As described above. Use the link provided by @T3P3Tony, follow the link "3HC STEP File on github", there, use the context menu with a right click as @DIY-O-Sphere illustrates with his screenshot. You then might be asked whether you want to permit downloads from GitHub. You then will find the file "Duet3_Exp_3HC.step.txt" in your "Downloads" folder where you need to remove the second extension (".txt") from the file name. Finally, you need an app which can handle the .step file …

Well, in the meantime, I tried further: removing the .txt file type seemed to work in Finder, but the extension reappeared after editing. Use the file info dialog for that.

I don't use Fusion but FreeCad - after I had really renamed the file, I could import it without problems:
