NOTES

Do not use the printer any way other than described herein in order to avoid personal injury or property damage.
Do not place the printer near any heat source or ﬂammable or explosive objects. We suggest placing it in a cool and dustless environment.
Do not expose the printer to violent vibration or any unstable environment, as this may cause poor print quality.
Please use recommended resin to in case damage of machine.
Do not use any other power cable except the one supplied. Always use a grounded three-prong power outlet.
Do not disassemble the printer while operating the printer, so as not to aﬀect printing.
Do not wear cotton gloves when operating the printer. Such cloths may become tangled in the printers moving parts leading to burns, possible bodily injury, or printer damage.
When cleaning debris from the printer hotend, always use the provided tools. Do not touch the nozzle directly when heated. This can cause personal injury.
Clean the body of the printer with dry cloth to remove dust and bonded printing materials.
Children under 10 years old should not use the printer without supervision.
Don’t manually move the nozzle or printing platform quickly under the power-on state; otherwise, malfunction may be caused, leading to failure of operation.
Users should comply with the laws and regulations of the corresponding countries and regions where the equipment is located (used), abide by professional ethics, pay attention to safety obligations, and strictly prohibit the use of our products or equipment for any illegal purposes. Creality will not be responsible for any violators’ legal liability under any circustance.

X、E、Z -axis motor port	X、Z-axis limit switch

A.Align the ﬂat cable socker with the slot at the back of display，and then insert it.
B.Plug in the power cord.

4 Power cord x 1

Caution

Select the correct input voltage to match your local mains (115/230V)
Damage can occur if voltage is set incorrectly.
Connect the power cord and turn the power switch to 1 to turn it on.

Do not connect or disconnect the cables when the machine is powered on.

Install Display Screen

Align the two posts on the right side of the display screen with the slots of the base, and move them down to ﬁx. (As shown in the ﬁgure)

Solution for V-wheel Jamming

X/Y/Z axis V-wheel adjustment: After the machine is assembled gently dial the wheel to check whether it is idling or stuck. If this phenomenon occurs, use an open-end wrench to adjust the hexagonal eccentric isolation column to make it rotate smoothly.

Hexagonal eccentric isolation column

Bed Leveling

Motion →Auto Home→ Disable Steppers (Release the motor).

Move the nozzle the front/left leveling screw and adjust the platform height by turning the knob underneath (The thickness of a piece of A4 paper). Use a piece of A4 paper (standard printer paper) to assist with the adjustment, making sure that the nozzle lightly scratches the paper. Complete the adjustment of the screw on all 4 corners.Repeat above steps 1-2 times if necessary.Keep adjusting until there is slight resistance on the A4 paper from the nozzle.

	The nozzle is too far away from the platform, so the consumables can not adhere to the platform.
	Filament are extruded evenly, just sticking on the platform.
	The nozzle is too close to the platform, and the filament are not extruded enough, even scraping the platform.

Preheating

When you wait for the temperature to rise, hang the ﬁlament over the ﬁlament holder.

For smoother printing, the end of the filament should be cut as shown above.

Load Filament

When target temperature is reached, hold the extruding clamp by hand and insert ﬁlament into the small hole of the extruder until the nozzle position. When ﬁlaments ﬂow out of the nozzle, meaning that the ﬁlaments have been loaded.

Tips: How to Replace the Filament? 1,Cutting filament near the Extruder and slowly feed new filament until they are fed into the new filament. 2, Withdrawing the filament quickly and feeding the new faliment after nozzle preheated and filament pushed a little forward.

Start Printing

File names must be Latin letters or numbers, not Chinese characters or other special symbols.
Notes: For details on the software instructions, please refer to the slicing software manual in the storage card.
Please don’t insert or remove the storage card during printing.
