I'm brand new to 3D printing. I bought a refurbished ender 3 S1 Pro. I thought I received a bad unit but thanks to your video I fixed the issues it had. Thank you soooo much.
I've just followed these steps you told on the video in my ender 3 s1. It literally solved EVERY problem I was having with the surface of my prints! I'm so happy right now!!!!!
Incredible video. After a few months of great prints I noticed my S1 was producing bulging layers and I was having confusing issues with first layer/leveling. In my case all of the axis were properly tuned but the Sprite itself had come loose from the mount (all of the screws around the tensioner were extremely lose) and was wobbling freely! Very simple fix and now it’s back to perfect printing.
Just got an Ender 3 and after a couple of failed print , I found your channel. I didn't know there was so much to adjust, especially the part about the wheels on the vertical rail. Amazing video, I really like how you take time to explain how each adjustement affect the printer. Well explained and easy to understand for a beginner. You got a new follower ! Thanks
When I did my initial setup, I didn’t do half these things. After 3 months of printing and getting pretty good prints but uneven layers I did all of this and the quality is like night and day. Thanks for the brief but precise explanation and getting my prints to a higher level.
This is the exact video I wish I'd had getting into 3d printing and the kind of video I've been thinking about making myself for the past few weeks. But here it is! Sending this to anyone who wants to get into 3d printing that I know.
I can add to 8:00 that something that is also overlooked is that one of the two z axis mig be higher or lower then the other, this will also make one of the two sidewheel have different amount of traction. I had to losen the belt at the top, then manually turn one of the z bars, just a little bit, and then it was in level. I did this by moving the printer head to the max, manually

Bed warp is another major issue with these printers. Mine is really bad, but I was able to get it close to flat with foil tape. I've always had a ringing problem. Being my first 3D printer, I just thought it was normal and sanding them out was just part of the process. I'll be going over everything you mentioned now.
ALLOT of people think their bed is warped, but, in reality, it isn't. Check out my leveling and ABL video as well. Layer lines will tend to exist in some form, but, should be minor. I think you'll find improvement if you run down this video. Good luck!
This is it. This is the video. Very well explained helped a lot and the prints improved massively. On the topic of the print speeds tho: isnt the speed setting almost irrelevant as long as the acceleration is low enough. Because inaccuracy are usually caused by massive accelearations. And for small parts or pints speeds in the tripple digits wont actually be achieved if you keep the acceleration reasonable. But for larger parts the printer can save some time on long straight lines without sacrificing quality. Obviously you need to have the flow to match the print speed
I loved how you said you will mention all the important parts but only briefly but still gave the most detailed check-correct method of eccentric nuts hahaha.
Amazing video. I've been Printing and modifying my Ender 3 Pro for about 4 months now. I just got this printer refurbished and you gave me some good extra details I was not paying attention to before.
I want to thank you so much i resolved all my problems with the printer thanks to your video. I love your format and clear explanation I can see that you are a really hard worker. You are so underrated and you got a new subscriber😊 keep on going you deserve so much more!
After tightening all the loose components, using Oldham couplers on the lead screws, and flexible couplers sitting on thrust washers for the Z motors. That fixed 95% if the problem. I never thought an issue could be the memory card! I was indeed using a crappy one. Problem solved! Many thanks illustrating an easily overlooked issue.
Great Video. You go at a pace that is really easy to follow as well as providing great information. I struggled with my new printer for a few days before finding this video. My printer is now tuned up about as well as I can get it. Keep turning out the good videos!

Your video has been tremendously helpful, your channel is underrated! I'm embarrased to say how long I've been running my refurbished Ender 3 S1 Pro without touching any of those loose eccentric nuts. Thank you!
Just wanted to drop a "thank you"! I was having issues with my new Ender 3 S1, and was starting to get frustrated. My extruder tensioner was quite loose, and extruder assembly was loose, the brass pieces on the back were lose, and I tightened up the belts of bed a little more. After doing all that and slowing the print speed just as you suggested, its a game changer. I was having significant issues getting the first layer down without being either too smushed, not smushed enough, lack of adhesion to the bed, etc. All of those issues are now gone and my prints are coming out "perfect" (in comparison to how they were before). There's always more tuning that can be done, but at least now I'm off to the races.
