¶ Safety Warning
IMPORTANT!
It's crucial to power off the printer before conducting any maintenance work, including work on the printer's electronics and tool head wires. Performing tasks with the printer on can result in a short circuit, leading to electronic damage and safety hazards.
During maintenance or troubleshooting, you may need to disassemble parts, including the hotend. This exposes wires and electrical components that could short circuit if they contact each other, other metal, or electronic components while the printer is still on. This can result in damage to the printer's electronics and additional issues.
Therefore, it's crucial to turn off the printer and disconnect it from the power source before conducting any maintenance. This prevents short circuits or damage to the printer's electronics, ensuring safe and effective maintenance. For any concerns or questions about following this guide, we recommend submitting a technical ticket regarding your issue and we will do our best to respond promptly and provide the assistance you need.
¶ Remove the anti-vibration feet
¶ Step 1: Lay down the printer
Turn off the printer and disconnect the power cable. Then, lay the printer on its side to facilitate the removal of the printer feet.
Given the printer's weight, it is recommended that two people work together to avoid potential damage.
¶ Step 2: Remove the anti-vibration feet
- Use the H2.0 Allen key to remove the screw (M3x21.5x6) securing the feet.
Please replace the corresponding printer feet as needed.
- Remove the feet, screws, and washers together.
The feet are also attached to the ring with adhesive backing, and can be torn off after removing the screws.
- If you need to remove the screw and washer from the feet together, you can pull the screw from the adhesive side and pull the washer and screw out of the feet together.
¶ Install the anti-vibration feet
¶ Step 1: Install the anti-vibration feet
- Thread the washers onto the screws (M3x21.5x6), then insert the screws and washers into the feet. Pull the bottom of the screws by hand to secure the washers and screws into the feet.
- Peel off the adhesive backing of the new feet, align the screws with the holes, and install the feet and screws together. Press the feet firmly to adhere them to the ring, then use the H2.0 Allen key to tighten the fixing screws (M3x21.5x6).
The remaining three feet can be installed using the same method.
¶ Step 2: Place the printer upright
Place the printer flat on the table, ensuring it is stable and does not wobble.
Given the printer's weight, it is recommended that two people work together to avoid potential damage.
¶ Verify the Functionality
Make sure the printer is placed upright without any shaking.
