Designed a mount so you can use a dial gauge to get your print bed super level and dialed in. The mount has been made to fit loosely so it can be shimmed with masking tape to get a perfect friction fit on the bar. Bed leveling procedure below. This produces fantastic print quality especially when printing large parts. Also helps with adhesion.

1: Home the axis and set your nozzle height.

2: Raise the nozzle so you have about 50mm between the bottom of the X axis bar and

the print bed surface.

3: Turn the printer off.

4: Move the extruder to the center of the bar by hand.

5: Attach dial gauge to the left side of the bar (X Axis) and move the bed so dial gauge is

sitting on the bottom left corner of the bed.

6: Zero the dial gauge by moving the bezel until the needle is on the zero.

7: Pull the bed manually until the dial gauge is resting on the back left corner and adjust

the bed until the needle is on the zero again.

8: Do the same for each corner as well as the center and your bed is the most level it has

ever been.

Tip : Watch the dial as you move the plate as dial gauges are very sensitive and the needle could go more than full circle. You need to keep track of how much the gauge moved as you move the plate to each position.