You're very welcome. It does kinda never end with these things, but that's just part of the the game. You'll get used to it, and you'll get better at it, till it becomes less of a headache, and more of a routine. Stick around, and we'll suffer together. #SuperThanks
Thank you! Gaps between all my lines were driving me nuts, I tried tweaking: temp, z-offset, speed, leveling, retest, etc, and after seeing this video I checked the tension of the two belts and increased it (in both) and...that was it! Almost perfect first layer!
About the tensioner: I saw a video suggesting to look at the "bite marks" on the filament when you pull it out. They should not look like the filament is squished or nearly cut through, nor should they be too superficial. These marks give you a nice hint whether the extruder has enough grip. Here, you also should be able to see if the extruder gear is worn out in case lots of abrasives were printed
You are a Superstar. I purchased an Ender 3 S1 Plus last November and followed your well easy to follow guide very professional and non patronising like some video's, my prints have been ok, as a new venture into 3D Printing. But I have just seen this video ok its for a S1 Pro but it seems to be generic. Thank you so much almost everything you raised was loose, but without viewing your great video I wouldn't have known. Thank you Once again. Kind regards Steve UK
Pro Tip: The S1 PRO and S1 PLUS, use the same screen and firmware. ALL the S1 builds are virtually identicle. Only the PLUS is bigger. So, do learn up on all the S1 models, and it will help you out! As for not Patronising..... I'm just one of you guys! Happy to have you. 🤛🏼🤜🏼 #SuperThanks
Wish I found this far earlier. Best starting place for anyone trying to fix problems. One more recommendation: My Z axis were not at equal height. The bar always looked a bit diagonal. I manually turned on the side that was lower on the coupler that is attached to the screw base and it slipped over two belt positions until it was aligned with the motor on the other side. Now it is straight
Really one of the best videos out there on this topic. You've not only provided an explanation for why things keep going south on my prints, but also shown the ways to fix it. A question: you made it clear that both wheels on the left rail should be equally tight to each other, and that both wheels on the right should be equally tight to each other; but should all four wheels be equally tight as a group as well? Seems like they should, but I don't want to assume.
@@3DRundown the issue i was having was that my z offset would change every time i used auto home, as well as the more typical ringing issue. i actually had two causes, the z rod on one of my stepper motors was not properly secured, and the gantry that travels up and down was no longer straight (one of the wheels was barley making contact)
Thanks a lot, so much clearer than Creality aftersales vids. Thanks to your video, I've noticed one of my z axis wheels was turning loose and I've been able to fix that. I've also greased a little the z endless screw with unilube. I don't know if it'll be perfect (print is still in progress) but it seems to be better than before. You have a new subscriber :)
Thank you! Just checked everything you went over aside from the slicer settings and my prints are already night and day ! Going to try your recommended slicer settings after this test print. I was most defiantly a victim of extruder wobble lol
I love your channel and content. Thank you for your informational, problem solving, and upgrade tutorial videos for Ender and Bambu printers. I think my favorite thing is that you are not doing the overly-enthusiastic performative personality and presentation. You always seem mildly annoyed by existence itself, and I appreciate that.

Awesome. These comments sure help it feel worth the time that went into this! Happy to help. Update me on anything specic that was happeneing, and what fixed it! Will be great for future visitors.
@@3DRundown I had issues with the rollers not being equally snug when adjusting the eccentric nuts on the Z. I wasn't ware you could loosen the nut you pointed out at 7:50 (th-cam.com/video/pP36ozrfRQ0/w-d-xo.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE&t=469).
your videos helped me a lot since this 10 months after I started this hobby and I bought the s1 because it was the best choise at the moment in our market in Argentina, then I bought another one, now I have 2 and I needed your videos for practicly every single problem, even for the glass bed. So thank you very much. It would be nice if you can post the video for the e-steps explanation, I'm using klipper right now. Cheers!
thank you, I'm one of those who use 3d printing to create ideas, not to do 3d printing with the desire to tinker around with the printer. My Ender 3 S1 was printing worse and worse, i now have another one (i wanted to get a bambu with AMS either way), but now i watched you video and quickly managed to bring my ender 3 s1 back into the game, it was just some tensioning i never thouzght about before! Thank you very much for this short, straight to the point, easy to follow video. One thing I noticed: in your video it is not clear, which nut you tightened for the extruder, because your hand is in front of it every time you screw ^^ but its easy to find the information.

Thanks so much. Consider adding the HIGH-FLOW kit, and a Sonic Pad to your S1 (I have a High-Flow Kit install video). OR: Get an Ender 3 V3 KE or CR10-SE. However, there are ways to help with prints times, on the slicing side. While I am not somebody that focuses on speed, perhaps a video on that topic would be helpful.
