How I Bed Level The CR10S Pro V2 

Everytime I need to remember how level my bed especially after long prints i come here !!! Thank you !!

Thanks! You rock! I will be picking up my pro this weekend. Watching your videos to prepare!

I can not express just how much you helped me. Thank you!

Perfect explanation and demonstration video, thank you so much. This was the first video I watched to get the procedure to level the bed "properly". I got one of these from a good friend and did not have any manuals or anything. I know from past experiences with other printers about bed leveling with the paper trick, but all the measurement numbers and auto-leving of this one really confused me. Keep up the great content friend! P.S. I did not have a 0.2 mm gauge so I just used a cardstock flyer from the mail and it ended up working out great too 👍🏻

Exactly what I needed to get ready to set up my Kid’s Christmas gift.😊

Great tutorial - BUT. So I haven't used mine in a while, haven't moved it, but after watching a few of your videos (EXCELLENT, by the way), I thought I should level mine again. In following your steps, I could not get enough adjustment in the rear - both of them. Then it dawned on me. I tightened my adjustments all the way, then loosened them about 2 turns. Then, I did the measurement. Then repeated your steps again and it worked great!

just set up my printer and used this video still need to level it properly but was super helpful. what sort of numbers on the levelling menu after measurement are 'acceptable' is it a case of 'as close to 0 all over as possible' ?

You dont need to adjust with cold table and then with hot table. I think adjusting with hot tabe AND hot nozze is enough. Nozzle needs to be hot too for two reasons. 1 it expands too, 2 you can easily cut any excess material easily that could result in faulty measurements

Thanks for the video. Did you print with gradient? How that option works? Is with multiple filament at the same time ?

Replacing the springs with solid spacers would probably be are a good investment for ABL printers so I hear because it removes the need to adjust the bed because the level should always be the same I'm going to buy some for my ender 3 pro and see if I can get my Bl Touch working on it.

Friends - hobbyists, an interesting question here. I am looking forward to buy my first 3D printer and have chosen to go either with CR10S Pro V2, the one presented in this video or CR10 V3, but can't decide which one to go for, I am also looking forward to being able to print flexible filament. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated! Thank you!

Do you know why when my printer part moves to the right it keeps going and rattles the side? And how do I fix it?

I think this video convinced me this is the CR10 model I want.

I've got this exact same machine, but I can't get the nozzle closer to the build plate, even though ALL of my corner tension screws are totally loose. I even uses the black flat piece of plastic. I need help really bad.

i had to do .1 and for some reason it still was too high for printing any ideas my esteps are set for my extruder its printing but i usually do a bed level with a .1mm and do a level test and i adjust the z offset when its doing that till theres no material trying to pull up any ideas on why i have to do it this way?

I do all the adjustments you say. Get the bed real nice and then right before it prints it makes one last leveling adjustment on its own and makes the nozzle too high. Please help.

Ok so i noticed u ahve same issu like me Nozzel automatic put pla out when heated up without even print. why ?: that mean whe bed leveling befor print it will allready have cog on print. how u fix that?

I have a question, after I aux level the bed, all 4 corners, and hit measure, why does it reset the aux measuring I just did?

Hello, I have A Creaity CR-10 with Dual Z Axis motors. The z axis goes up and down when homing but will not go up when printing. Is this a problem with my machine or am i doing something wrong in Cura ?

Just bought myself a Creality CR10S Pro V2 because all i see on youtube is the most smoothest and flawlesly unboxing and imediately perfect working 3D printer without any problems that makes the most reliable and perfect prints you can imagine. I want to install the printer so perfect, read the manual before from A to Z and backwards so that i'm not going to make any mistakes, then looked for another dozen unboxing and installing tips on RU-vid and finally after 2 days i managed to install my printer without a problem in no time. But then.................I turned it on and................... you guess; ...... trouble started; The printer went down on the bed and made a really ignorant noise like metall that is bending ..... and it did bent (or is it benD??). The Nozzle was in the middle of the bed and was going down while the BLTouch Bed Leveling Probe was hitting the bed first, 2 times to be exactly, and then get up again before it came down without anything in the world could stop it. It really hit my Bed very hard and before i knew what was going on and powered off the machine, there was alot of damage. I have tried to recover the damage and went on, with the believe it was my own fault because i was so stupid to trust something to work right out of the box. But whatever i tried and how much video's i watched before making another attempt; the damage is getting worse and worse. BTW, after leveling it always says that Z=29,9. But the nozzle is only about 15 away from the bed. So now i have a completely brand new CR10S Pro V2 that is not working (and the bed is damaged, without warranty as i understood).. It really drives me crazy and i'm desperately in need of help. Is there anybody, preferebly in the Netherlands, that can help me please????? Thanks in advance, Gerard

I did this 4 times exactly as you did and it's done nothing, nozzle is still too high. Do you know why? Or if you have a video showing how to fix this ?

This video really useful. Thank you. In my last print my printer is printed well in edges but it failed in the middle. Have you any idea why or have any suggestion to solve this?

may i know what do you call that card board stick ??

Hi, great video. I just wanted to ask you if you have any issues with the x axis. I mean if it gets unleveled and if you have to level it again. Thanks

Did you find out how to make the printer do the 25 point autoleveling everytime when you use Octopi?

I bought my 10s pro v2 used. I didn't get that leveling block. Could you please tell me the dimensions? It's not going well, any help would be appreciated.

