Note that the printer Tower, Base, and Power Supply are
connected with cables.
1. Place the Power Supply, Base, and Tower Frame on a
clean, flat, level surface (e.g., table or workbench) as
shown. Carefully remove the zip tie that holds the X-axis
gantry.
2. Insert the Base length-wise between the legs of the
Tower Frame. Align the two holes on each side of the
Tower Frame with the corresponding holes on each side
of the base. On each side of the Tower Frame, insert one
screw from outside the Frame into the exposed screw
hole and tighten slightly. Then, insert one screw into
each Tower Frame leg from inside the Base and tighten
slightly. Using the included 4mm Hex Wrench, tighten
each screw to secure the Frame to the Base.
3. The cable assembly on the left side of the base has
three cables coiled and secured with a zip tie. Carefully
remove the zip tie, then insert the white connector on
the longest of the three cables into the white connector
on the bottom of the X-axis stepper motor.
4. Mate the two-pin black cable connector in the cable
bundle with the corresponding black connector on the
cable attached to the stop switch.
5. Insert the white connector on the shortest of the
three cables into the corresponding white connector on
the left side Z-axis stepper motor.
6. Insert the white connector on the short cable on the
right side of the base into the corresponding white
connector of the right side Z-axis stepper motor.
7. Remove the outer plastic nut from the Spool Holder,
then insert the threaded end of the Spool Holder into
the large hole on the Filament Stand, from the side
opposite the base support. Thread the plastic nut over
the Spool Holder and tighten the plastic nuts on each
side of the Filament Stand.
8. Position the Filament Holder on top of the Tower
Frame with the Spool Holder on the left side, so that it
extends above the center of the Frame. Insert two
screws and tighten them using the included 4mm Hex
Wrench.
9. Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position (O
side depressed). Plug the C13 end of the included AC
Power Cable into the C14 panel connector on the Power
Supply, then plug the other end into a nearby AC power
outlet. Depress the I side of the power switch to power
the printer ON.