Great video. In video is mentioned that link to SanDisk card will be shared in description. I cant find it . Can you share link to card and adapter for card ?
GREAT CONTENT HERE! I just received this printer for my son, for X-mas and looking forward to setting it up for him. This video will definitely help getting the initial setup perfect, but why can't I save this video on my watch later que???
This is my #2 most watched video ever, and I made it out of neccessity. Please do follow it, and also be sure to follow my Tramming and ABL video for this printer. You'll have a much better experience, getting this all out of the way up front. Also.... I have no idea!?! You should be able to...
Thanks for super good tutorial! Clear and explanatory. Saves a lot of time for people who are trying to figure out why their printer prints crap :D I fixed all of those issues mentioned in this video.
Liked and Subscribed! this was a super easy video to follow and was able to do the same adjustments on my s1 plus. Did not even know about halve of these!
Estoy viendo tu video, me compre esta misma impresora y soy principiante, me pasó que la cama choca hacia adelante y hace tope, también hace un riido horroroso a veces en el eje x, todavía estoy pensando que es lo que puede ser, buen video para este tipo de máquina (me ayudó mas que el manual) saludos desde Argentina
i just got a hardly used ender 3 s1 and have been trying to set it up, its not my first printer but it is my first with a heated bed, dual z`s and self leveling. my layer height seems ok but iv been having issues with my Z lines, printed 8 rabbits and making slight adjustments each time and still no good. just watched this video and found out i didnt check the 4 screws on the Z rods, they were very loose. just strating a new print so i will find out in 30 mins to see if this has helped lol!!! great videos, very detailed and to the point. keep up the good work!!!
This is a wonderful video, and after it I began to understand the mechanics of the printer a lot more and now I feel more confident) During the adjustment of the Z-axis rollers, for a long time I could not understand where the small backlash came from, I clamped and loosened those small crossbar screws and the eccentric several times until I realized that it was the backlash of the axis itself on the screw) Also, I additionally tightened the screws on the wheel axles, because they rest against the inside of the bearing and nothing bad will happen? Additionally, I want to add about checking the parallelism of Z beams. I had a discrepancy of 0.5 mm at the top and bottom of the beams. Loosening the window at the bottom of the printer did not help, the frame did not move in that place, and I just tightened the two bolts a little tighter next to each other, on the side. This was enough for my 0.5 mm, and there was even a margin for a stronger adjustment. And again about Z. Lifting the axle to the very top, I found that the train was stretched and did not allow it to reach the end. I moved it a little into the mount, and now the axle gets out. It is worth checking in advance before printing on the topmost point.
Maybe you can help me but I have absolutely no problems with small prints. But big prints seem to go wrong. Especially when its laying down the first layer. Its almost like its missing whole spots.and when it misses those spots it fucks up the rest of the print. Sometimes it causes my head to get jammed.
This helped a lot! Thank you! For me, I think it was the Cura settings that helped the most. I’m getting some layer tears every once in a while and I’m not sure why. The rest of the model looks great, but it’ll be a small section of the layer by the z seam. Any recommendations?
Can email me. Email is in my ABOUT Section. Can also find me on Instagram, and FB under the same handle. Of course, if you pop onto my course 3DRUNDOWN.COM, or Patreon: www.patreon.com/3DRUNDOWN, it's even easier to reach me.
How would I go about installing and different firmware and which would I choose? I’ve seen people needing to purchase SonicPads for stuff like that and it looked quite daunting. Also, great video! I haven’t been able to find anyone else doing tweaks to the Ender 3 S1.
Sonic pad isn't so bad. Don't be afraid. It DOES require some new learning, but, it's not too bad. Firmware is pretty easy. You do it via memory card. I would use MRISCOC for the S1 (not the pro). Firmware goes on a card. Card in machine. Turn it on. That's it. You may also need to update the screen, the same way. There is a slot on the screens PCB.
A.) cut it, crimp it tighter, with a copper buckle: amzn.to/3Ujl6vU B.) Get a new belt & buckle set: amzn.to/3HuFEKp C.) Get one pre-made: amzn.to/3SykjGw
Would it be a good idea if you disassemble the screws of both stepper motors and perform the calibration of the eccentric nut without the assembly of the screws? because yesterday I watched your video and started checking my 3D printer calibration. Then, I noticed that both of the cars where the X axle slides, at a certain height, one of the two wheels stops touching the aluminum profile, but at a different height, the tires do touch the entire profile. Why is that?
