Place the new cover
1. Open the print head fan bracket
2. Take the new nozzle cover and hold it in the correct orientation behind the print head fan bracket. Make sure
the protruding shapes of the cover match the shapes of the holes in the bracket
3. Insert the middle tab of the nozzle cover through the slot in the print head fan bracket. From the inside of the
print head, apply pressure to the metal plate. At the same time, pull the tab through the bracket and plate until
the seal locks the cover in place
Use flat tip or round tip tweezers to pull the tab through the metal plate. This makes this action easier, as the
tab may be difficult to reach by hand.
4. Pull the right side of the nozzle cover, fold the pocket over the edge of the metal plate, and push the silicone
tab under the metal tab of the print head fan bracket. Repeat this for the left side
5. Push the front tab through the slot in the print head fan bracket, while applying pressure to the metal plate
from the inside of the printer. Make sure the seal is pushed through the plate, to lock the cover in place
6. Close the print head fan bracket and check if the new nozzle cover is correctly placed. Slide your finger across
the bottom of the print head. If the nozzle cover easily detaches from the fan bracket, it is not correctly placed.
Follow steps 3 - 5 again
If the nozzle cover is not placed correctly, it may get caught on the print. This could cause the fan bracket to
open during printing.
7. Insert both print cores, following the guide in the configuration menu
8. With the front fan bracket closed, hold the nozzle cover at both sides and slightly move it left and right. The
metal place and nozzle cover will now align themselves with the print cores
The nozzle cover should not easily detach from the fan bracket.
It is recommended to check the placement and alignment of the cover by manually lifting and lowering the
second print core. To do this, move the lift switch on the right side of the print head. Check if the fan bracket
remains closed as the second print core is lowered.
5.10 Lubricate the lead screw of the Z motor
The lead screw is connected to the Z motor and controls the movements of the Z stage. To ensure smooth
movement of the Z stage, it is recommended to periodically apply grease to the lead screw.
Over time, grease may need to be reapplied to maintain consistent and accurate movement of the Z stage. A tube
of grease is included in the accessory box of your Ultimaker S5.
1. Make sure that the build plate is positioned at the bottom of the Ultimaker S5
2. Apply a small amount of grease to the lead screw of the Z motor
3. In the Ultimaker menu, go to Configuration → Build plate
4. Select Raise and then Lower to move the build plate up and down to evenly distribute the grease
Only use the grease on the lead screw of the Z motor.
