Prepare the Machine
Make sure that there are no prints on the build surface. Remove print(s) before the procedure that follows is started. Failure to do so can cause a collision and cause damage to the machine component(s).
- Home XYZ.
- Open the build chamber door.
- Push the E-stop button.
- Make sure that the feet of the machine are correctly adjusted.
The feet keep the machine level. A machine that is not level can move suddenly on the floor surface and cause injury or damage to machine components. Refer to the Level the Machine procedure.
- Wait until the build chamber, build platform and hot ends are at room temperature.
Adjust the Latch
Wait until all machine components are at room temperature before you continue. Some machine components can be hot if the machine was recently used. Failure to do so can cause injuries.
- With a 4 mm hex key, loosen the two screws (1) on the door latch (2).
- With a 4 mm hex key, loosen the two screws (4) on the door strike plate (3).
- Move the two screws (1) and two screws (4) to the front of their slot.
Do not tighten the screws too much. Failure to do so can cause damage to the machine component(s).
- Tighten the two screws (1) and the two screws (4).
- With a 5 mm hex key, remove the set screws (5) on the top hinge and the bottom hinge.
