Chapter 1: 3D Printing Technology 3D printing refers to transforming three-dimensional models into physical objects that you can hold and touch. It is also called additive manufacturing because the 3D model is created by “adding” layers upon layers of material until the object is fully formed. Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is the most common method of 3D printing. It is also the method that the GuiderIIS uses. It works by melting plastic material called filament onto a print surface in high temperature.
·From the Cloud The most popular way of obtaining a 3D model is to download it from websites that allow users to upload 3D models that they designed. E.g. : www. thingiverse.com 1.1.2 Slice and Export the 3D Model: Slice software is the software that prepares 3D models for printing and turns them into instructions for the 3D printers. FlashPrint is the slicing software used for the FlashForge GuiderIIS. Using FlashPrint, you can turn .stl files into .g or .gx files for printing.

Press the spring presser, press down the filament for about three seconds and gently pull the filament out. Note: Do not pull out the filament with force as it will damage the gears. If the melted filament has cooled down in the extruder, please repeat the steps above. GuiderIIS User Guide | www.flashforge.
Chapter 5: Build Plate Leveling GuiderIIS creatively adopts three-point intelligent leveling system, which will give clear and comprehensive feedback to users. There are three spring-loaded knobs under the build platform. The distance between the plate and nozzle increases while tightening the knobs. On the contrary, the distance reduces. 5-1 (5-1) Tap [Tools] - [Level] on your GuiderIIS touch screen. Please wait while the extruder and platform finish initial movements.
5-3 (5-3) When it shows that the distance is too big, please unscrew all three nuts under platform clockwise for the same rounds until hearing a steady beep and the [Verify] button appears. 5-4 (5-4) If the distance is appropriate, tap [OK] to second point leveling. If still not, please follow the prompts to adjust the first point screw again till you see [OK] button.

Hold down the Shift key, hold down the left mouse button and drag. ● Scale Rotate the mouse wheel to enlarge or shrink the build plate. ②Set View Allow users to view the object on the build plate.
⑤Show Steep Overhang Click [View]--[Show Steep Overhang]. When the intersection angle between the model surface and horizontal line is within the overhang threshold value, the surface has steep overhang and it becomes red in the software. Overhang threshold value could be set as needed. The default value is 45 degree. 6.2.
6.2.7 Scale Select the target object and scale the object by the following two methods: Method 1: Click the [Scale] icon on the left, hold down the left mouse button and scale the model. The corresponding values will display near the object. Method 2: Click the [Scale] icon on the left and then enter into scale values in X/Y/Z axes positioning.

③Y Plane ④Z Plane 6.2.9 Supports After loading the model, click [Edit]--[Supports] or click the Supports icon directly, then you will enter the support edit mode (as shown in the picture below). Click [Back] to exit when you finish editing. 6-10 GuiderIIS User Guide | www.flashforge.
①Support Options Click the Support Options, an option box will appear, supports options include “treelike” and “linear”, when choose “treelike”, click [OK], then it will generate treelike structure; when choose “linear”, click [OK], then it will generate linear structure; if it is a model with supports, when you choose one of the supports options, software will judge whether existing supports need to be deleted or not on the basis of the type of existing support, and will pop up the corresponding prompt to
highlight the support review). Loosen the left mouse button, if support column doesn’t meet with model, then support will be generated on origin and terminal point (the highlighted preview support won’t generate support structure ) ④ Clear Supports Click [Clear Supports], all supports will be deleted. The operation can be repealed via clicking [Undo] or pressing the shortcut key Ctrl+Z. ⑤Delete Supports Supports will be deleted once clicking the [Delete] button.
⑤Raft: This function will help the model to stick well on the platform. ⑥ Wall: During dual color printing, this function will help to clear the leaking filament of another extruder. ⑦ Brim: Expand the outline of model’s bottom layers to a Brim which helps anchor the edges of the model to the plate to avoid warping. ⑧Resolution:You have three resolution solutions (with default setting)to choose from, high resolution is corresponding with slow printing speed, opposite for the low resolution.
c. Combine Infill: You can select the layers for combining according to the layer thickness. The combined thickness should not exceed 0.4mm. “Every N layers” is for all the infills while “Every N inner layers” is only for inner infills, which generally can save print time. 6-13 ● Speed a. Print Speed is the moving speed of the extruder. Generally, the lower speed is, the better print you will get. For PLA printing, 80 is recommended. b.
6.2.11 File Menus 6-14 ①New Project Click [File]--[New Project] can build a blank project. If there is an unsaved modification on previous project, then it will inform you whether the modification needs to be saved or not.

Chapter 8: Supports and Service FlashForge team is on standby and ready to help you with any challenges you may have with your Guider ⅡS. If the issues or questions are not covered in this User Guide, you can seek for solutions on our official website or contact us via telephone. There are solutions and instructions to common issues that can be found in our knowledge base. Have a look first as most basic questions are answered there. http://www.FlashForge.
Chapter 9:Basic Questions and Answers Note! Do not disassemble the printer for maintenance on your own without authorization, or it may cause unnecessary loss! Please contact Flashforge after-sale engineers and use correct instruction and method to maintain. 9.1 Extruder shakes from left and right when printing. Step 1. X-Axis motor cable has loose contact: Reconnect the X-Axis motor cable to check, if problem remains, replace with new X-Axis motor cable. Step 2.
sensor wire, if problem remains, replace with new X-Axis sensor wire. Step 2. If Step1 not solving, trigger iron piece of the X-Axis sensor has dropped off or has problem: Replace with new X-Axis sensor. 9.5 Print result is ellipse when we set to print perfect roundness, and print result is rhombus when we set to print rectangle. Step 1. X-Axis is not vertical to Y-Axis: Check the verticality between X-Axis and Y-Axis,adjust the X-Axis vertical to the Y-Axis. 9.
dry conditions. 2. Filament diameter is too large,causing filament jammed inside teflon tube: Make sure filament diameter is within 1.75±0.1mm. Replace with new filament if not fit. 3. Part of the filament is cracked inside the throat tube or teflon tube when plugging out the filament after print finished or change filament: Disassemble the extruder,clear and unclog the whole parts including teflon tube,throat tube,extruder motor and nozzle. 4.
2. Replace the malfunction motor’s driver board with normal axis motor’s driver board, if the problem is solved, replace the new axis driver board, if the problem is not solved, replace the new axis motor. (2)Axis motor rotates only in one direction: 1. Refer to the steps in 9.10(1),but do not replace new axis motor. 2. Check the corresponding axis limit switch, plug out the joint of the limit switch. 9.11 Touch function on the touch screen does not work well.
speed:40—60mm/s, travel speed:60—80mm/s) 9.14 When doing build plate leveling, touch screen prompts “Please tighten knobs under the platform” when the knobs have already been mostly tightened: Re-do the printer’s extruder calibration and then do the build plate leveling again.
