SETTING UP YOUR PRINTER

Step 1

Carefully remove your printer from the packaging by grasping the printer frame firmly with both 
hands. We recommend holding onto the packaging for future moving or shipping the printer.

CAUTION: The Allevi 3 weighs ~ 40 lbs (18.1 kg). Two people may be required to safely lift it. 
Always carry the printer by the frame/bottom.

Step 2

Once the printer is securely placed on a flat surface, connect the CORE extruders to the gantry. 
Each CORE extruder is magnetized so each will snap into place.

      Note: You can operate the printer with the CORE print heads in many different configurations. We will 
discuss further in 

"Your First Bioprint"

 later in this manual.

Step 3

Connect the red plastic air hoses to the top of the frame, and the air input junction to the port on 
the back of the frame.

Step 4

Plug the power cable into the power port located on the right side of the back of the bioprinter. 
Then plug the other side into a wall outlet.
