HOMING Z – AXIS
12. When homing the Z-axis for
the first time, you should
be prepared to power the
device off in case
something goes wrong.
The
heatbed
and
specifically the glass on
the heatbed might shatter if
the extruder assembly
pushes the heatbed beyond
its normal limits !
13. When homing the Z-axis
push the Z-axis endstop with
a screwdriver before the
extruder nozzle touches the
glass. If the Z-axis motors
stop, the endstop is
functional. Next, check if the
Z-screw on the left side of the
X-axis is aligned perfectly
above the endstop. If it is,
then push the Z-home button
again and let the printer find
it's home position.
Be ready to power the device off in
case something goes wrong !