This is fairly common. Tiny deviation in the angle of the gantry. I have never worry about it much. If it's getting REALLY tight, or REALLY loose, higher up, you can bring it up, then, adjust the eccentrics there... Some people go crazy, squaring up everything. I can tell you, I have never bothered with that...
dig your videos sir. i bet your hilarious in RL....for some reason ;D lol subscribed thx for giving your time to make this and sharing your knowledge, wisdom, and time with us, the....collective consciousness ;D
@@3DRundown dont tell me your an ACTUAL clown...like...as in...my buddy clowns for a living? cuz if you are ive got to give myself a trophy on picking it out thru an instructional video.... but if you mean "clown in your heart" then all i can say is takes one to know one 🤣
I very much dislike the S1. Mine has been a royal pain. That said, lot's of Sprites are out in the wild, on all sorts of machines and people are having good success with them. My S1+, prints massive masks in Silk Silver, flawlessly. I don't think it's the Sprite. I think it's poor assembly and Q/C
For some reason I was pritting a figure and in the middle of it the printer did an offset and started printing a little behind. Why this happened? Lost filament and 7h 😅
I've been tinkering with mine for weeks and I don't think it's a problem where it generates some ripples in the vertical, looking like resonance, making 3mm cubes at 30/35mhs, it's very noticeable and a low speed for this printer. I don't know where else to turn because I've already done countless tests, including testing with very tight, medium, loose straps, etc. The printer is very firm, I disassembled it completely, cleaned all the areas that had dirt on them, thinking it would solve the problem and I can't solve the problem.
I have 2 Sonic pad here since launch. Both still in the box.... I am going to have to dip into that eventually. Probably soon. I do run a large FB Group for the Sonic Pad.
Hi, when adjusting the gantry wheels, hogy firm should the single inside wheel be? For me they are super tight and they get tighter as I go lower and lower on the Z axis.
You should be able to turn them with 2 fingers, and should feel firm-ish. Sounds like the sides are a little miss aligned. Loosen their nuts a little. Move Z all the way up and down. Tighten them.
Advice at 09:00 to fix unequal load to the wheels does not work. Loosing the two screws on the rear and tightening them again does not habe any effect...

Bed warp is another major issue with these printers. Mine is really bad, but I was able to get it close to flat with foil tape. I've always had a ringing problem. Being my first 3D printer, I just thought it was normal and sanding them out was just part of the process. I'll be going over everything you mentioned now.
ALLOT of people think their bed is warped, but, in reality, it isn't. Check out my leveling and ABL video as well. Layer lines will tend to exist in some form, but, should be minor. I think you'll find improvement if you run down this video. Good luck!
Thanks! Great Information, and thorough explanation in the video.
I can't tell you how much "Super Thanks" helps and is appreciated. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🤜🏼🤛🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is it. This is the video. Very well explained helped a lot and the prints improved massively. On the topic of the print speeds tho: isnt the speed setting almost irrelevant as long as the acceleration is low enough. Because inaccuracy are usually caused by massive accelearations. And for small parts or pints speeds in the tripple digits wont actually be achieved if you keep the acceleration reasonable. But for larger parts the printer can save some time on long straight lines without sacrificing quality. Obviously you need to have the flow to match the print speed
I loved how you said you will mention all the important parts but only briefly but still gave the most detailed check-correct method of eccentric nuts hahaha.
I never know WTF I'm actually doing. I just wing it all 😂😂
Amazing video. I've been Printing and modifying my Ender 3 Pro for about 4 months now. I just got this printer refurbished and you gave me some good extra details I was not paying attention to before.
Thank you!
Epic. Thank you. These help SO much! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🫶🏼🔥
I want to thank you so much i resolved all my problems with the printer thanks to your video. I love your format and clear explanation I can see that you are a really hard worker. You are so underrated and you got a new subscriber😊 keep on going you deserve so much more!
wow, this means allot. Thanks so much! These videos are incredibly time consuming. Messages like this make my day! #SuperThanks
After tightening all the loose components, using Oldham couplers on the lead screws, and flexible couplers sitting on thrust washers for the Z motors. That fixed 95% if the problem. I never thought an issue could be the memory card! I was indeed using a crappy one. Problem solved!
Many thanks illustrating an easily overlooked issue.
