Manual / kit fastener question

Hi, I bought the full kit and have just finished getting J1 set up and have encountered a few issues I'd like to get some clarification on before I move on.

This one not a big deal but on page 55 just curious why we solder an extension to the red switch wire? I did this, then later when connecting it up to the driver it is too long so ended up just cutting it off again. What am I missing here?

Page 59 calls for #4 plastic thread form screws but my kit only has #6 thread form screws so I used them. Unfortunately looking ahead the build appears to require a total of 28 of these but the kit only supplies 26. Am I using the wrong fastener here then?

Thanks, Al

Hello, I've had some supply chain issues and depending on supplier I've had some batches of the rocker switch come with shorter wires. I have added a note to the manual to only extend them if they are shorter than 22cm. The issue on page 59 was a typo and I have corrected that as well. I apologize for the confusion on that.
