Also included are a spec sheet and a comprehensive parts list (erroneously titled "Spare Parts"), with illustrations and names for each part.Īfter that are the assembly instructions, replete with small diagrams, some of them a little too small for comfortable viewing. It starts with front and rear diagrams of the printer, with the parts numbered. Text is duplicated in English and Chinese throughout. The Ender-3 V2 includes a user manual, which is mostly a setup guide. Many closed-frame printers, as well as the pre-assembled Prusa i3 MK3S+, fit that profile, though the latter costs about three times as much as the V2. This is not the model to get if you are looking to simply plug and print. The V2 comes with all the tools you should need for assembly-although, as mentioned, I also needed to use one of my own wrenches to resolve an issue. Assembling the V2 was akin to the build process for the An圜ubic Vyper, taking several hours for the basic construction and a few more in troubleshooting. Building the V2 is more involved than constructing the Original Prusa Mini-for which you bolt the Y-axis assembly to the base, attach the LCD screen and spool holder, and connect some cables, and then you're good to go. During setup, you bolt together or otherwise connect the parts mentioned above. Creality doesn't sell a pre-assembled version. Setting Up the Ender-3 V2: Assembly RequiredĪn important thing to realize about the Ender-3 V2 is that it comes as a kit. Creality's Ender-5 Pro (Opens in a new window), which I tested concurrently with the V2, uses the same dowel-and-nut combo, but I was able to separate them on the first try, no wrench needed. I ultimately had to remove it using a wrench that could open wide enough to securely grasp it. Try as I might, though, I couldn’t get the nut to budge by hand. The nut comes attached to the dowel and should unscrew from it in a manner similar to opening a child-proof cap to a pill bottle. The spool-holder dowel is held in place on the spool holder with a plastic nut, about an inch in diameter.