I wish there was a way, I could get this message in front of EVERY 3D printer owner. It's critical. Happy to get you there! 🔥🔥🔥
Great Video. You go at a pace that is really easy to follow as well as providing great information. I struggled with my new printer for a few days before finding this video. My printer is now tuned up about as well as I can get it.
Keep turning out the good videos!
Thanks so much. My pace is 100% Deliberate. I'm blabber a mile a minute in real life. 😂😂 Welcome to the party!
you are the goat!!!!! thank you so much iv been struggling with this printer for over a year. It has caused me great dissapointment. THANK YOU!!!!
Love it. Very welcome. Thanks for being here. Now go make fun stuff!!

Your video has been tremendously helpful, your channel is underrated! I'm embarrased to say how long I've been running my refurbished Ender 3 S1 Pro without touching any of those loose eccentric nuts. Thank you!
Very welcome! And you're not the 1st one to do this...
Just wanted to drop a "thank you"! I was having issues with my new Ender 3 S1, and was starting to get frustrated. My extruder tensioner was quite loose, and extruder assembly was loose, the brass pieces on the back were lose, and I tightened up the belts of bed a little more. After doing all that and slowing the print speed just as you suggested, its a game changer. I was having significant issues getting the first layer down without being either too smushed, not smushed enough, lack of adhesion to the bed, etc. All of those issues are now gone and my prints are coming out "perfect" (in comparison to how they were before). There's always more tuning that can be done, but at least now I'm off to the races.
You're very welcome. It does kinda never end with these things, but that's just part of the the game. You'll get used to it, and you'll get better at it, till it becomes less of a headache, and more of a routine. Stick around, and we'll suffer together. #SuperThanks
Thank you! Gaps between all my lines were driving me nuts, I tried tweaking: temp, z-offset, speed, leveling, retest, etc, and after seeing this video I checked the tension of the two belts and increased it (in both) and...that was it! Almost perfect first layer!
About the tensioner: I saw a video suggesting to look at the "bite marks" on the filament when you pull it out. They should not look like the filament is squished or nearly cut through, nor should they be too superficial. These marks give you a nice hint whether the extruder has enough grip. Here, you also should be able to see if the extruder gear is worn out in case lots of abrasives were printed
Yup. Don't over-do it. Over tightening is super common. I have never worn out an extruder gear. Firm but not tight
Finally a word on how firm the roller wheels should be! Thank you 🙏
Thank you for the video man. I owned my s1 for almost a year and didn’t do 90 percent of the tuning till now.
You are a Superstar. I purchased an Ender 3 S1 Plus last November and followed your well easy to follow guide very professional and non patronising like some video's, my prints have been ok, as a new venture into 3D Printing. But I have just seen this video ok its for a S1 Pro but it seems to be generic.
Thank you so much almost everything you raised was loose, but without viewing your great video I wouldn't have known.
Thank you Once again.
Kind regards
Steve UK
Pro Tip: The S1 PRO and S1 PLUS, use the same screen and firmware. ALL the S1 builds are virtually identicle. Only the PLUS is bigger. So, do learn up on all the S1 models, and it will help you out! As for not Patronising..... I'm just one of you guys! Happy to have you. 🤛🏼🤜🏼 #SuperThanks
@@3DRundown your a true gentleman. Thank you 🙏
Wish I found this far earlier. Best starting place for anyone trying to fix problems. One more recommendation: My Z axis were not at equal height. The bar always looked a bit diagonal. I manually turned on the side that was lower on the coupler that is attached to the screw base and it slipped over two belt positions until it was aligned with the motor on the other side. Now it is straight
Thank you so much. I'm going to tackle this tomorrow. Best greetings from Australia.
I love AU, so much so... That I literally had a conversation, 5 minutes ago, with a friend that visited there!! Greetings from NJ, USA, Mate!
Thanks!
Thank you friend! "Super Thanks" mean alllot to me!
Really one of the best videos out there on this topic. You've not only provided an explanation for why things keep going south on my prints, but also shown the ways to fix it. A question: you made it clear that both wheels on the left rail should be equally tight to each other, and that both wheels on the right should be equally tight to each other; but should all four wheels be equally tight as a group as well? Seems like they should, but I don't want to assume.
The key takeaway here, is that the bed should be stable, and not wobble AT ALL. Focus on that.
@@3DRundown Sorry, I was unclear, I meant the vertical posts holding the gantry.
this resolved the issues i was having with inconsistent z axis.
very much appreciated.
