Manually move your
platform &
extruder
assembly to nozzle height check
position #1 and take a look at the space
between
the
brass
nozzle
tip
underneath the extruder assembly and
the build surface. Turn the wingnut
underneath the closest corner of the
build platform either clockwise or
counter-clockwise to raise or lower that
particular corner.
By raising the corner height you are bringing that part of the platform closer to
the nozzle.
By lowering the corner height you are moving that part of the platform further
away form the nozzle.
The space between the brass nozzle tip
and the build surface should be roughly
the thickness of 1 sheet of copy paper.
To be accurate, slide a sheet of copy
paper back and forth between the two
components and keep adjusting the
height until you can barely feel the
nozzle dragging down the movement of
the copy paper.
You will do this for ALL four corners. If you want to be totally accurate you can
also do this same nozzle height check procedure for the very center of the
build plate.
*Note that once you adjust the height for one of the positions then your other
previously adjusted positions may become affected and need re-adjustment.
Although tedious, the best prints are always started by having a perfectly
leveled build platform.
Your build platform leveling is now complete.
