Getting Ready to Build (continued…)

LEVELING BUILD PLATFORM

1.  Make sure you have placed Build Tape on Build Platform 

and no objects are present.

2.  Tap “Level” on your Dremel 3D40’s touch screen.

3.  3D40 will first check the level at the back of the build 

platform, then move to the first leveling position.

4.  The touchscreen will indicate if your build platform is too 

high or too low.

 

a) If the build platform is too high, turn knob to the right 
until you hear a “beep”. Tap “Verify” to check the bed 
level again.

 

b) If the build platform is too low, turn knob to the left until 
you hear a “beep”. Tap “Verify” to check the bed level again.

5.  Repeat step above for the second levelling position.

6.  When the build platform is level, extruder will automatically 

move to the calibration position and complete the 
levelling process.

BUILDING OUT OF THE BOX

1.  On the main screen, tap the “Build” option. Then tap the 

machine icon to select from pre-installed models.

2.  Tap on the model file you would like to build and tap “Build”.

3.  Your Dremel 3D40 will align the extruder with the build 

platform and will begin heating the extruder.

4.  Once the correct temperature is reached, your model will 

begin to build.

5.  Touch screen will display “Object Finished”.

REMOVING YOUR OBJECT FROM THE BUILD 
PLATFORM

6.  Wait for the extruder to cool before removing your object.

7.  With the object still attached, remove build platform from 

the build area.

8.  Use your hand to peel your object from the build platform. If 

needed, gently use the object removal tool to remove object 
from build platform.

Best Practices & Resources

7

BEST PRACTICES

1.  ALWAYS USE BUILD TAPE. 

2.  Ensure your platform is level (before you begin building 

your object).

3.  Ensure spool is installed properly and can rotate freely. 

4.  When loading filament, allow Dremel 3D40 to extrude until 

material is consistent with the installed filament color. 

5.  It is important to stay near your Dremel 3D40 during 

operation and watch the Dremel 3D40 begin building 
objects. (If a situation occurs, select the STOP icon right 
away, to stop any further building).

6.  Remove the build platform before removing the object. 

7.  Use object removal tool gently to avoid damaging the build 

platform or object.
