1. Introduction & Contacting Technical Support
Thank you for purchasing the Fusion3 F410 3D printer.
Your 3D printer has been designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards to give many years of
reliable, high-quality output with minimal, regular maintenance.
ROLE OF THE QUICKSTART GUIDE
This quick-start guide is designed to assist you with unpacking, setting up and introducing you to the basic
workflow of your 3D printer.
THE QUICK-START GUIDE IS NOT A COMPREHENSIVE MANUAL
Your F410 User Manual is available in PDF form and can be found on both the SD card, and on the
Fusion3 website under Support>Manuals & Downloads>F410 3D Printer.
YOUR 3D PRINTER IS A COMPLEX PIECE OF EQUIPMENT: THERE IS A LEARNING CURVE INVOLVED
Your 3D Printer is a machine tool, not an appliance (like a microwave). Please be prepared to invest the
time to learn how it works and how to get the most out of it.
FUSION3 IS HERE TO HELP YOU GET THROUGH THIS LEARNING CURVE!
FREE LIVE TRAINING CLASSES:
Please ensure that all operators attend one of our live training classes offered each week. You will
receive emails with links to register.
CONTACT TECHNICAL SUPPORT:
The Fusion3 Technical Support team is available Mondays through Friday via phone (1+ 877-452-0010,
extension 2) or via email at [e-mail].

3. Unboxing Your F410
IMPORTANT: Please retain all packaging materials (3 pieces of the box, pallet, foam
endcaps). Your 3D printer is a sensitive piece of electrical equipment and should
always use this packaging when transporting.
To unbox your F410 3D printer:
1. Cut the plastic wrap off the box
2. Cut the plastic tie-down straps

Page 6
3. Lift the lid straight up off the box
4. Remove the top foam blocks (4 total -
marked with arrows) and the Getting Started
packet located on top of your printer. Inside
you will find this quick-start guide.
5. Carefully lift the sleeve straight up
and off the box. Sometimes this is easier
with two people.

Page 7
6. Locate your toolkit box in front of your printer
and remove it from the bottom tray.
7. Use 2 people to carefully pick up the printer.
Lift it out of the bottom tray. The foam
endcaps may stay attached –that’s ok. Set
the 3D printer on the ground next to the pallet
and remove the endcaps one at a time from
the printer. Take care not to step in the
bottom tray as your spare glass bed is under
your printer.
8. Now you are ready to move your F410 to its desired location (see Section 4 –“Where Should I Locate My
F410 3D Printer”)
9. Under your printer attached to the bottom tray
will be your filament and spare print surface.

4. Where Should I Locate My F410 3D Printer?
Please select a location that meets the following
criteria:
•A surface capable of supporting 120 lbs
•At least 31” x 30” in size
•Sturdy enough to resist shaking during the
printer’s operation
•Allows for the rear face of your F410 to be at
least 2” from any wall or obstruction
•Provides enough clearance on the right side
of the printer for the power cord and for the
operator to reach the power switch
5. Moving your F410
Your F410 weighs 85 lbs. and requires 2 persons
to lift at any time.
On the left and right faces are cutouts that
function as hand-holds.
Your Fusion3 F410 is a piece of precision
equipment: PLEASE DO NOT SUBJECT IT TO
SHOCKS, DROPS, OR BUMPS.

6. Setup
Once your F410 is located in its desired location:
1. Remove the protective films from the outside
of the 3 main door windows and the filament
door.
(This step may generate a static charge that
attracts dust in the first few days of operation.
Gently wipe the windows with a damp paper
towel to remove the dust if needed.)
2. Remove the protective film from the F410’s
Control Panel.

3. Open the main door and remove the 2 Z axis
shipping supports (indicated by orange
arrows). One is located near the front of the
3D printer; the other is located towards the
center-rear of the F410’s print bed.
You may need to move the Z axis up slightly
by gripping the belt with your hand and
pulling sideways gently.
