NOTES

• Do not use the printer any way other than described herein in order to avoid personal injury or property damage.
• Do not place the printer near any heat source or flammable or explosive objects. We suggest placing it in a well-ventilated, low-dust environment.
• Do not expose the printer to violent vibration or any unstable environment as this may cause poor print quality.
• Before using experimental or exotic filaments, we suggest using standard filaments such as ABS or PLA to calibrate and test the machine.
• Do not use any other power cable expect the one supplied. Always use a grounded three-prong power outlet.
• Do not touch the nozzle or printing surface during operation as they may be hot. Keep hands away from machine while in use to avoid burns or personal injury.
• Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating the printer. Such as cloths may become tangled in the printers moving parts leading to burns, possible bodily injury, or printer damage.
• When cleaning debris from the printer hooted, always use the provided tools. Do not touch the nozzle directly when heated. This can cause personal injury.
• Clean the printer frequently. Always turn the power off when cleaning, and wipe with a dry cloth to remove dust, adhered printing plastics or any other material off the frame, guide rails or wheels. Use glass cleaner or isopropyl alcohol to clean the print surface before every print for consistent results.
• Children under 10 years of age should not use the printer without supervision.
• This machine is equipped with a security protection mechanism. Do not manually move the nozzle and printing platform mechanism manually, while booting up, otherwise the device will automatically power off for safety.
• Users shall comply with related nation and region’s laws, regulations and ethical codes where the equipment or produced prints by it is used, and user of our product shall not use aforesaid products to print any end-use products, objects parts or components or any other physical prints that violate the national or regional laws, regulations and ethical codes where herein referred products, objects, parts or components or any other physical prints that violate the national or regional laws, regulations and ethical codes where herein referred product and produced prints by it is located.
• Tips: The upper cover is special for high – temperature consumables (e.g ABS) and low-temperature consumables are removed (e.g PLA)
• Tips: Do not plug or unplug the power cord when power on.

Power Supply Wiring

Caution

• Select the correct input voltage to match your local mains (115/230V)
• Damage can occur if voltage is set incorrectly.
• Connect the power cord and turn the power switch to 1 to turn it on.
• Do not connect or disconnect the cables when the machines is powered on.

Level the Platform

1. Slightly tighten the four levelling nuts as the bottom of the platform before first levelling.

2. Select “Settings” → “Level mode”, click on the number 1-5

3. Offset value valid of automatic levelling and the default automatic levelling return home in printing process which make an excellent result of printing when automatic levelling starting.

4. Offset value invalid of automatic levelling and it will reduce the time to levelling printing process when automatic levelling shut down.
   Notes: The UI information is only for reference, the actual UI may be different.
   Move the nozzle near the top of the levelling screw, twist the screw left or right to make the distance between nozzle and the platform is as thick as a piece of A4 paper. Levelling the four corners in order, click 5 to verify whether the gap between nozzle and platform is proper or not.

   • The nozzle is too far away from the platform, so the filament cannot adhere to the platform.
   • Filament are extruded evenly, just sacking on the platform.
   • The nozzle is too close to the platform, and the filament are not extruded enough, even scraping the platform.

5. Use a piece of A4 paper (standard printer paper) to assist with the adjustment, making sure that the nozzle lightly scratches the paper.
   Complete the adjustment of the screw on all 4 corners. Repeat above steps 1-2 times if necessary. Keep adjusting until there is slight resistance on the A4 paper from the nozzle.

Level the Platform

Auto-Levelling
If you need to realize the auto-levelling, you can have a setting:

Preheat

Method 1

Method 2

When turning ABS to PLA, the nozzle temperature should be raised to 240°C, and then replace with PLA. After PLA reaches the nozzle, to feed-in about 150mm to extrude the remaining ABS, and then the nozzle temperature is reduced to 200°C and start to print.

When you wait for the temperature to rise, hang the filament over the Filament Holder.

For smoother printing, the end of the filament should be placed as shown below.

Load Filament

When the temporary temperature hits the target temperature, feed in the filaments to the nozzle and keep await until you see liquid filament comes out of the nozzle.

Tips
How to Replace the Filament?

1. Cutting filament near the Extruder and slowly feed new filament until they are fed into the new filament.
2. Withdrawing the filament quickly and feeding the new filament after nozzle preheated and filament pushed a little forward.
