¶ 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.

Use an H2.0 Allen key to remove the two fixing screws (M3x6).
Grasp the base shell of the live view camera firmly, gently push it upwards, then flip it outward. Remove the live view camera, exposing the camera connector cable on the back.
¶ Step 2: Disconnect the live view camera connector

¶ Assembly Guide
¶ Step 1: Connect the live camera connector
Replace the live view camera with a new one, reinsert the camera connector into the socket. Ensure that the protrusions on both sides of the cable are fully inserted into the socket before securely fastening the latch. (The blue part is completely covered, indicating that the connection is secure.)
¶ Step 2: Install the live view camera
When installing the live view camera, align the holes of the camera base with the leadscrew and insert it. The leadscrew helps to position the camera accurately.
Then align the screw holes on both sides, use an H2.0 hex key to tighten the two screws (M3x6).
After replacement, gently wipe the lens of the live view camera with a non-woven cloth to clean off any dust.
