Key Notes Before Start

Stable Printing Environment

Store your 3D printer in a dry and ventilated environment. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Ensure it is placed on a flat surface.

Protective Measures

While printing and using resin, please wear gloves, masks, protective goggles, and long-sleeved clothing for personal protection.

Maintenance

Clean the Z-axis

First, dry clean the Z-axis T-screw. Then apply a thin layer of general lubricant on it to ensure smooth operation.

Clean the 3D Printer

Use sanitizing alcohol and tissue paper to carefully clean the printer, the resin vat, and the building plate.

Prepare Your 3D Printer

For first-time use, follow these steps to conduct the LCD Test and calibrate your Z-axis.

LCD Test

1. Click on TOOLS. Then click on LCD TEST.
2. Check if the LCD screen displays the same image as seen on the touch panel.
3. When the LCD screen clearly displays the image, the LCD TEST is complete.

Z-axis Calibration

1. Click on TOOLS. Then click on Z CALIB.
2. Remove the resin vat. Place a piece of A4 paper on the LCD. Unscrew the 4 screws on the sides of the building plate.
3. Wait until the building plate touches the LCD screen.
4. Then tighten all 4 screws. Tug the paper to ensure it can't be moved easily. Click DONE to finish calibration. Wait until the building plate retracts to the TOP.
5. Z-axis Calibration is now complete.

Perform the Printing Test

After completing the Z-axis Calibration and LCD Test, proceed to the Printing Test.

Prepare Your 3D File

1. On your computer, import the STL file into CHITUBOX V1.7.0 or above.
2. Add a new printer named "Sonic Mighty 4K". Set your Print Parameters according to the resin you will use.
3. Slice the 3D file and save it as a CTB file, then import it onto your USB drive.
4. File preparation is complete.

Printing Test

1. Install the building plate and resin vat onto your Sonic Mighty 4K.
2. Ensure the resin vat and building plate are clean and free of any residual resin.
3. Shake the resin bottle for 1 minute. When pouring, do not exceed the MAX mark on the resin vat.
4. Insert your USB drive into the Sonic Mighty 4K. Select the file and click GO to begin printing.
5. Keep the plastic case closed during printing to prevent excessive UV light exposure.
6. Once printing is complete, remove the build plate from the printer. Tilt the build plate onto a table and use the metal scraper to carefully remove your print.
7. Use 95% sanitizing alcohol or Phrozen Wash Resin Cleaner to rinse your printed model. Then cure your models with a Post-Curing Chamber. Your first print is complete.
