Note: The Ul information is only for reference, the actual Ul may be different.

  • Move the nozzle near the top of the leveling screw, twist the screw left or right to make the distance between the nozzle and the platform is as thick as a piece of A4 paper. Leveling the four corners in order, click CD to verify .whether the gap between the nozzle and the platform is proper or not.CREALITY-D1-DIY-3D-Printer- \(23\) CREALITY-D1-DIY-3D-Printer- \(24\) CREALITY-D1-DIY-3D-Printer- \(25\)
  • 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.

Preheating

CREALITY-D1-DIY-3D-Printer- \(27\)

When you wait for the temperature to rise, hang the filament over the filament holder

CREALITY-D1-DIY-3D-Printer- \(28\)

Load Filament

Put the filament into the filament detector, pass through the two wheels of the filament guide support, When the temperature reaches at the target temperature pressing the extruder spring. Insert the filament into the extrude small hole till the nozzle position. When the filament comes out from the nozzle it means the filament has been loaded successfully.CREALITY-D1-DIY-
3D-Printer- \(29\)
Please fix the filament tube on the corrugated pipe with a tie and dress the filament through the middle of the tube if you need to hoist the Siemen

Tips: How to replace the filament?

  1. Cut filament near the Extruder and slowly feed in the new filament to the material tube.
  2. After preheating the nozzle, push the filament a little forward and quickly withdraw the filament, and then feed in the new filament.
