Important Safety Instructions

SKILL LEVEL: ADVANCED

This product is an advanced level project and requires detailed knowledge of the mechanical nature of a 3D printer.

Machine Safety

Never reach into the machine's working area while it is running. Always shut off and unplug the printer to perform maintenance, adjustments, or repairs.

Sharp Edges

Some parts may have sharp edges and care should be exercised when handling all metal parts. Should you discover sharp edges, the best treatment is a sanding block of 80 grit sandpaper.

Electrical Wiring

The increased size of the printer will necessitate lengthening some of the wires for the printer's power supply, motors and end-stop switches.

FIRMWARE CHANGES

This kit expands the build volume of your printer. You may be required to update the firmware to take advantage of the new build volume.

Caveats

It's not really practical to document all possible slicers or how to print on a larger bed without updating firmware, so we're just going to go with Cura here and you should be able to adapt the concepts to any slicer.
