Note: Please follow these steps and ensure that the guide tube is properly installed before
starting the "LOAD FILAMENT" function. Failure to install the guide tube may disrupt filament feed.
Reminder: If you are not too sure where the feed module tube port is,
you may open the casing of the machine to see the indication label.
Ensure that the guide tube has been tightly
inserted into the port to complete the guide tube
installation process.
Direct the guide tube from the tube movement area
out of the machine and then insert the other end of
the filament tube into the feed module tube port.

First retrieve filament spool to install the filament
spool axle ring.
Place the assembled filament spool (with the spool axle
rings) on the filament holder on the left side of the printer. Pull out a section of the filament and insert it into the
feed port.
Caution: Pay attention to the direction the
filament is being pulled out and ensure that the
filament spool axle is being rotated in the correct
manner.
Open the release arm and push the filament all the way
to the bottom so that the front end of the filament is
completely inserted into the feed module.
Take out and separate the filament spool
axle ring into its two components.
Install the sensor chip. Please pay special attention to
the position of the installation holes on the chip.
Insert the filament spool axle ring components
to either side of the filament spool, and use a
cruciform screwdriver to tighten and secure the
rings to the axle to complete the installation of
the filament spool axle rings.

CLEAN NOZZLE
Z OFFSET (adjust the printer module)
Z OFFSET settings adjustment
The user may use the Z OFFSET function to adjust the gap between the printing nozzle and the printing bed.
Caution: This printer has already been tested and adjusted to the optimal gap between the printing nozzle and printing
bed before shipping. We recommend recording the original settings before carrying out any adjustments.
UTILITIES
Over time, carbon deposits or filament dust buildup in the nozzle may decrease its performance. It is advised to clean the
nozzle after every 25 hours of printing.
Also, if the print bed calibration shows “ERR” or if there is any residue on your prints, you may try to clean the nozzle.
To clean the nozzle:
3.Hold the cleaning wire with the pliers, and carefully pass the
wire through the nozzle openning.
1.Select "YES" to begin.
4.Select "OK" to return.
2.Wait until the extruder heats up and moves to the front,
and the screen shows “READY FOR CLEAN”

1.The recommended distance between the nozzle and print bed(with bed tape securely fastened) is 0.3mm.
This should allow two sheets of copy paper to be drawn out smoothly but six sheets of copy paper cannot be
passed.
2.Increase/decrease the value based on a scale of 0.1mm.
Increasing the value will increase the gap between the print module and print bed by 0.1mm
Decreasing the value will also decrease the gap between the print module and print bed by 0.1 mm
