Getting the printer ready for operation
Unboxing
1. Make sure the printer is standing on a solid platform and is not
upside down.
2. Stand the printer so the protective foam can be accessed. Remove
the protection.
3. Take the printer out of the box. Use extra caution while doing so.
First, stand in front of the box and bend down at your knees. Keep
your back straight. Grab the printer from both sides at the bottom to
take it out. Pull the printer out very carefully and put it on a solid
surface, e.g. a desk.
4. Remove the plastic using your hands only. Avoid using scissors or any
other sharp items.
5. Take the top lid off.
6. Carefully remove the protective foam.
7. Cover the printer with the top lid and make sure that the lid fits.
8. Open the spool chamber (side door) and take out the foam.
9. Hold the box with both hands and take it out. Mind your fingers.
10. Check the accessories.
11. Now, follow the print preparation chapter
Print preparation
1. Place the spool holder inside the filament chamber
2. Unpack the glass print bed.
3. Use the glue stick to make a thin even layer on the glass print bed.
Then make another one in a different direction and allow it to dry
for a couple of minutes. Check if the final layer is straight without
any bumps. If not, wash and follow this step again.
4. Put the bed into the printing chamber. The three magnets have to
fit together with the three pins on the table inside the chamber.
Check if the bed is immovable.
5. Connect the printer with a power source.
6. Turn on the printer
7. Now, follow the Preparing your filament chapter.
Preparing your filament
1. Unpack the spool of filament.
2. Find the end of the plastic string and release it from the holes. Hold
the string at all times.
3. Cut off the string’s end using either scissors or a knife at under a 45degree angle. Do not allow the string to go loose.
4. Straighten up the last 5 cm of the string.
