FINISHING TOUCHES (TIME: 30-45 MIN.)

1. Check all the bolts if they are tightened correctly.
2. Check if all the axes can move freely, without cables being jammed.
3. Put a little bit of oil or grease on the z-spindle, to make it run smoothly. Preferably a thicker kind of grease or oil, we use motor-oil.
4. When you have a printer with a shining through color, the opto-sensors of the axes might not work. To make them work you can put
one of the following things on the switching vanes:
a. Tippex
b. Non-shining through tape on the flange
c. Piece of aluminum foil
5. Make sure the z-axis limit switch is put it 5 cm below the top edge of the z-axis rail. This way you prevent the hot-end from hitting the table
before the switching vane triggers the opto sensor.
6. Mount the frame handle. Use the supplied M8 (or M6 frame nuts depends on the handle type delivered) and bolts to mount it. Place the
frame holder as close to the vertical frame beam as possible.
Prepare the heated bed.
In this step the goal is to put a layer of tape on the surface of the heated
bed. This layer makes sure the extruded plastic will correctly stick on
