I'll think 48 deg. C., on the outside metal cover is pretty high!
This may lead to overheating of the small stepper driving ICS. If it's this hot I would have installed fan just to blow under there while printing. I'll think that there was planned to be a fan or two in the original edition of UM2. Somehow this was skipped, but maybe this was an optional thing for operation in hot countries?
On the main PCB there is a connector to be used for a 24 V DC fan..
You may also check that the current settings for the stepper motors is at correct level that's normally 1200 mA.
Good Luck
Thanks
