'''Step 2:''' Attach the encoder base to the motor using the two small screws without washers. Make sure the raised edge is facing out so the cap will fit on later. When tightening the screws, pull the base outward as far as possible, as indicated by the red arrow below. This will ensure there is enough space so the optical reader does not contact the aluminum hub of the encoder wheel.
