CR-X Technical Notes

Z-Axis Sensor

The Z-Axis sensor is an externally mounted attachment to this printer, and must be

attached to the machine before turning the machine on. It is secured by two channel

nuts, which will turn and lock into place while tightening. The Z-axis sensor must be

mounted with the bottom of the sensor mounting in line with the base of the printer.

Levelling the bed

Like any printer, the bed must be levelled before use. This brings the nozzle to the

correct distance to the bed, and also accounts for any irregularities in the two z-axis

motors. Levelling the corners should be enough, but you can pre-heat the bed to get a

flat surface and level the centre as well. You should level so that you can feel slight

resistance when trying to remove a piece of paper, and the plastic should stick to the

bed without hassle.

Nozzle too far from bed

Nozzle too close to bed

Plastic not sticking (PLA)

Plastic not extruding

Plastic comes off mid print

Plastic has rough edges on first layer

Paper slides between bed and nozzle

easily

Takes force to move paper between

nozzle and bed.

CR-X Technical Notes

Loose/wobbly head

If the extruder head wobbles or can be shaken by hand on the X-axis railing, you must

tighten the tension nut to a point where it stops wobbling, then a slight turn after that.

The tension nut is located behind the bottom wheel, as part of the axle; this brings the

bottom wheel up closer towards the rail. Use the included spanner or a spanner from our

TH1910 set.

Nozzle assembly / thermocouple replacement

The front shield / fan-housing of the extruder can be easily removed by 2-3 screws on

the front of the extruder. Within, the nozzle is attached by a further 2 screws, which

mount it on to the base plate. From this point it should be easy to remove and replace

the nozzle, heater, or thermocouple when needed.

CR-X Technical Notes

Blockages should not occur at the nozzle and should be more prone to other areas;

which can be easily removed by disassembling the nozzle assembly. TH1766 would

help with this, as with TD2132.

Thermocouple errors usually show through abnormally high temperature readings while

the nozzle is still cold to touch. It is held in place by a small screw located on the side of

the nozzle.