Epic. For future visitors: What was the Issue, and the specific fix for you?
@@3DRundown the issue i was having was that my z offset would change every time i used auto home, as well as the more typical ringing issue.
i actually had two causes, the z rod on one of my stepper motors was not properly secured, and the gantry that travels up and down was no longer straight (one of the wheels was barley making contact)
Thanks a lot, so much clearer than Creality aftersales vids. Thanks to your video, I've noticed one of my z axis wheels was turning loose and I've been able to fix that. I've also greased a little the z endless screw with unilube. I don't know if it'll be perfect (print is still in progress) but it seems to be better than before. You have a new subscriber :)
Has anybody ever had an issue with the fan shroud touching and tearing the first few layers? love the video by the way, nice and clear explanations.
It's likely not seated right. Loosen the screws and tilt the entire hot end. Or, then fan itself, back a smidge.
Thank you! Just checked everything you went over aside from the slicer settings and my prints are already night and day ! Going to try your recommended slicer settings after this test print. I was most defiantly a victim of extruder wobble lol
I love your channel and content. Thank you for your informational, problem solving, and upgrade tutorial videos for Ender and Bambu printers. I think my favorite thing is that you are not doing the overly-enthusiastic performative personality and presentation. You always seem mildly annoyed by existence itself, and I appreciate that. You're authentic, and I am more likely to trust your opinions when you both like or dislike something.
Thanks so much. I am NOT a fan of TH-camr Nonsense... The fake reviews, the "TH-cam Face" thumbnails, the fake excitement of a 9 year old on Christmas, the 42 second animate heavy metal intro. Drives me nuts. I make chill video content for Adults, and people that don't want to get a headache, while trying to learn something. VERY nice to see somebody mention that. Happy to have you. Consider supporting my Course, my Patreon, or a SUPER THANKS, to help keep me around. :)
I actually had my print bed rocking about when i first bought it. I didnt notice it until a little later on when investigating an unrelated issue.
Always check EVERYTHING when you get a machine. Only YOU build your printer.
I found a couple of these problems on my printer, just made the ajustments and I'm printing right now, thank you! I'll tell if it works!

Thank you. This is just what I needed and saves me the frustration of scouring TH-cam for each and every thing I need to check on my S1.
Awesome. These comments sure help it feel worth the time that went into this! Happy to help. Update me on anything specic that was happeneing, and what fixed it! Will be great for future visitors.
@@3DRundown I had issues with the rollers not being equally snug when adjusting the eccentric nuts on the Z. I wasn't ware you could loosen the nut you pointed out at 7:50 (th-cam.com/video/pP36ozrfRQ0/w-d-xo.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE&t=469).
your videos helped me a lot since this 10 months after I started this hobby and I bought the s1 because it was the best choise at the moment in our market in Argentina, then I bought another one, now I have 2 and I needed your videos for practicly every single problem, even for the glass bed. So thank you very much. It would be nice if you can post the video for the e-steps explanation, I'm using klipper right now. Cheers!
thank you, I'm one of those who use 3d printing to create ideas, not to do 3d printing with the desire to tinker around with the printer. My Ender 3 S1 was printing worse and worse, i now have another one (i wanted to get a bambu with AMS either way), but now i watched you video and quickly managed to bring my ender 3 s1 back into the game, it was just some tensioning i never thouzght about before! Thank you very much for this short, straight to the point, easy to follow video. One thing I noticed: in your video it is not clear, which nut you tightened for the extruder, because your hand is in front of it every time you screw ^^ but its easy to find the information.
Some of these shots are really tough to get. I *try+ to avoid that, cause it would drive me nuts too!
Great video. Now i jnow all the different parts and where all my adjustments are. Thabk you for this video.

This video has helped me resolve my issues with quality. Have you done a video on speeding up print times while retaining quality?
Thanks so much. Consider adding the HIGH-FLOW kit, and a Sonic Pad to your S1 (I have a High-Flow Kit install video). OR: Get an Ender 3 V3 KE or CR10-SE. However, there are ways to help with prints times, on the slicing side. While I am not somebody that focuses on speed, perhaps a video on that topic would be helpful.
Great video. In video is mentioned that link to SanDisk card will be shared in description. I cant find it . Can you share link to card and adapter for card ?
Forgot!! Thanks for the nudge. amzn.to/3XFwQHG
GREAT CONTENT HERE! I just received this printer for my son, for X-mas and looking forward to setting it up for him. This video will definitely help getting the initial setup perfect, but why can't I save this video on my watch later que???
