Assembly and Set-Up

Loading Filament

The Tools screen provides a series of menus which allow you to control a lot of features of your machine including leveling, changing filament, and connecting to the internet. We’ll start with loading filament.

The Filament screen allows you to Load and Unload filament. Before changing or loading filament, always make sure the build plate is not touching the nozzle. You want at least 50mm of space.

1. Click "Load" While it heats up, prepare the filament		2. Insert the spool holder (D) into the filament Cartridge (19) on the back of the machine

3. Unpackage the spool of filament. Slide it onto the spool holder so the filament is going counter-clockwise.		4. Feed the filament through the Filament Detector (16) and then through the filament guide tube. Push it far enough that it exits the other end of the tube.

5. After the Extruder’s (8) temperature reaches220°C, the printer will sound a beep to prompt you to load the filament into the extruder.		6. Insert the filament from the filament guide tube into the Filament Intake (10) at an upright angle. Apply pressure until the Extruder starts pulling the filament.

7. Wait until it has been extruding from the Nozzle (3) for a few seconds before clicking ”Done” on the screen.		This is what it should look like when the filament is starting to extrude from the nozzle

8. Place the clear top onto the printer as shown above.		9. Make sure filament guide tube is going through the opening at the back.

Congratulations, you have now loaded your filament and finished assembling your printer!

Leveling

The Level button walks you through leveling your printer. First it will set the printer to it’s Home position. Then it will test the level of the print bed at three locations, directing you on how to adjust the nuts until it is properly leveled. Follow the on-screen instructions until you complete leveling.

Congratulations, you have leveled your printer! You are now ready to start printing!
