The M3D Crane QuadFusion 4 Filament Spool Guide is your go-to resource for mastering the intricacies of filament management within this cutting-edge 3D printing technology. This comprehensive guide takes you by the hand, walking you through each step necessary to ensure seamless operation and optimal print quality. To get started, locate the spool holder on the Crane QuadFusion's build platform. It is conveniently positioned to facilitate easy loading and unloading of filament spools. **Spool Holder Adjustment** Locate the adjustable spool holder arm situated below the spool holder. Rotate it until the arm aligns with the center mark. Securely fasten it into place using the provided screw. **Loading Filament** Gently pull out about 10 inches of filament from the spool, leaving some slack at the end. Hold the filament between your thumb and index finger. Guide the filament into the extruder's input port, making sure not to pinch or crease the material. **Tightening the Filament** With the filament in place, carefully pull it taut until there is no slack left. Rotate the spool holder arm clockwise while keeping a steady grip on the filament. This action will tighten the filament, ensuring smooth and consistent feeding. **Final Check** Double-check that the filament is properly seated within the extruder's input port. Any irregularities or misalignment can cause print quality issues.
