4. Navodila za namestitev

The Aquila X2 comes semi-assembled. Follow these steps to complete the setup:

4.1 Montaža

  1. Razpakirajte komponente: Previdno odstranite vse dele iz embalaže.
  2. Attach Gantry: Secure the gantry to the base using the provided screws. Ensure it is aligned correctly.
  3. Install Spool Holder: Mount the filament spool holder onto the designated position on the frame.
  4. Povežite kable: Connect all motor, endstop, and hotend cables according to the labels. Double-check connections for security.
  5. Preverjanje napajanja: Verify the power supply switch is set to the correct voltagza vašo regijo (115 V ali 230 V).

4.2 Initial Leveling

Accurate bed leveling is crucial for successful prints.

  1. Vklop: Vklopite tiskalnik.
  2. Auto Home: Navigate to the 'Prepare' menu on the screen and select 'Auto Home'. The nozzle will move to the home position.
  3. Onemogoči steperje: Select 'Disable Steppers' from the 'Prepare' menu to move the print head freely.
  4. Adjust Corners: Move the nozzle to each corner of the print bed. Use a piece of paper between the nozzle and the bed. Adjust the bed leveling knobs until there is slight friction when moving the paper.
  5. Center Check: Repeat the process for the center of the bed.

5. Navodila za uporabo

This section covers basic operation, from loading filament to starting your first print.

5.1 Vstavljanje filamenta

  1. Predgrevanje: On the printer's screen, select 'Prepare' > 'Preheat PLA' (or appropriate filament type).
  2. Insert Filament: Once the hotend reaches temperature, insert the filament into the filament detection sensor and then into the extruder's input hole.
  3. Feed Filament: Gently push the filament until it exits the nozzle. You may need to press the extruder lever to release tension.

5.2 Začetek tiskanja

  1. Priprava G-kode: Use a slicing software (e.g., Cura, VoxelMaker) to convert your 3D model (.STL, .OBJ) into a G-code file. Shrani to file to the provided SD card.
  2. Vstavite kartico SD: Insert the SD card into the printer's card slot.
  3. Izberite File: On the printer's screen, navigate to 'Print' and select your desired G-code file.
  4. Monitor tiskanja: The printer will begin heating and then start printing. Monitor the first few layers to ensure proper adhesion.
