Pre-Installation Checks
Before installing the kit, there are a few things we recommend checking to make sure the
printer is in optimal condition before installing the EZABL
™
Pro kit.
1.
Make sure your bed is level if you are using springs still, use Loctite or superglue to lock
the nuts in place on the screws to prevent shifting.
a.
You can replace springs with aluminum spacers from a hardware store. We also
sell solid mount kits that integrate bed wiring strain relief and optional camera
mounts for select models on our website.
b.
Check all the wheels and eccentric nuts if your machine uses these.
2.
Run through the Z axis checks that are outlined in our knowledge base.
3.
Make sure the power cord your printer uses has a grounding plug. If you are using an
adapter and/or extension cord make sure they are also grounded. If it is not grounded
there can be electrical interference that can cause the sensor to not work
a.
If you are using a separate power adapter, make sure the power adapter/usb
power source is on the same power strip as the printer.
4.
Depending on what mount you are using, printer model, etc you may need additional
screws. Most mounts use M3 screws so it would be recommended to pick up an M3
screw assortment from TH3D, Amazon, or your local hardware store.
5.
Some printers require a bootloader to load the firmware. You will need an Arduino Uno
with some jumper wires. We sell a bootloader kit in the TH3D Shop that comes with the
Uno and ALL the cables needed.
a.
Any of the models with the 1284p chips require a bootloader.
b.
The Anets, CR-10, Ender 2, Ender 3, Ender 5, and Wanhao i3 all use the same
process for the bootloader.
c.
There is a video guide and information for flashing your bootloader at
and you will need an Arduino Uno to flash the
bootloader using our guide.
