Check Before Use
Pulley elastic adjustment
- Check if the print head is shaking. If it is, adjust the hexagonal isolation column located underneath the print head until it slides smoothly and without shaking.
- Check if the print bed is shaking. If it is, adjust the hexagonal isolation column located underneath the print bed until it slides smoothly and without shaking.
Belts
Please manually move the print head and print platform. If there is any
difficulty or abnormal noise during the movement, adjust the tensioner to
ensure smooth sliding of the print head or platform.
Connecting to Power
Connect the printer to a power outlet with the power cable, then power on the
printer.
Power-on guide
Note: The current interface is for reference only. Due to ongoing feature upgrades, please refer to the UI of the latest firmware release for accurate information.
Leveling
Press “Tools” – “Control” – “Auto Level”. Wait for the machine to complete the
leveling process.
Note
- Please check whether the PEI board is installed before leveling.
- The leveling sensor is only used for platforms with metal surfaces. If you replace the printing platform by yourself,
- please choose a platform with a metal surface to ensure the normal use of the automatic leveling function.
Loading Filament
- Put the filament onto the spool holder.
- lnsert the filament into the extruder until you feel some resistance. While doing so, press and hold the button on top of the extruder.
- Press “Tools” – “Filament” – “PLA/ABS”. Wait for the nozzle to heat up to the preset temperature. Press “Extrude” and wait for the filament material to be extruded from the nozzle. After stopping the filament feed, please clean the nozzle.
First print
- Select a model from the local or U-DISK and start printing.
- We recommend using one of the pre-loaded files as a first test print.
Note: After starting the printing process, please observe the situation of the first layer. If situations 0 and © occur on the first layer, it indicates that the Z-Offset value is not matching. You can adjust the Z-Offset value during the printing process to adjust the distance between the print head and the print platform.
Other Function Descriptions
- Vibration Compensation: To achieve better printing results, it is recommended to perform a vibration compensation check after printing for more than 300 hours or when the machine has been moved. This feature helps reduce the occurrence of banding during high-speed printing. Regular vibration compensation checks help maintain the stability and accuracy of the printer, thereby improving print quality.
- Press “Tools” – “Control ” – “Vibration compensation” and wait for the machine to complete the calibration. Please do not touch the machine during the calibration process.
- Power Loss Resume : In the event of a sudden power outage or accidentally turning off the machine, this function does not require manual setup. Simply reconnect the power and turn on the machine. You can then resume the print.
- Note : The PEI platform adheres better when heated. However, if the power loss is too long, the platform will cool down, and the model may detach, making it impossible to resume the print.
- Filament Run out Detection : This function is designed to prevent printing failures when the filament runs out during the middle of a print. It alerts the user to replace the filament before continuing the print, effectively preventing wasted prints due to filament shortage.
Note: After filament runout, you will need to remove the remaining filament from the filament tube and then insert a new filament.
Retraction Instructions
Press “Tools” – “Filament” – “PLA/ ABS”. Wait for t he nozzle to heat up to
the preset temperature. Press “Retract” and wait for the filament material to
retract, or ma nu ally pull out the filament directly by pressing the button
Troubleshooting Guide
If there is a leveling anomaly, please follow the steps below to check
-
After powering off, check the wiring of the leveling calibration module to ensure it is connected properly.
Then, restart the machine. -
Press [Tools]-[Control]-[Module Calibration]-[Position Calibration]. Use the [X Move] and [Y Move] options on the screen to move the nozzle to the center point of the calibration module. Once done, click on [Save]. Afterward, perform the leveling operation again.
