This mod was created to replace stock springs with softer ones. It's hard to find springs with the same lengths so I changed cable strain relief to compensate smaller length of the springs.
Stock spring:
wire diameter: 0.8mm
length: 12mm outer
diameter: 5mm
Current mode is for 0.4mm wire 15mm length springs. It helps to reduce vibrations on X.
Print settings:
Perimeters\top\bottom 4+
Filament: ABS and stronger
After running PETG part for couple of months it distorted a lot due too temperatures and force applied. Reprinted with ABS, so far no issues.
Assembly:
- Remove extruder cover by unscrewing 2 screws, 1 on each side (bottom)
- Unscrew original cable strain relief, 2 screws
- Remove original springs
- Install new springs
- Install new cable strain relief (printed part)
- Install extruder cover
- Done