This is my #2 most watched video ever, and I made it out of neccessity. Please do follow it, and also be sure to follow my Tramming and ABL video for this printer. You'll have a much better experience, getting this all out of the way up front. Also.... I have no idea!?! You should be able to...
You are a life saver for me today.
I just bought one of these so I'm definitely saving this video for later.
Definitly come back and go through it with me. It will pay off.
Thanks for super good tutorial! Clear and explanatory. Saves a lot of time for people who are trying to figure out why their printer prints crap :D I fixed all of those issues mentioned in this video.
Thank you bro!

Happy to help! Greetings from NJ, USA
i just got a hardly used ender 3 s1 and have been trying to set it up, its not my first printer but it is my first with a heated bed, dual z`s and self leveling. my layer height seems ok but iv been having issues with my Z lines, printed 8 rabbits and making slight adjustments each time and still no good. just watched this video and found out i didnt check the 4 screws on the Z rods, they were very loose. just strating a new print so i will find out in 30 mins to see if this has helped lol!!! great videos, very detailed and to the point. keep up the good work!!!
This is a wonderful video, and after it I began to understand the mechanics of the printer a lot more and now I feel more confident)
During the adjustment of the Z-axis rollers, for a long time I could not understand where the small backlash came from, I clamped and loosened those small crossbar screws and the eccentric several times until I realized that it was the backlash of the axis itself on the screw)
Also, I additionally tightened the screws on the wheel axles, because they rest against the inside of the bearing and nothing bad will happen?
Additionally, I want to add about checking the parallelism of Z beams.
I had a discrepancy of 0.5 mm at the top and bottom of the beams.
Loosening the window at the bottom of the printer did not help, the frame did not move in that place, and I just tightened the two bolts a little tighter next to each other, on the side. This was enough for my 0.5 mm, and there was even a margin for a stronger adjustment.
And again about Z. Lifting the axle to the very top, I found that the train was stretched and did not allow it to reach the end. I moved it a little into the mount, and now the axle gets out. It is worth checking in advance before printing on the topmost point.
You are the best. I was able to get a lot of my problems solved. Thanks for your video
Thanks so much. This one took allot of work. Stay tuned for one more thing to check, tmrw!
This was very helpful. Thank you! Earned a new subscriber

Very welcome. My S1 was a royal pain in the ass.
Thanks for your clearly video❤
Very welcome!!
Seriously useful video for beginners like me. Subscribed!
Maybe you can help me but I have absolutely no problems with small prints. But big prints seem to go wrong. Especially when its laying down the first layer. Its almost like its missing whole spots.and when it misses those spots it fucks up the rest of the print. Sometimes it causes my head to get jammed.
Feels like a Tramming and Bed Mesh issue. I would follow my S1 Tramming/ABL video, and make sure you are using "M420 S1" in your GCODE after line G28
Excellent video, thanks!
Welcome!
This helped a lot! Thank you! For me, I think it was the Cura settings that helped the most. I’m getting some layer tears every once in a while and I’m not sure why. The rest of the model looks great, but it’ll be a small section of the layer by the z seam. Any recommendations?
Lemme see it
I’d appreciate that. What’s the best way to contact you? Email, social media?
Can email me. Email is in my ABOUT Section. Can also find me on Instagram, and FB under the same handle. Of course, if you pop onto my course 3DRUNDOWN.COM, or Patreon: www.patreon.com/3DRUNDOWN, it's even easier to reach me.
@@3DRundown I'll email you. Thank you!
I will do my very best to reply and help. I deal with allot. Forgive me if I'm slow.
How would I go about installing and different firmware and which would I choose? I’ve seen people needing to purchase SonicPads for stuff like that and it looked quite daunting.
Also, great video! I haven’t been able to find anyone else doing tweaks to the Ender 3 S1.
Sonic pad isn't so bad. Don't be afraid. It DOES require some new learning, but, it's not too bad. Firmware is pretty easy. You do it via memory card. I would use MRISCOC for the S1 (not the pro). Firmware goes on a card. Card in machine. Turn it on. That's it. You may also need to update the screen, the same way. There is a slot on the screens PCB.
So many videos on the S1 and not on of you is covering the top belt the only thing that I need to adjust as its loose as hell :(
A.) cut it, crimp it tighter, with a copper buckle: amzn.to/3Ujl6vU
B.) Get a new belt & buckle set: amzn.to/3HuFEKp
C.) Get one pre-made: amzn.to/3SykjGw
@@3DRundown legend for the reply thank you very much
This video was so helpful thank you.
