（1 ）Platform Leveling，The first time to use this printer, you need leveling the
platform
Please adjust the distance between the nozzle and the platform in 1,2,3,4points,
the distance should be just the thickness of a sheet of paper.( Please do this leveling
with the help of adults.)
a), Click the button , Z axis will go home position. After Z axis come to
home position, please turn off the power, after turn off the power ,then you can
move the X axis and Y axis by hand （Attention: when the hot bed is
heating up, the home function will not react until the temperature of the hot
bed reaches the set temperature）
b),Move the nozzle to 1point, And put a sheet of paper between the nozzle and the
platform, if the distance is too far , turn the hand-twisted nut counter-clockwise to
make the printing platform rise to the standard distance. If the distance between
the nozzle and the platform is too close, turn the hand-twisted nut clockwise to

make the printing platform fall to the standard distance, (check the distance is right
or not .that is, when drawing A4 sheet, the nozzle should be attached to the A4
sheet without scratching it).
c), do the same way to adjust another 2,3,4, three points。
d), When the distance between the nozzle and the platform all is right distance in
1,2,3,4, four points, leveling finished and succeed.
Please turn on the power again after platform leveling

7.0 FAQ
Q1: why the printing head can not move after pressing the printing button in initial
printing?
A: Please remove the clips in front left and right conner before using the machine. The clips are for
transportation protection
Q2:How to feed the filament and how to judge filament feed successfully?
A:First,straighten the filament and gently push into the feeding hole,at the same time,use the other
hand to operate the screen to “in filament” choose it and confirm . Then wait about 1
minute(machine is warming up),release the material when feel the filament is caught by the
machine. Then wait another 10 seconds to observe if there has “silk”coming from the machine.
There is about 10cm filament come out.Till this time,filament feed successfully.If you operate
based on the above steps,but no silks come out from nozzle after waiting for more than 5
minutes,please re-power machine and try again.
Q3: How to retract filament? How to solve when the filament can not retracted

A: slide the back gear to ‘retract’ gear, normally this way will retract successfully, if failed pls try
to feed first, then retract again. Please Pay special attention that, gently pull up the material to help
till filament completely get out of the printer head.
Q4: What's the reason that the model can not stick to the printing bed in the initial,
printing or in the process of printing?
A: The gap between the bed and the nozzle too far, you need leveling the bed, use the method we
mentioned above( 4.4 article)
Q5: What needs to pay attention to when adjust the printing bed? Need to check bed
Before each print?
A: adjust the printing bed, need to use the screw driver in the accessories box to rotate the bed
screws, when rotate clockwise the bed go down, when rotate counterclockwise the bed go up.
No need always adjust the leveling with every printing.
How to leveling pls refer to above mentioned(4.4 article)
Q6:How to judge what’s the best distance between nozzle and printing bed?What is the difference
when its too close and too far?
A:The standard distance between the nozzle and printing bed is the thickness of a piece of A4
paper, Insert a piece of paper between the bed and the nozzle,with normal pull and with resistance
as the standard;in the condition that do not scratch bed.The closer it is, the firmer the model will be.
●The right distance between nozzle and bed:the”silks”are flat,spread on bed very smooth and no
burrs.
●The distance is too far:the “silks”are round, spread on bed unevenly, with gaps and tilt. Filament
come down to the bed is by gravity force. The rounded strips’ adhesion effect is not good,they are
easily moved.Printing effect is very unsatisfactory.
●The distance is too close:the “silks” are irregular protrusion(with burrs)on the both sides,but thin
in the middle. Or there are no silks coming down. Or the bed is scratched with a deep trace .
Q7:Why do there twist lots of filament nearby the nozzle in the process of printing?Model become
mess of silks?
A:there are several situation:
●When it happens in the initial printing,the distance between nozzle and bed is too far, the silks
can not stick to the bed ,so it would become messy filament.Please twist the 4 bed screws 90
degree anti-clockwise.If still not ok , then please twist 90 degree anti-clockwise again till normal
printing.
●The bed is with oil,please use dry towel to tidy the bed,do not use hand to touch the bed directly.
Q8:How can i move the printing head X ,Y?
A:Please unplug the power,then use hand to move the printing head to where you want. Please do
not try to move the head up and down, Z axis can not be moved by hand.
Q9:How can i move the printing head up?
A:Only in the condition that the printer is power on but is not printing, press the printing bed for 3
seconds then release, it will goes up 1 cm.
Q10:Does the printer need warming up before each printing?
A:There needs to warm up when feed and retract operation,In the normal printing, you only need
to choose the model and wait about 1 minute,then printer will start work.
Q11:Can the model continue printing if electricity is cut off?
A:If there is no electricity in the process of printing, the models can not continue printing.
Q12:Can pause printing in the process of printing?
A:Yes, press the printing button, it will pause. Then press again,it will continue printing.

Q13:How to stop printing?
A:Please press the printing button for 3 seconds then release,then it will stop
printing(precaution:can not continue printing after stop).
Q14:Filament will run out soon in the process of printing, What should to do?
A:Please pause the printing, then slide the switch to retract gear, use hand to pull up the
filament.(precaution:please do this before all the filament goes into the feeding hole,or there will be
no filament hand can pull up).Then put new filament into the hole and use another hand to slide
the switch to feed gear, wait about 10 seconds till the filament come down.Then slide switch to the
middle gear and press printing button shortly to resume printing.Please pay special attention
that ,after feeding 10 seconds, timely slide switch to the middle gear in avoid that the the filament
pimple appear in the model.
Q15:When print the first layer,there is no filament on the bed ,why?
A:Please check if the distance between nozzle and bed is to close cause no space for filament to
come out.
Q16:Can the_machine print online?
A:Yes, it needs to use third party slicing software CURA. Please refer to the above step of point
