Things to do, before/after following the build guide

[tankanickel]

After/Before following the build guide, quite a few things should/need to be done. (this is a non-complete list of the things I had to do or did myself)

Before:

• Check all the screws that are accessible on the base
• Open the bottom panel (while the base is sitting on foam) without using to much force pushing the base down
• Check all the screws on the different components
• Check if the SSR module has the cover placed on it
• Grease all the linear rail carriages, that are not greased yet (some might be pre greased, in my case I had to grease all of them)

After:

• Turn the build plate around and remove the plastic foil protecting the surface of the smooth PEI sheet
• Check, that the X-Carriage cable is behing the z-axis belt and not in front of it (cable would squish the belt, if it is in front of it)
• Check the toolhead for loose wires and missing zip-ties
• Check the X/Y-Belt tension (might be too high)
• Update the Firmware on the board as well as the display (according to the TeamGloomy tutorial, replace the board.txt aswell)
• Change the recommended settings for e-steps, motor voltage and everything mentioned in the tutorial
• Do a PID-Tuning for the bed, as well as the hotend
• Do a Gantry calibration and a bed calibration afterwards (creating a sensible heightmap)
• Check for bed imperfections (using a ruler on the bed in different orientations to check for gaps; remove the steel sheet for this, but do not forget to put it back afterwards!)
• Do the Z-Offset calibration for the nozzle-bed distance
• Adjust the extruder filament pressure

don't forget to put the Z Pin in the switch hole.