I would suspect many print beds like mine have the center dipped whereas the 4 corners can be several mm higher. After leveling 4 corners, my center nozzle was still way too high.

Excellent video. I am thinking of picking up one of these machines some time to add to the collection. I really like those bed clips. Where can I get myself a set of those? Keep up the good work!

What is the best starting point to level the bed? Should the 4 adjustment wheels be tight, loose or in the middle? I’ve tried all three and keep ending up running out of adjustment space and hit a limit of how high or low I can move the bed.

Nice Video! Made my first prints today! I’m impressed as it is my fist 3d printer. What is a acceptable difference in the 25 calculated points? Thank you in advance 👍🏻

The number 4 in the aux leveling screen, that side won't get any tighter to get the bed higher

I bought my v2 pro used. Can you get me the dimensions for that shim please I can’t find it to order it. I have ordered the .2 feeler gauge and full creality tool kit. I do am having great success with one print but other won’t stick at all

If there's not much difference you can adjust the eccentric nut on the X-gantry.

I have this, I did everything in your video, I have the same printer, Problem is I do all for corners and when I am in the middle it is still too low. I also upgraded to the glass bed Creality offers. What do I do if the middle is too low but the other 4 corners are perfect?

I still want this printer, 2 years old, I'm o crazy for still wanting one?

great video. you think you can skip autolevel for small prints?

When I try to adjust the bed the wheels underneath are all the way loose almost before the nozzle hits the measuring tool. I keep twisting them up halfway, adjust the cross beam to 100mm and then start leveling and the wheels underneath always adjust to almost loose when leveling. How do I fix that before I start ripping my hair out?

For some reason whenever I start a print (bed is perfectly leveled) the nozzle lifts up and when it comes back down it doesn’t go far enough down. So it’s printing on air, I cannot find a way to stop this from happening

Is it just me, or .... what is "Auto leveling for" , when you have to fiddle on screws and what not to make it correct? Shouldn't a machine in 2019-2020/2021 be able to do all this automatically? - Seems lame to me.

Hiya, not sure if you can help me here. So I levelled the bed using the .2mm metal piece and it was perfect. As soon as I start the print, it raises the nozzle in the air again miles away from the bed... any ideas? What am I doing wrong?

thank you

Does anyone have difficulty adjusting the z-axis leading rods using the black plastic piece? The left leading rod of my printer is always lower. I assume it's due to the weight of the printing head. When I release my hands after turning the rods, it will slightly turning back by its own weight, unless I hold the rods while clicking the screen to move on z-axis so the motor becomes on and locked. Once I turn off my printer, it seems to be going back to be tilting. So does it mean that I have to calibrate it every time after I turn off my printer?

Help! I've been having a longstanding issue where I level the 4 corners of the bed, but the nozzle hits onto the surface at the center. Been trying to do larger prints but these screw up

I keep doing this and when I get the four corners perfect and move to the center. The center is hitting the bed … Any suggestions?

I get 2,3,4,5 zones level with the metal 0.2mm and then zone 1 digs into the plate, I think my plate is warpped... :(

how thick is the feeler gauge for the CR10S Pro V2 ??

My nozzle just automatically goes into me bed ? Any ideas ?

I have followed all the steps in here and have the 4 corners perfectly level. My issue is My bed itself is not nearly flat. I can't get the center to be the same as the edges. I would think that having the bed levelled on the edges would at least get me a good level bed and the auto bed-levelling would account for the center being a bit higher but no matter what I do, the prints near the middle on the first layer are too high in comparison to the edges, even with auto bed levelling before the print. any ideas? I have a new glass bed coming in which should fix the problem but I feel like the bed level compensation isn't being done. anyone else experiencing this? This is brand new.

Hello. I have a new CR 10S PRO V2. After successfully manual leveling and doing the 25-point check, I try to print, but the nozzle starts to extrude PLA a few millimeters above the bed. Does anyone have an idea why that is?

My brand new printer: tap levelling icon, head lowers, touches sensor, sensor retracts, head rises, sensor drops. Head lowers, touches sensor, sensor retracts, head rises, sensor DOES NOT drop. Head lowers and wants to drive thru bed. Hit power. I’ve tried about 20 times with the same result.

I'd rather wait for the V3 and hope they will have fixed the levelling issue

using 'feel' over an actual number cool, but a dial indicator be a helluva lot faster, you can throw a machinist level in there too.

can it print with nylon? or it need to be upgraded?

eh didnt have feeler guage so did paper then used caliper to measure a printed disk till they all mesured within .01 of .2 mm

does paper work?????????????????????????????

When you level the bed, the nozzle immediately gets close to the bed for you to fine-adjust. I just got the printer, and in my case the nozzle stops probably 15cm over the bed.. How can I get it closer to the bed? I cant lower it enough with the “z-offset”. Thanks :-)

if you set zero with a 0.2 gauge then wouldn't your zero actually be 0.2?

1:39 you vaguely point at the roller and say "hold that twist that" "ill show this step in a second" but you don't show how you did it and I have no idea what you adjusted to make the spacer fit on both sides

It's still not working for me no matter what I do

I followed all of ur steps, and everything seems perfect, but when i hit home and the z axis is at 0 the nozzle digs right into the bed. Any ideas?

Auto Level works excellent… just rtfm….

not work bad tutorial.😢

Very confused man, very confusing video
