Leveling Platform
Go to ‘Utilities’ and select ‘level bed platform.’
Tighten the knobs under the build platform, by tightening you are pulling the leveling spring
down, therefore lowering the platform
Press ‘M’ after the completed task(s)
The extruder will move to the central back portion of the platform.
Adjust the back central knob by loosening and tightening the spring.
Take a thin piece of paper and slide it under the extruder. Adjust the knob until paper is easy to
slide under the extruder but there should be some friction.
NOTE: the three springs under the bed are the levelers; you will adjust these to level the bed.
When tightening the springs, the bed lowers, when loosening the spring, the bed is being
raised.
