Tips:
a
“Assisted Leveling” is only functional if the relative distance between proximity sensor and

may have to use the manual leveling which will be explained in next section.
b
If using Cura for slicing, please set the “Initial layer thickness” to 0 for better adhesion.
c
During assisted leveling, it is OK the nozzle may out of the range of the print platform.
d
The proximity sensor only valid to metallic plate such as aluminum, and it is sensitive to
temperature. It is suggested to use this function at room temperature. If changed to glass
print platform, please use manual leveling.
