5. Tatūnga

Follow these steps for the initial setup of your printer:

1. Wewete pouaka: Carefully remove the printer and all accessories from the packaging. Inspect for any damage during transit.
2. Turanga: Place the printer on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat.
3. Hononga Hiko: Connect the power adapter to the printer and then to a suitable power outlet. Do not power on yet.
4. Tāuta Pereti Hanga: Secure the build plate onto the Z-axis arm. Ensure it is firmly attached.
5. Tāutahia te Vat Resin: Place the resin vat onto the LCD screen platform. Ensure it is seated correctly and securely.
6. Z-Axis Calibration (Leveling):
   • Loosen the screws on the build plate.
   • Place a sheet of A4 paper (or the calibration card provided) on the LCD screen.
   • Lower the build plate until it firmly presses against the paper.
   • Tighten the build plate screws while maintaining pressure.
   • Raise the build plate slightly and remove the paper.
   • Confirm the Z-axis home position through the printer's touchscreen menu.
7. Uta Resin: Once leveled, carefully pour the desired resin into the resin vat, ensuring it does not exceed the maximum fill line.

6. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere

To begin printing, follow these general steps:

1. Whakaritehia te Tauira 3D: Use a compatible slicing software (e.g., Chitubox, Lychee Slicer) to prepare your 3D model. This involves adding supports, orienting the model, and setting print parameters (layer height, exposure time, lift speed, etc.) according to your resin and desired print quality.
2. Slice Model: Slice the prepared model into layers and save it as a `.ctb` or compatible file format onto the provided USB drive.
3. Kōkuhu Puku USB: Kōkuhuhia te puku USB ki te tauranga USB o te pūreretā.
4. Select and Start Print: On the printer's touchscreen, navigate to the "Print" menu, select your file, and confirm to start the printing process.
5. Aroturuki Tā: Observe the first few layers to ensure proper adhesion to the build plate. The printer will automatically proceed with the print.
6. Tukatuka-muri: Once printing is complete, carefully remove the build plate. Use the metal scraper to detach the print from the build plate. Place the build plate on the drip hanger to allow excess resin to drip back into the vat.
7. Wash and Cure: Wash the uncured print in isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or a dedicated resin cleaner to remove excess liquid resin. After washing, cure the print under UV light (e.g., in a UV curing station) to fully harden it.

7. Tiaki

Regular maintenance ensures consistent print quality and extends the life of your printer:

• Pereti Hanga Maama: After each print, clean the build plate with IPA and a soft cloth.
• Puta Resin Ma: If changing resin colors or if there are cured resin bits in the vat, carefully empty the resin into a separate container (filter if necessary) and clean the vat with IPA and a soft cloth. Inspect the FEP film for damage.
• Tirohia te Kiriata FEP: Regularly check the FEP film at the bottom of the resin vat for scratches, dents, or cloudiness. Replace it if damaged to prevent print failures and protect the LCD screen.
• Maama LCD Mata: If resin spills onto the LCD screen, immediately clean it with a soft, lint-free cloth and IPA. Avoid using sharp objects or abrasive materials.
• Lubricate Z-Axis: Pania he iti te hinu konukōti ki te tīwiri mata o te tuaka-Z i ia wā, i ia wā, kia maeneene ai te nekehanga.
• Whakahōu Firmware: Check the official phrozen webpaetukutuku mō ngā whakahōutanga pūmanawa e wātea ana hei whakapai ake i te mahi me te tāpiri i ngā āhuatanga hou.
