Opening the package
Your Sharebot Kiwi-3D is equipped with a series of accessories that allow you to make it immediately
operative; there is no software because it is open source and constantly updated. Software must be
downloaded from the website of Sharebot to always have the latest version.
With care and without damaging the packaging remove the various parts and elements that fix the
printer inside the cardboard and then, by the internal metal frame, pull it out.
Do NOT pull the soft black lead from the left side and comes to the extruder: it is a power cord and NOT
handle. Proceed with the recovery from the packaging of all the parts and check that the material listed
below are all in the package:
WARNING: Do not throw away the original package. You could use it if you have to send it or move it.
In the package you’ll find:
1. Reel-carrier in assembly kit
2. Power cable
3. SD Card with a few object that we loaded for you
4. USB cable
5. Spay
6. Glass printing bed
Positioning the printer
For proper operation, the printer must work in a clean and dust-free, with an ambient temperature
between 5° C and 35° c. It is also preferable to a position away from drafts or air conditioning.
In front is the power switch, while at the bottom, in the center of the printer is the electronic part’s aera-
tion nozzle from which depends the correct circuit cooling: this must be left unobstructed.
Remember that the wire is usually in a spool and that this should be positioned on the reel-carrier in-
cluded in the packaging. The recommended position is behind the printer, on the same floor, but there
are alternative positions that depend on the presence of any walls or shelves near the machine. The
important thing is that the wire is easily accessible and you can even put multiple spools on the reel-
carrier without any hindrances or preventing the entrainment of the wire by the extruder.
For this reason, the printer may not be placed on a shelf that is at least 35 cm free space around the rear
or side.
