Slide-type Extruder mounting Plate with adjustable height / KODAMA TRINUS This extruder mount allows for easy clearance adjustment of the hotend and heatbed by sliding the extruder up and down. The plate is designed to be mounted on a 3D printer's build platform. Required Components: * Printed slide-type extruder mount * M3 screw (25-30mm long) * Two M3 screws (8-10mm long) Assembly Instructions: 1. First, adjust the heatbed level carefully. 2. Remove the original extruder mount and replace it with the slide-type extruder mount. Use the same four mounting screws as before. Tighten the screws just enough to allow the plate to slide smoothly. 3. Loosen the two adjustment screws on the mount. 4. Attach the extruder to the top of the mount using the original two mounting screws. Adjust the height of the extruder using the top screw, making sure it does not fall off. 5. Move the heatbed to a position near the middle and place a sheet of paper (such as copy paper) on it. 6. Loosen the top adjustment screw and lower the extruder until the hotend nozzle touches the paper lightly. 7. Adjust the height of the extruder using the top screw, making sure the paper moves with a gentle resistance. 8. Tighten the side mounting screws to secure the extruder in place. 9. Remove the paper and check that the clearance adjustment is complete. To confirm, print the "First Layer Calibration 100 x 100 x 0.1mm" model. If it prints smoothly, the height adjustment is complete. For more detailed instructions, please refer to this blog post.
