The mold sub-platen assembly also includes a second sub-platen that is attachable to a moving side portion of the mold base that is mountable to a moving platen of the injection molding machine. The method includes attaching a set of guide pins to a mold sub-platen at locations that correspond to guide openings in a mold and installing the mold on the mold sub-platen such that the guide pins extend through guide openings in the first half of the mold and into guide openings in a second half of the mold.
