Pre-Flight Instructions

Once these steps are completed, they do not need to be completed before each and every print in a given session. They only take a few minutes to complete and it will ensure you have a good experience with the printer.

1 Calibration

1. Under the Control tab, click “Auto Bed Mapping”.

2. This process will take a couple of minutes. You will see the nozzle moving to the bed in several locations around the bed. This is how the printer maps out the bed and knows exactly where it is.

2 Setting nozzle height

1. Place a regular sheet of paper on the printer bed, and select “Move Nozzle to Bed”.

2. After the nozzle is lowered, you should be able to move the paper under the nozzle with a small amount of friction. If you feel no friction, it means the nozzle is too high. Click on “Too High” and retest for friction. If it feels tight or you feel a lot of friction, click on “Too Low”. This will raise the nozzle slightly. Adjust the nozzle until you feel just a small amount of friction between it and the sheet of paper.

3 Instructions if you need to unload filament

1. Make sure your DeltaMaker 3D Printer is at temperature (230°C).

2. Grasp the filament directly below the extruder drive, and pinch the trigger.

3. PUSH a few centimeters of filament into the extruder, and observe a string of melted filament exiting the nozzle.

4. Then, SLOWLY PULL the filament out of the extruder, and recoil it on your filament spool.
