Fixing ANET ET4 3D Printer

Things Hugh wrong with this unit. Simple fixes?

2023-01-26 – Fixes so far


TO-DO:

longer bolts for motors, so washers can be used

get M5x0.8 x ??? long ??? SHCS, SS?

what do with the S-Z pins? is this the problem Hugh mentioned (Z moves down in some sort of autosetting for home? or level?

Also, need to add a drop of RTV silicone or nail polish to keep from loosening?


Raw notes:

to fix anet et4 3d printer
missin one of the main upgrght bolts (M6 x 1?); missing 1 of the 4 bolts for the main uprights; item 1 on the parts list; M6x1?? need to measure; try to find in junk
need washers on 4 bolts that hold the motor on Y? axis; need washers on 4 bolts that hold the motor on Y? axis
might need slightly longer bolts.
this is pretty craptacular.
2 of the connectors have their pasltic pcb sie sockets removed. pins are still presnt. easy to fix with a small spot of rtv silocone or goop or ca
The plastic sockets are missing from the SL and FAN connectors; can work without, but easy fix
one oif the connectors (S-Z) has both the plastic socket and the pins ripped off. should be able to find suitable parts in scrap
