

The red oval indicates where the screw goes. It's different in that its the only part on the entire machine where a screw goes into a non-round hole. I found it easier to set the screw into the vertical support by pushing the small phillips screwdriver into the hole where the screw goes and turning it, sort of like a drill. That helped in getting the screws into the hole easily.
