I. Machine Assembly (Video 00:12)
First, carefully unpack the two-layer outer box of the Snapmaker A350 3-in-1 3D Printer using a utility knife. You will then find the instructions and various boxed parts for 3D printing, laser engraving/cutting, and CNC milling in order. Since there are many types of parts used for assembly, it is recommended that after removing all parts, you sort and arrange them on a table to ensure smooth assembly. (The included instruction manual also provides detailed assembly steps.)
