This guide shows the installation on an Ultimaker 2 with Extrusion Upgrade Kit.
Start by removing the material from your
printer(https://ultimaker.com/en/resources/18013-removing-the-filament). After the
filament is removed, power off the printer.
●Rotate the printer so you can
access the rear side.
●Remove the collet clip, which
locks the bowden tube into place.
●Unplug the bowden tube.
Installation manual Bondtech DDG Ultimaker V2.0
●Unscrew the 2 x M3 screws that
hold the original geared Ultimaker
feeder into place.
●Remove the feeder.
Place the Bondtech feeder assembly
against the rear back plate.
Insert the remaining 2 x M3 screws and
tighten down.
Installation manual Bondtech DDG Ultimaker V2.0
●Insert the bowden tube.
●Add the blue collet clip to lock the
the bowden tube into place.
You successfully upgraded your feeder!
●Now you just need to configure
the software of your 3d printer to
start printing again.
Ultimaker 3
Follow the guide for the Ultimaker 2+ and Ultimaker 2 Extended + twice. Use the
feeder labeled 2 the second time you follow the guide.

Software Configuration
Ultimaker 2+ and Ultimaker 2 Extended +
The Ultimaker’s firmware needs to be changed since the new feeder uses another E-
step value and also the speed for loading/unloading material needs to be lowered in
order not to stall the stepper motor. The reason for this is that the Bondtech Dual
Drive system has a different drive gear diameter and needs a bit more torque while
loading due to gripping the filament on both sides. The additional grip allows to push
the material with higher force and reliability.
Below you will find links to the latest firmware that is based on original Ultimaker 2.1
firmware.
The following is changed when compared to the original:
E-step is now 311 and Loading speed is 50 mm/sec
Attention!
Please make sure that you use the correct version for Ultimaker 2+ or Ultimaker 2
Extended +, if you load the firmware for Ultimaker 2 Extended + into a Ultimaker 2+
you will crash the head into the printing surface.

Ultimaker 2 Extended + Firmware: Link
Once you have downloaded the firmware use Cura to install the new custom
firmware on your printer.
After the firmware has been installed you need to perform a “Factory reset” on the
printer to ensure that the printer uses the new values in the firmware.
After the restore to factory settings is complete you will have to level your build plate
and load material (the same procedure as when the printer was new).

Ultimaker 3
PC
Start the printer.
We recommend to download and install the latest firmware as it fixes problems and
adds extra functionality. Please read the Ultimaker guide
(https://ultimaker.com/en/resources/20500-upgrade-firmware) on how to update the
firmware if you are not sure how to install the latest firmware.
Once firmware is installed enable the developer mode.
●System -> Maintenance -> Diagnostics -> Developer mode
Your Ultimaker 3 will reboot.
Download a SSH/Telnet client like Putty (http://www.putty.org) and install it on your
computer.
Locate the IP number of your Ultimaker 3. The IP address is shown on the main
screen of the printer on the first line as well as in System -> Network on the last line.
For this example we use the following IP address: 192.168.1.133
Please read the whole guide from this point at least once before changing the values
on your own machine.
Open Putty and enter the IP-address in the Host Name field and click on Open.
