Selecting the Installation Site

When choosing the installation site, consider the following:

• Space Requirements: Ensure there is adequate clearance around all sides of the printer for maintenance and proper ventilation.
  • Sides and Rear: 36 in (91.4 cm)
  • Front: 60 in (152.4 cm)
  • Overhead Clearance: 20 in (50.8 cm)
• Electrical Requirements: A dedicated 30A circuit capable of supporting the power requirements is essential.
• LAN Connection (Optional): For network connectivity and remote monitoring, ensure a nearby network access point.

Positioning and Maneuvering the Printer

1. Maneuvering the Printer:

   • Use a forklift to move the packaged printer to its designated location.
   • Due to its size and weight, a forklift is required.

2. Unpackaging the Printer:

   • While the printer is on the pallet, use an Allen key to remove the bottom skirt.
   • Use the forklift to lift the printer, aligning the forks with the built-in forklift channel slots.
   • Lower the printer onto its caster wheels and roll it into its final position.

3. Final Placement:

   • Once the printer is positioned, rotate the thumb wheels on each caster to lower the leveling pads.
   • Ensure the machine is stable and level
     before proceeding.
   • Reinstall the bottom skirt

4. Power Connection:

   • Connect both power supplies to suitable outlets that meet the voltage and power specifications.

Power On and Initial Setup

Step 1: Manual Bed Leveling

1. On the touch screen, press "Move Axis" → "All Home" to return the XY position to 0.
2. Use the "-Z" button to raise the bed until the screen displays XYZ at 0.
3. Manually move the extruder to each of the four corners of the bed.
4. At each corner, adjust the bed leveling nuts until the gap between the nozzle and the bed is 0.1 mm (approximately the thickness of a sheet of paper).
5. Repeat this process at all four corners until a consistent 0.1 mm gap is achieved without further adjustment.

Step 2: Auto Bed Leveling

1. On the touch screen, press "Settings" → "Auto Leveling".
2. The machine will automatically calibrate the bed using the Z-probe.

Note: If the Z-offset is adjusted in the future, repeat the auto-leveling process to maintain accuracy.
