Coarse Manual Platform Leveling
Usually you do not need to adjust the platform
manually. This is only necessary if the automatic
leveling function was unable to effectively level the
platform.
There are three screws under the platform of the
UP BOX: two screws in the front and one screw
under the platform at the back. These screws can
be fastened or loosened to adjust the leveling of the
platform.
In the 3D Print - Maintenance window, you can move the print head to five different positions on the platform. You can
also use the "To" button to move the print platform to a particular height.
First move print head to the center of the platform and move the platform to almost touching the nozzle (eg. nozzle
height). Use a piece of paper to determine the correct platform height
.
Try to move the paper and feel its drag between the platform and the nozzle. Make sure you can feel the similar drag
resistance at all five positions by moving the print head and adjusting the screws while the platform height is fixed.
