Quick Start Guide

The following guide allows you to check and monitor the progress of

setting up your ICARUS unit. It is recommended to check each step off

here to ensure everything is done in order and correctly.

1. Remove the four L-brackets from the bottom of the printer that attach

it to the crate. Adjust the casters, so the wheels are on the pallet.

2. Remove the machine from the pallet by gently rolling it off and move

the machine to the general area where it will be used.

3. Remove the shrink wrap from the machine and open the main door.

Inside the printer. Please remove your included filament and any other

boxes you see. Check under the blue bearing plate for boxes.

4. Level the machine using the included bubble level in the toolbox

(located inside the machine at the time of shipping).

5. Plug the 110VAC cord into the wall which is located on the rear right of

the unit, twist the red emergency stop clockwise to disengage it, and

flip the red toggle switch. The unit should now be powered on.

6. From the touch screen, temporarily disable to WiFi by pressing:

Console > Keyboard Icon > Type “M552 S0” > Enter

Note: This step is not relevant if you have the CAT5/6 version.

7. From the touch screen, select and run the following macro by pressing

the Macro button:

Macro > “Bed Leveling” > “Mesh Bed Leveling - RT”

8. Connect to a Wifi Network (page 21). Check that you can connect to

the Duet Web Control interface afterward (detailed in this manual).

Install the webcam, if desired, following the instructions from the Wyze

Cam app on your phone or tablet.

9. Install the slicer profiles from the website and –HAPPY PRINTING

Unboxing

The BFP-ICARUS 3D Printer ships in a wooden crate, weighing between 500

- 550 lbs. The crate dimensions are as follows:

ICARUS-X Crate Size: 56 x 48 x 76 (in)

Using the tools and instructions listed below, you should be able to easily

remove your ICARUS from the palette and remove the shrink wrap. The

unboxing process will require two people.

Required Tools Not Included for Unboxing

•Powered Drill with a #2 Philips bit

•Crowbar or Hammer

•Basic metric Allen key set

•19 mm or adjustable wrench

Steps for Unboxing

1. To remove the outside panels, use a crowbar or hammer to remove the

staples around the outside of the box.

2. Once the panels are removed, use a hammer or crowbar to remove

the wooden frame around the printer.

3. Once the crate is open, locate the metal L-brackets securing the

printer to the pallet. Remove the pallet side of the bracket using a drill

and the printer side using a number 4 Allen key

4. Use the 19 mm wrench to raise the stabilizer feet so the wheels are

touching the floor of the crate.

5. You and another person can now remove the printer from the crate by

carefully rolling it off. The printer should still be in the shrink wrap at this

time.

6. Move the printer approximately where it will be operated and remove

all the shrink wrap from the machine. After the shrink wrap is removed,

move the printer into its final position. As a reminder, the filament

chamber is on the right side of the machine and needs an additional

27 inches to open properly.

basics required to understand how to operate your printer using the

touchscreen. For more in depth documentation, refer to the Official

Duet3D Documentation.

Red: Software controlled emergency stop.

Yellow: Heated Bed (Left) and Hotend (Right) icons.

Blue: Current temperature in Celsius.

Orange: Temperature the printer is set to.

Green: Current position of the X, Y, and Z axis in millimeters.

Purple: Home command for each axis. The left icon is a Home All.

to home all three axes. You must Home All before attempting

to use the Move commands. You can individually home each

axis with the other three buttons.
