Page 3: Before You Start
Before you Start Is This Manual for Your Kit? This installation manual covers the R1 enclosure design for the Creality CR-10 S4 (400x400x400mm) and S5 (500x500x500mm ) enclosure. If you have a different version of the enclosure please read previous versions of the manual available on the website. Note that while the design for the S4 and S5 is the same, the enclosure sizes are different to exactly fit... - Page 4 If you can’t see through the plastic, please don’t panic! What you’re seeing is just the plastic or paper protective covering. When plastic sheets are manufactured they are covered by either a paper (brown colored) or plastic (white) covering to protect against scratches. Follow the directions below to remove the cover and discover the beautiful plastic underneath.
- Page 5 Assemble Panels The S5 side panels are made from thicker 1/4" acrylic to provide more structural rigidity. Do not try to bend the 1/4” acrylic! The S4 version has 1/8” acrylic or 1/4” wood side panels. 1. Attach The Front Door Frame Corners Each of the corners on the enclosure will be held together by the connectors pictured below.
- Page 6 The S4/S5 version also has three new connectors at the top and on the left and rights side when viewed from the front. 2. Assemble Front Door Locate the magnetic latches and use the wood screws to attach them to the latch mounts. Hand tighten and make sure they’re secure, but do not over tighten or they may strip.
- Page 7 L and one R connector at the back. The CR-10 S4/S5 design adds a side door for each access to the printer, which is assembled at this time. The latch mounts...
- Page 8 Attach the door hinges, latch mounts, strike plates, and the knob, and the assembly will look like the illustration to the right. As with the front door, adjust how the door hangs by loosening the hinge screws, using the strike plates to hold the door to the latches, and then tightening the hinge screws.
- Page 9 The air filter should look like this after being attached. Note that its easier to insert the screws from the inside, and put the nuts next to the filter housing. Now attach the back to the assembled left and front panels, which should look like the illustration to the right.

6. Attach Right Side The right side is tricky to attach because of the large size of the enclosure. Although attaching it consists of simply screwing it to existing connectors, unless you have exceedingly long arms you will need a buddy to help hold the nuts in place. - Page 11 Copyright 2019 3DUpfitters...
- Page 12 9. Sealing Gaps Once the enclosure is completely put together, it is time to make sure that each of the panels is held tightly to each adjoining panel. The connectors are designed with a small amount of play that allows you to make small adjustments for the perfect fit.
- Page 13 The filament guide attaches to the Y motor (vertical motion) by removing the two nuts, placing the guide’s holes over the two screws, and then replacing the nuts. The illustration to the right shows how the runout sensor fits between the guide and the extruder. Copyright 2019 3DUpfitters...
- Page 14 Bed Clips In order to make the size of the enclosure as small as possible, there may be little room on the front of the bed for clips that stick out. If you find the enclosure needs a little more room, attach the clips to the bed, and then use needle-nose pliers to remove the clips.
- Page 15 Tool Holder Our favorite customization is to add magnetic tool holders to the side. One end can be attached via the same hole as the corner connectors, but the other end will require drilling a single hole. Upgraded Bed Heaters The next most common modification is a better heater bed, including the 120V bed.