Your Welcome! #SuperThanks
@@3DRundown I just have one question where is your video to calibrate an ender 3 s1?
Would it be a good idea if you disassemble the screws of both stepper motors and perform the calibration of the eccentric nut without the assembly of the screws? because yesterday I watched your video and started checking my 3D printer calibration. Then, I noticed that both of the cars where the X axle slides, at a certain height, one of the two wheels stops touching the aluminum profile, but at a different height, the tires do touch the entire profile. Why is that?
This is fairly common. Tiny deviation in the angle of the gantry. I have never worry about it much. If it's getting REALLY tight, or REALLY loose, higher up, you can bring it up, then, adjust the eccentrics there... Some people go crazy, squaring up everything. I can tell you, I have never bothered with that...
Thanks! Any ideas if the X-axis belt is rubbing? As in it's not running centrally on the adjusted knob side...
Rubbing... Is the tensioner itself, or the gear, in some way crooked? I would remove it and reinstall it. I have not encountered this. Elabortate?
@@3DRundown I think it must be the gear angle, having the belt roll to the edge and rub. :( Thanks for your reply Gregg

Really good video thanks
thank very much, excellent explanation of everything !!!!!🤗
🙌🏼🙌🏼 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Nice video! I have heard a lot of uneaven or bad layer lines on the S1 and many people blame the Sprite extruder, in your experience is that true?
I very much dislike the S1. Mine has been a royal pain. That said, lot's of Sprites are out in the wild, on all sorts of machines and people are having good success with them. My S1+, prints massive masks in Silk Silver, flawlessly. I don't think it's the Sprite. I think it's poor assembly and Q/C
For some reason I was pritting a figure and in the middle of it the printer did an offset and started printing a little behind. Why this happened? Lost filament and 7h 😅
You had a Layer Shift. Tighten your belts a bit
thanks Gregg. this video is great. was the print from thingi?

Greetings from NJ USA
I've been tinkering with mine for weeks and I don't think it's a problem where it generates some ripples in the vertical, looking like resonance, making 3mm cubes at 30/35mhs, it's very noticeable and a low speed for this printer. I don't know where else to turn because I've already done countless tests, including testing with very tight, medium, loose straps, etc. The printer is very firm, I disassembled it completely, cleaned all the areas that had dirt on them, thinking it would solve the problem and I can't solve the problem.
Would these changes be the same on a ender 3 s1 pro? Or is there a different process?
They are identical. Only the Screen & Heat break are different.
Are you going to jump into Klipper via Sonic pad or any other means if not?
I have 2 Sonic pad here since launch. Both still in the box.... I am going to have to dip into that eventually. Probably soon. I do run a large FB Group for the Sonic Pad.
@@3DRundown what's the group?
Anyone working on profiles for other printers outside of the creality supported ones and their new update..?
Sonic Pad is like night and day on this printer. I have one on my S1 PRO and it was totally worth it
I think we can all agree we’d rather it be a little too tight than a little too loose.
Neither is ideal. Z-Binding, Belt Binding, etc, due to over tightening is the cause of many problems.
@@3DRundown I’m having pillowing problems with my S1
Ah ha my S1 Pro doesnt do that, per model shown. Thanks Laurie. NZ.
Doesn't do what?
@@3DRundown what he shows on the print he holds up…course layer lines…
Your are saying yours doesn't have bad layer lines. That's good.
Hi, when adjusting the gantry wheels, hogy firm should the single inside wheel be? For me they are super tight and they get tighter as I go lower and lower on the Z axis.
You should be able to turn them with 2 fingers, and should feel firm-ish. Sounds like the sides are a little miss aligned. Loosen their nuts a little. Move Z all the way up and down. Tighten them.
Thank you for this video it helped so much
Welcome! 💯💯💯
I put glass and clips like that once. First time I ran a level test it knocked them off and sent them flying...lol
🤣😂 Use strong ones, and only use about half the clip depth. run an ABL, and adjust them out of the way. Good to go. ✌️
Advice at 09:00 to fix unequal load to the wheels does not work. Loosing the two screws on the rear and tightening them again does not habe any effect...
Wrong. But thanks for playing
@@3DRundown Not wrong, just checked it out. You also did not mention that on the right side (seen from the rear) only one screw is accessible...
