Installing Hardware

 

Start by installing the extruder. You need two black screws from the bolt tool box, found in the accessory box, and the appropriate hex wrench.

 

Firstly, lower the build platform by using one of the methods described above either rotating the screw orgently pushing down with both hands).

 

Holding the extruder by its sides, take it out of the accessory sleeveand put it on the extruder seat with the fan facing forward. Align to the screw holes and fasten with theblack screws.

 

 

Next is the installation of the filament bracket. If you have two brackets, install one on each side; if youhave only one, install it on the left hand side close to the switch.

 

The installation of the filament bracket is very simple; just insert it into the circular opening and tighten thenut behind.

 

Then install the filament guide tube to the vacancy upon the extruder. Put one end of the guide tube into the vacancy, buckle with the thumb and index finger to put in the vacancyon the top of the extruder.

 

 

The hardware installation is almost completed. Next, being sure of the power switch in the "OFF" position, confirm that the power cord is plugged into the power outlet next to the power switch.

 

 

Now plug the USB A TO B cable into the USB B-type type port do not plug the other end in. Finally, take thefilament out of the box, install it on the bracket, and screw the retaining nut. The nut should not be over-tightened.

 

 

Congratulations, you have completed the initial hardware installation! If you're ready to get started printing, go ahead to the next step: software installation!
