Platform calibration is one of the maintenance procedures that has to be performed before running the printer for the first time and after approximately three prints. The process of calibrating the platform involves adjusting the platform’s position and tightening the platform screw. The platform has to properly adhere to the LCD screen. Otherwise, the bottom layers of the model will not stick to platform’s surface and the print will fail. This manual shows how to carry out the platform calibration procedure.
